Broadcasts live every Thursday at 8:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.com

A brief look at cowboys and the art of Mark Maggiore, the French Revolution, Germany, and communism.

In the first hour, we delve into the book 'Scalp Dance' by Thomas Goodrich, which provides a riveting account of Indian warfare on the American plains from 1865 to 1879.

We also explore 'The Madness of Crowds' by Charles Mackay, discussing how whole communities can become simultaneously impressed with one delusion and run after it until their attention is caught by some new folly which ties into our current societal issues and the manipulation of information.
Plus smart technology and its impact on our daily lives, questioning whether these advancements truly benefit us or simply serve to control and monitor our every move. We emphasize the importance of beauty and art in our lives, and how they can serve as a counterbalance to the increasing technological intrusion.
