Good analysis, Glen. For those who didn't watch it, the "parallel world" comments had to do with feelings both had after major tragedies in their lives around age 10. Both of their fathers died and, in Cooper's case, two of his older brothers died in the accident with their father. Both felt new

Merle - I am fairly new to the nighttime talk shows... I certainly saw a few handfuls of Carsons and Lettermans over the decades but about 3 years ago I started watching Colbert (nearly) nightly and then began to spill over on the other News-as-Comedy characters.   You mention Trevor Noah, and I h

I watched the interview. But it was a different link (40 min instead of 38). I don't think my reaction was similar to yours. I already believed they're both deep people. But their references to Jesus and fideism really put me off. And I didn't much like the couple of times Cooper attempted to f

I did, Frank, and you should check out Trevor Noah, who the generations behind us listen to and who does an even better job than Colbert and Cooper. On Mon, Aug 19, 2019 at 12:46 PM Frank Wimberly wrote: > ... like empathy is a muscle that atrophies if not exercised > > And which is made possibl

Yes, I think this "savior" narrative was why this particular one was interesting. There are a spate of articles talking about how our modern tech isolates us more than it connects us, or how outrage clickbait gives a dopamine rush and such, or how the incels and the alt-right bois are disaffecte

    Dear all,     a message from a silent Italian friend (I'm a subscriber having been several times in Santa Fe for the SwarmFest and other meetings).     What is very interesting for me is that the "Archangel Michael's Message For You" text reproduces a quite archaic format used in Italy, b
