Extraordinary Discourse 070 Special: The World Owes You A Living 6
59.38 minutes








Today's Extraordinary Discourse Special is Episode 6, the final episode of The World Owes You A Living suite, a 6-part Millennial Associational Documentary.


Finale. Here we employ our leisure to step out from the Hades of today's work world to survey the broad prospect. What news from the islands? We hear overarching philosophical and deep poetical views, we harken back to Athens and consider the freedom from livelihood they considered a self-evident requirement for citizenship. We recall the great drama of the soul, responding to the Sufi Khidr (guide), "man of bright prospects, leave your work and meet me at the riverside."

Jack Saturday 's The World Owes You a Living is like the wonderful audio
montage artistry of a Firesign Theater or a Ken Nordine, but with a
discernable political point. Highly recommended.

 "I have listened to The World Owes You a Living over and over again. The CDs deftly strip away the many layers of brittle toxic and dangerous lies told to us about the nature of work. The hundreds of clips of interviews, news stories and commentary are arranged in a way that the CDs are a pleasure and not an effort to listen to. Anyone who wants to know why society is f…ked should check these out. If you can’t afford to buy them for yourself, find some   friends to share the cost or ask your local library to buy them."
C. L'Hirondelle
Founding member of Livable Income For Everyone (LIFE) society and coordinator of the Victoria Status of Women Action Group

This’ll Dig Ya In The Intellectual Ribs       The real underlying currency of our world is not gold, nor bureaucratic fiat, nor even military might. The real underlying currency of our world is narrative, and the ability to control it. Everything always comes down to this one real currency. If you look at what all these think tanks, NGOs, media outlets and grant making networks that billionaires pour their money into actually do, it ultimately boils down to controlling the dominant stories that people tell about what’s going on in their world.

We Could Play Today! Deconstructing work, school, development-- and much more! We assumed that nothing would be published from the very beginning. So the private world of my friends became the center of our artistic activities, rather than the public world of publishing, media, universities and literature. Allen Ginsberg SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In 1878, Thomas Edison perfected the phonograph, a machine that could record sounds and play them back. There had been some primitive prototypes before, but his version was a major improvement. And what were the first sounds to be immortalized on Edison's phonograph? The rush of the wind in the trees? A dramatic reading of the Song of Songs? The cries of a newborn infant? Nope. Edison recited the nursery rhyme, "Mary Had a Little Lamb." When you make your own breakthrough in communication sometime soon, Scorpio, I hope you deliver a more profound and succulent message. Rob Brezsny, Free Will Astrology the poem...

Glimpses And Highlights Meet On A Train     There are many, many nouns for the act of looking - a glance, a glimpse, a peep - but there's no noun for the act of listening. In general, we don't think primarily about sound. So I have a different perspective on the world; I can construct soundscapes that have an effect on people, but they don't know why. It's a sort of subterfuge. Walter Murch
