  • Where The Hood At?
    Jun 5 2024

    What's good world, we back from the crypt with some more hood philosophy shit, and on this episode I'm talking ancestral knowledge, jiu jitsu, Islamic cults, horror movies and... my experience being a substitute teacher?!

    Yeah dawg, it was a fun ride, and I break down how all of the aforementioned are related through that one experience.

    We are in the midst of the Toxkatl veintenna and one thing it teaches us is the importance of applying heat and energy in our lives to ensure we blossom into the best versions of ourselves in hopes of being the nourishment the communities that come after us will need to thrive.

    This goes heavily against the mediocrity and comfort we are told to cherish in modern times (our ancestors for sure would not have been fans of the fake-woke 'progressive' left homie), and they remind us of the importance of staying physically, psychologically, emotionally, and intellectually strong to ensure we are capable of carrying out such a monumental task.

    What's good world, we back from the crypt with some more of that hood philosophy shit, and on this episode of the podcast I'm running back some of the happenings from the last four months that it's been since the last episode.

    I'm talking a little ancestral knowledge I've learned along the way, the significance of Xipe Totec, the influence of The Smiths, The Cure, and post-punk in general in the Xicano/a community and how wild it is that others are just finding out about that, why cholo culture being appropriated is mad cringe and... Donnie Darko.

    That movie is dope as hell, I use it to teach a lot of different parts of philosophy in class like time travel, free will, and the absurd to name a few - some of the real horrifying shit in life when we seriously pause to consider it.

    Stay woke fam...

    What's good world, we back from the crypt with some more of that hood philosophy shit, and on this episode we got lots to talk about.

    For starters, one of the Epstein lists has been released, and rather than talk about the human trafficking element side of it, I go in on the effect it's had on undermining the sovereignty of the United States instead.

    Don't get me twisted, the trafficking and exploitation of children is unquestionably reprehensible and the sickos that engaged in these actions deserve punishment to the fullest extent imaginable, but belying this is the real root of the problem that some Blue Anon MF'ers are still trying to dismiss.

    The US straight up has been bought and sold homie and the hustle only exists cuz our politicians were abusing their power, and that's the issue few are discussing. I got you though, and offer a little hope in the form of ancestral Nahuatl ways that show why such leadership is disgusting as well as how we can potentially fix it so we can build a better world from the smoldering ashes of this one.

    I close off by pulling a complete 180 and going in on some psychoanalytic film analysis on Belly, as mentioned in the previous episode. That movie is mad philosophical and deserves its flowers in my humble opinion, and DMX and Nas team up with Hype Williams to give us a masterpiece on what it's like to navigate the struggles of the hood.
