    This reader is fantastic. The old cassette tape like quality to it gives the stories an added sort-of, dare I say it, "found footage" quality to the story.
    It's like imagining the story from a totally new perspective.

      That's what's so interesting. He had dealings in the occult, and even knew Aliester Crowley. So one could imagine, that perhaps it wasn't all in his head, and was inspired by visions or experiences induced by dark ceremonial magick in the hidden temples of the initiated. Perhaps he DID come in contact with the old God's of the forgotten past. Titans just waiting for aeons to be unleashed upon the earth again, to bring about a new age of darkness,and lay claim to their kingdom once more.

    When you watch this video, you can put a bookmark in a simple way. If you watched till 2 minutes and 30 seconds, then simply leave a comment of 02:30 and RUclips automatically creates a link serving as your private bookmark. Also, for long videos, let's say you listened till 2 hours and 33 minutes and 44 seconds, then simply leave a comment of 02:33:44. And when you comeback to the video, simply click the comment/link you left last time. Hope this helps!

    Anything is indeed possible from past eons of time going back hundreds of thousands or millions on years on Earth. We scarcely know much about the origins of humanity before the last ice age, let alone the very dim past. Truth and facts are always found in thin layers.

      Wayne June has a remarkable voice, but I sometimes feel his voice can overwhelm the story by drawing undue attention to itself. The effect is similar to when opera singers perform folk songs -- their highly developed technique seems too much, too extravagant. That's why I prefer this narrator; he tells the story with a direct simplicity that serves the text, but doesn't compete with it.

On my route home from school there was this long hill that I would fly down on my bicycle fantasising that I was outrunning hoardes of pirates, cutthroats and vagabonds.. only for some local consciousness to invade mine and give me a glimpse of an opponent that was as wide as the horizons and was impossible to outrun or evade..
