From the Edge of the Circle

Lots going on in today's podcast!  I talk a bit about my perspective on politics - particularly the high-school popularity contest we call the American Election process.  Thanks to Renny over at "Shhh! There Are Pagans in Texas!", I debut the podcast's listener voice mail...thank you MiLady!  In response to her v-mail, I talk a bit about what I did for Samhain this year.  The topic for today's show is about the power of the Spoken Word, with some emphasis on Fiona Davidson, Ronald Hutton and Philip Carr-Gomm..  Speaking of the Spoken Word - I bring back the Spoken Word segment, with my own piece of poetry - "Of Cotton-balls and Waterfalls".  Musical piece for the show is Spiral Dance with their song "Ride the Wind". --- Podcasts Mentioned Shhh!
