Letters and Politics - Ancient History Pack

Occasionally I listen to lectures or watch a documentary series that I find extremely important in their educational and inspirational qualities and potential that I am moved to share the files online and via physical discs containing the MP3 files.  The first series of game changers that I came across were lectures by Alan Watts, the Cosmos series by Carl Sagan, and a compilation of speeches and sermons by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  I uploaded these to my blog, Google Drive, and burned them to discs so that I could distribute them to friends and others. (In the case of Cosmos, which is a ‘made-for-TV’ documentary series, I converted the videos to audio files, and thanks to Carl Sagan’s exceptional narration and elucidation, I feel that not much is lost on the listener for want of the documentary visuals).  There are several other series that I hope to help share in this manner.  They include the ‘PBS Digital Studios’ Eons series, a compilation of Dr.  Jordan Peterson lectures, and a controversial series on Anthropogenic climate change.  With each series, I have tried to improve the aesthetic presentation of the MP3s compilations as well as become more efficient at burning and packaging them.  The latest series, The KPFA Ancient History Pack, originated from the Bay Area’s most valuable radio station – 94.1 FM KPFA. The interviews are compiled from the Letters and Politics program, and I received them as a ‘thank you’ gift for donating to one of their fund drives.  You can listen to and download the lectures by clicking here, or, if we happen to cross paths I can give you one.  Below are some photos of what I thrown together and some behind-the-scenes pictures of where all the magic happens.
