THE VAYSE KOFI HAS NOW MOVED OVER TO PATREON: www.patreon.com/Vayse VYS0063 | Animaxxing at the End of the World: The Return of Aidan Wachter Show notes For the final episode of season 4, Hine and Buckley welcome back an all time favourite guest to discuss an all time favourite topic, as Aidan Wachter returns to Vayse to talk about how and why the world is turning to shit right and now, and, importantly, what we can about it. The day after this episode was recorded, tech-fascist, crap-preaching, man-child, Elon Musk briefly became the world's first trillionaire. Two weeks after recording this episode the UK was in the middle of a three day run of record breaking peaks of June heat. Twenty-three days after recording this episode, convicted felon, professional liar, friend of Jeffrey Epstein and current president of the United States of America, Donald Trump, hosted a narcissistic, self-aggrandising, nationalistic $45 million party whilst the US Military continued strikes on Iran, the constitution continued to be eroded by organised governmental corruption and the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool stagnated in an undeniably on-the-nose visual metaphor. In this conversation Aidan sets out some of the myriad issues that the world is facing in 2026, his ideas for how animism may be able to point the way towards a better future and how it may be possible to encourage people to discover, commence on and commit to the multi-generational project, whatever it may look like, that may lead humanity out of the dark and frightening mess that it currently finds itself in...
