The End Of Series One

 Change is afoot.

The Laird, your faithful narrator, is reincarnating, a new character, a new voice. Naturally the material will change a little, there may be a more Australian feel from this new The Laird, but the format and the soundtrack and all will continue.

The End Of Series One and Daniel is the latest MATL episode, an announcement, an introduction, a poem.

Thank you for supporting this independent podcast, stick around for Series Two, more of the same, but different. If you want to help the show relaunch with a push start why not share your favourite episode on social media? Rate, review, follow, it all helps. Thank you!

Trump - Their King’s Touch

 Musetrap And The Laird are wary of opinion politics, they want no part in it. Destructive, divisive, dangerous, in the end futile. However there is a point where saying something against the idiocy of fascism is required. 

Trump - Their King’s Touch is a short rant about the mob wagging the buffoon, because no despot becomes a despot on their own. Like lightning, fascism strikes from the ground up, the figurehead is nothing without the mob.  

The MATL episode titled Pavel Kushnir from earlier this year is also an anti fascism piece. While fascism remans a threat, all who have any voice, no matter how small, must speak against it.

Episode Thirty Two

 Episode thirty two could be the same young man, morning and night.

Wake Up Sleepy Darling, the success or failure of the young man’s appeals for mercy will depend on the mood of his muse. Will they find his desire flattering and met by their own? Or will he just sound desperate and needy? Or it may depend on the age of the relationship, weeks or years.

Detective Camembert, late night lonely paranoia, or a young philosopher following the moonlight towards perspective?

Episode Thirty One

 Themes and variations, they run through generations just as they run through art. As we mature we become aware of the themes of our lives, see that many are handed down directly from our parents. We create our own variations on those themes, pretend they are new themes, but they’re mostly not. 

What themes are you passing on? What themes have you inherited, but would rather not pass on?

Episode thirty one, To Wilfred, an old house, old themes, trying to see those themes clearly.

Episode Thirty

 As we learn more of our planet, more of our universe, we’re compelled to alter our understanding of the word language.

Episode thirty, Drinking Gum Tree Words, is a short chat about language and communication. For humans language and emotion are often closely connected, even the most austere instruction manual can make us feel things. Learning that language is so much more than we once thought it was can only make us feel more broadly and more deeply, make us feel more connected with everyone and everything.
