KunstlerCast 256 — A Conversation with John Michael Greer

KunstlerCast 256 — A Conversation with John Michael Greer

JHK’s conversation with the excellent John Michael Greer, author and blogger about where we are now on the arc of collapse and what the mood of the culture is. Greer’s many books include The Long Descent, Green Wizardry, After Oil, The Wealth of Nature, and Not the Future We Ordered. His newest, Star’s Reach, is a novel set 400 years ahead in America’s neo-medieval future. He blogs weekly at TheArchdruidReport.Blogspot.com.

The KunstlerCast music is “Adam and Ali’s Waltz” from the recording Waiting to Fly by Mike and Ali Vass.

    Here is an interesting article on the plan to replace the dollar as a reserve currency http://www.voltairenet.org/article175038.html – they go back to 2009

    The novel sounds interesting – will definitely read it.
