The Narrative Episode 2 - Defining Power
The War is a Story. The Story is a War
Bright Army!
First of all, THANK YOU so much to those of you who watched the debut episode of The Narrative, the first show I’ve led on Badlands Media.
The response thus far has been amazing; we had over 10,000 watching live during the debut and over 8,000 watching last night for the sophomore effort. Not bad for a podcast that’s going head-to-head with Sunday Night Football and on Thanksgiving Weekend.
On The Narrative, we leave readings of the Actual to the side and focus exclusively on the effect of Stories from the past, present and future on the Collective American Mind.
Every week, I’ll be joined by a different Info Warrior as we use a combination of cognitive cyphers, game theory and pattern recognition to more effectively navigate the Info War without succumbing to it.
After all, the War is a Story, and the Story is a War.
On the second episode, I was joined by my friend Ashe in America, and while we were going to talk about a whole bunch of other stuff, we ended up discussing just how far BACK patriot control goes in the Info War, and how to determine the difference between and advantages and disadvantages of abstract versus direct power projection.
It was a great discussion that rabbit trailed into everything from Our Boy Blue to The Dark Knight and back again, and I do hope you’ll give it a watch or listen, if you fancy.
The Narrative airs every Sunday night at 9pm ET, so if you’re liking what I’m trying to do with the show, check back in every week for a new topic and a new guest as we attempt to navigate the Info War together.
In other news, if you missed the mailer on Sunday, I spent a LONG time on my latest long-form, which topped 10,000 words (sorry, not sorry,) as I attempted to distill the story of the Info War thus far and project it as we rocket toward a new American Golden Age not through the lens of a side that’s already won, but rather one that will never get tired of fighting.
Please give it a read when you have some down time this week and share it if you think it could help anyone on the edges of the movement to rebuilt the American Republic we were promised, but never truly saw in our lifetimes.
