You are an old man who thinks in terms of nations and peoples.  There are no nations.  There are no peoples.  There are no Russians.  There are no Arabs.  There are no Third Worlds.  There is no West.  There is only one holistic system of systems, one vast and immane, interwoven, interacting, multivariate, multinational dominion of dollars.  Petro-dollars, electro-dollars, multi-dollars, Reichmarks, rins, rubles, pounds, and shekels.

(music: Debo Band, "Medinanna Zelesegna")

Mike Lilly

Brother I am ready and patient.

Geoffrey long

Still the only podcast I make sure to listen to the night it comes out. Good luck with your health stuff. Stay strong and know a lot of us are looking to hear more dispatches from around the corner.

Hi MJ, glad to have you back. Hope you're recovering well and please take as much time off as you need. We trust you and know that you will be back on the show full time whenever you physically can. What you said about ISIS being a strongarm of US foreign policy reminds me of the recent TrueAnon episodes with Felix where they talk about the state dept. running guns in Libya. As I listen to all these podcasts and read about CIA shit, I sometimes try to imagine what the undocumented conversations over at the pentagon and Langley must be like. It's mind blowing to think that people not far from my front door are in afternoon meetings just casually talking about which terrorists might be most beneficial to their financial interests. I know a lot of people are probably numb to all this, but sometimes it really gets to me. Anyway, thanks for the wonderful episode and we hope to hear from you again once you are feeling well.

I Like Mike!! Welcome back beloved - can’t wait to have my ever-shrinking brain massages by my ASMR of choice (you)

Baily McDaniel

Witty rejoinders aside, thanks for what you do & how you do it. A new D/C perks my tired junkie heart every time. So do take care of yourself. 🙏 You've become very dear to us. Whoever you are, Mr Verbosely Cryptic Podcast Man🫂

Stay away from green tea and booze (could form cysts) drink lotsa water, and try light yoga with oils to get those muscles healing, also weed is awesome for this kind of pain. PEACE on you friend

Geran Wales

Is that all you on the song?

justdave

HOLY SHIT the Afghanistan withdrawal was an arms deal!

uya

ugh im trying to quit valium at the moment. its harder than quitting fentanyl. also dont know if i will even have the option of weening off. good luck man hope to see u on the otherside

uya

also LOL i promise i am only playfully ribbing and truly mean this in a positive light (only clarifying because i am a stranger on the internet so tone can easily be lost) but only you could spend 15 minutes talking about why you can’t spend too much time talking. you really are an author at heart.

uya

love this show, love your personality and im grateful that the universe (while this is admittedly a low bar) was able to organize itself in a way where you could be properly compensated for the great work you do. anyway i really hope your second surgery goes well and you are able to get some proper rest ❤️‍🩹

Eponymous1

Glad you’re back brother. You’ve read The Jakarta Method, right?

Danielle

Sadists with newer magazines, right? Go easy on yourself; leave the rest to them. The gristle, it bursts.

I have chosen to believe mj is actually just a perfectly normal healthy young man that happens to be an artistic genius and has created the character of MJ and this podcast as a complex multi level piece of art. The character ark will be his body slowly collapsing and being replaced by various cartoonist artificial pieces (I already have him fitted out by an enormous set of brilliant white gnashers set within a bleeding and decaying jaw, obviously way too small).

laihall

Take your time bro, you’ve enriched my life and so many others. I’d rather hear you in some relief that know you’re compromising your well-being for me. Praying for a smooth recovery ❤️ tsel ts’íthomé

Padraic C

My balls and benis

Taylor Leibel

Please don't worry about getting stuff out. The subscription's only 5 bucks, and we all would like to see you healthy more than we'd like to see you productive.

c. wrong mills

Best of luck and a good recovery to you. I’ve had about as many oral surgeries as I have fingers; you gotta do what you gotta do with these things. We’ll be looking forward to your return.

John Turnbull

Serious Q: Is there any way to set this up so I pay you up front in 6 month or annual instalments? Would that even be desirable? My hope would be that if enough people did that (I would be willing to, at least) it would alleviate some of the financial pressure you feel here and let you both heal and work in a more relaxed way.

V

we’re just glad you’re here :) godspeed on the journey to feeling better

Divad Kong

A lot of communist type losers on here are saying hey Mike don't worry, chill out, health is important, work to your own schedule etc... What a load of shit. I have you at least a few dollars, I expect you to produce produce produce, and if it doesn't make me squeal so help me God I am going to voice my dissatisfaction in numerous online forums

Wright Foote-Hertz

Hey Mike don't worry, chill out, health is important, work to your own schedule etc... I remain your loyal communist type loser.

Bobby Volcano

A lot of philosophers are talking about Smashmouth these days but who else is talking about having a smashed mouth? Looking forward to the next ep whenever, rest up dude

Trevor

Michael I feel your pain. I experienced a tooth removal that had dry socketed. I had to go to the Government free medical dentist here once in Australia. Had no work and no funds. Not what I call real flash they didn’t even a spittoon to spit into. I remember the dentist looked and spoke like Laurence Olivier from old movie Marathon Man (thick round glasses and all I kid you not). He said after he removed the said tooth in his Laurence Olivier accent. Mr Smith you may feel some pain after the novocaine wears off. He wasn’t wrong. It was the worst pain I have ever been in. People say you don’t remember pain. Which is true in allot of cases. I’ll debate though that You do remember dental pain. I am very glad that I can help with my small donation helping you keep the pain away. By the way thanks for introducing me to the Debo Band. Great music. What a journey that ended up being. The violinist in the band Jonah Rapino sounds interesting. I am going to check the doco “Darkon” on Vimeo he did the soundtrack for it. It truly is a strange world we live in. 😀

Trevor

That’s interesting I went back and looked at a clip of the Marathon Man. I haven’t seen in about 40 years. I always thought that Lawrence German accent was more pronounced?

Renee Leath

You're still more eloquent after major dental surgery than I am on a good day. Getting off benzos myself right now (slowly), fingers crossed you don't have to quit cold turkey. Thanks for the episode, keep getting better.

Nicholas CLARK

Really glad to hear you put something out, Godspeed for a quick recovery - the song at the end is wonderful. Always loved Ethiopian jazz but never heard anything like this - been listening to the full album on repeat all day.

stephen tucker

Echoing everyone else's sentiments but yeah I have always considered it money well spent! Show has changed my life for the better. And am wishing for the best of luck for you.

NEVERDOORS

That's a really interesting understanding of what I had thought was an antiquated term, 'third world'. Never thought about it like that. Keeping you in my thoughts through all that you're going through. Also, fuck your 'job', man. Can't speak for anyone else but you could post nothing for a year straight and I would stay subscribed for your show archive alone. Let me add to the chorus of 'don't push yourself! Much love

Katherine

“The Third World War created the third world” his brain thooo
