For NSP 74, we spoke with Mike Gathers about the politics of Robert Anton Wilson!
In addition, we talked about libertarianism, techno-optimism, the limits of the left-right spectrum, and Mike's recently published book with Hilaritas Press titled, "A Non Euclidian Perspective: Robert Anton Wilson’s Political Commentaries 1960-2005" containing many previously published political articles and interviews of RAW.

Mike Gathers serves as a podcast host and editor at Hilaritas Press where he helped produce the books A Non-Euclidean Perspective: Robert Anton Wilson’s Political Commentaries 1960-2005 and Lion of Light: Robert Anton Wilson on Aleister Crowley. He’s had a career spanning from engineering and management to private practice psychotherapy to executive coaching. He’s currently on a sabbatical with an interest in writing more.
