1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 The Cat grapples with life's big questions in a super extended go-go mix episode with special guest the sensational Sean Williams, bestselling author of many books and stories, composer and musician (as theadelaidean), all-round Renaissance man, and entertaining meal companion. While Aaron thwacks mandarines at passing trains, Kaaron takes a trip back to the Bishop's widow's snowglobe, and Joseph spies on his neighbours to see what they covet. Sean stresses (a bit too earnestly) that he is not a peeping Tom. Divers issues of character are discussed, as is empathy, hoarding, and 'outside thinking'. Also synchronicity; writing to understand yourself and the world; the hope of life and the acceptance of death. Sean proposes dioramas and a one-second theatre troupe, and gives Joseph a reason not to burn his journals. Aaron puts the theme song to The Neverending Story in everyone's heads – and now it's in yours too! Some of the so-called 'random shit' from this week's episode includes: Sean's story Among The Beautiful Living Dead, available in his collection Magic Dirt Sean's story Team Sharon, available in the same collection. David Cronenberg's The Brood. Yevgeny Yevtushenko's poem 'People'. Check out the episode page for pics and bits.
