Where can you listen?

A new podcast on the nature of belief — as well as magic, machine learning, and murder. Journalist Joseph L. Flatley explores the connection between Renaissance magicians, coercive cults, the advertising industry, and the algorithms that dictate so much of what you see and hear. Along the way, The Inner Empire follows a strange historical trail through the Golden Dawn and Aleister Crowley, Timothy Leary, Werner Erhard, the digital counterculture, recovered memory, and the modern UFO disclosure movement.
