BUDDHA AND THE SLUT

It's time we finally get PSYCHEDELIC on the show, with a chilling and trippy tale of 12 strangers, demon snakes, and a 9ft Samurai Shaman. That's right — it's fire and brimstone and pants-shitting DMT fun with AYAHUASCA, in a story that had to told on Buddha and Slut — it's VINE OF THE DEAD!!! (FEAT. music from the SOUND FASCINATION Collection by Tobias Tinker)

This episode, I chat with JAMES CURCIO — philosopher, musician, transmedia artist, sensual deviant, and chief brain at MYTHOS MEDIA — on all things creative and philosophical, as we approach the eve of his long-awaited Narrative Machines release! As always, I try to get to the roots of the creative urge, formative year influences, and 'happy accidents' along the way. I hope you'll stick around for the chat, which includes an exclusive music treat right after the show!

MORE QUESTIONS. MORE BLUSHING MORE ANSWERS. Go-to shower songs? Death Row last meal? Getting on TV? A writer’s purpose? The impact of travel? What’s my type? Who put the Bomp in the Bomp-sha-bomp-sha-bomp? And my defining high-school crush? You brought the Q’s, my friends... So I will bring the A’s! Slip on those headphones And smoke ‘em if you got ‘em...

Cats. Buddhism. Life. And Death. Ep#6 is an audio retelling of a story from my childhood. Because of this, I wanted to include a special bonus at the end of this short ep — a free chapter from my audiobook THE CAT'S MAW, which is the fictional version of these same events — featuring DAVID KAYE, along with an original score by TOBIAS TINKER. Thanks for listening, Brooke

Last time I promised you something ‘sexy’ for the next show. Now…’sexy’ can mean a lot of things — exotic, erotic, intense, dangerous, and yes…even pornographic. So, if I’m gonna to go for the gold star and circle all of the above on this multiple choice test? Then I’ll do it with this sordid, scary, and downright scandalous tale of one unbelievable night and morning in Vientiane - the communist capital of Laos - that I will never, ever forget. (NSFW)

It's an epic 90 MINUTE INTERVIEW with the maestro himself — acclaimed composer, TOBIAS TINKER! Tobias leaves no stone unturned in this enlightening and booze-fuelled chat from his cozy studio in the heart of Berlin, Germany. So get comfy, my friends...and let us take you on another journey that's wonderful, strange, and more than a little inspiring!

YOU ASKED ME THINGS. LOTS OF THINGS. I BLUSHED...DRANK...AND THEN ANSWERED! In this week's Q&A, I'll be filling your earholes with responses to queries on: -Monogamy vs Polyamory! - If God's so great, what about skin-burrowing botflies?! - my psych-thriller graphic novel 'Becoming', and how to write stories from a 'dark spiritual' perspective! - which countries/nationalities boast the 'friendliest' ladies! And much, MUCH more!

My first 10-Day 'silent meditation' retreat in Thailand not only kicked my soul in the gut-balls — it made me face a great love's ugly, cancerous curtain call. And it made me remember what truly matters in the End. (FEATURING THE MUSIC OF TOBIAS TINKER) "They say there is no suffering at the heart of all things. That all of space is Here. And all of time is Now. That if you seek it, it will be shown to You. The truth of what Love is. And you only need to see it once to know that it’s REAL"

Expect things both wonderful and strange (and always TRUE) in this new travel, spirituality, and personal journal show. And yes - that was a TWIN PEAKS reference at the top! Which ain’t the worst place for this story, and my very first podcast, to begin... (ORIGINAL MUSIC by Tobias Tinker and Stillness3)
