Recorded December 19th, 2022 in Chico, CA The Porters Ade Porter (Son) Anthony Porter (Father) Show Notes: In episode, The Porters return from an autumnal break to converse around the Christmas Tree.

The conversation then proceeds into the winter night as APP senior talks about his distinctions between the words 'negro, black, and African-American' and how he relates to them, personally. / Christmas / Is the Santa myth a good thing? should we keep it going? / power of stories / Musings on the symbolism of winter, gifts, ornaments. / 'negro, black, and african-american' / euphemism treadmill / affirmative action / the relative power of language /daryl davis / history of Ade's name / KwanzaaEmail: theporterspod@gmail.com Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6yV05F4vPJZXBTjZOFJJPt Youtube: https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCKFzH5yNLB0HSHRaIbAmECw RSS: https://rss.com/podcasts/theporterspod/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/theporterspod/ #podcast #chicoca #northerncalifornia #fatherandson #anthonypeytonporter #adesolapeytonporter #adeporter #monuments #architecture #overpopulation #underpopulation #primitive #civilized

Recorded September 19th, 2022 in Chico, CAThe PortersAde Porter (Son)Anthony Porter (Father)In this episode, The Porters begin the conversation trying to recall their earliest memories, sparking themes of early dangers, joys, and dreams. As connections between their memories began to reveal themselves, the spirit of 'Protection' emerged. The idea began to guide the APP's towards talking about their personal relationship with 'Protection', and eventually towards trying to articulate its importance, and Man's archetypal role as The Protector.Show Notes:/ The Porters recall their earliest memories./ Danger, Dreams, Dogs./ Man as protector, father as protector./ It's helpful for a boy to see a man close up./ The importance and utility of having a mother and father./ Father as both internal and external protector for the family unit./ Quality control as an alternative frame for protection./ The protector arrives and then you just decide how far it goes./ Ways of de-escalating a situation./ The next OS of man has to integrate the role of 'The Protector' psychologically and spiritually./ Discerning defensiveness v protection.#podcast #chicoca #northerncalifornia #fatherandson #anthonypeytonporter #adesolapeytonporter #adeporter #protection #dreams #memories #men #man

Recorded August 29th, 2022 in Chico, CAThe PortersAde Porter (Son)Anthony Porter (Father)The idea of 'The Human Monument' loomed over this episode. We began below the earth with Ade's story of visiting caves in the California foothills. We made our way to ground level as we talked of the primitive and where it fits in with civilization, which introduced a dream of architecture. We then proceeded to circle around the vision of 'Humanity as a Monument', reacted to it, and began to try and chew on what that might mean. We then finished off with Ade praising The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand as a prime example of how we might build a True Human Monument.Show Notes:/ Ade talks about visiting Moaning Cave in Vallecito, CA/ Diet, Vegetarianism, Meat, Identity/ Ade's eating meat again after 11 years/ Civility vs Primitivity/ Architecture as a metaphor for human progress and civilization/ If humanity is going to be a true monument it must be built upon the primitive, not in spite of it./ Is progress inherently good?/ Overpopulation, underpopulation./ Are humans an invasive species?/ The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand as an example of an ideal integration of man and nature / civilization and primitivity.Email: theporterspod@gmail.comSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6yV05F4vPJZXBTjZOFJJPtYoutube: https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCKFzH5yNLB0HSHRaIbAmECwRSS: https://rss.com/podcasts/theporterspod/IG: https://www.instagram.com/theporterspod/#podcast #chicoca #northerncalifornia #fatherandson #anthonypeytonporter #adesolapeytonporter #adeporter #monuments #architecture #overpopulation #underpopulation #primitive #civilized

Recorded August 15th, 2022 in Chico, CAThe PortersAde Porter (Son)Anthony Porter (Father)'Asking For More'This episode began in usual Porter humor and then progressed into a somewhat more somber and slow tone as Anthony shares insights he's had recently, the likes of which happen to be deeply relevant to Ade in his life, as well. Go figure. Whispers of mortality can be heard in the conversation, as the APP's, in their own ways, take more deeply to heart the fact of themselves in time. The episode ends, ultimately, on a more positive note as they both try 'Asking For More' out loud.Show Notes:/ Anthony asks for a raise and has a revelation about himself./ 'Being Green' is actually much more beastly than people grant./ It's lack of ambition that makes things worse, not the other way around./ Anthony asks Ade 'where do you see yourself in 5 years? 1 year?' Ade struggles a bit to answer, but manages it./ 'Why Metal?
