The Hilaritas podcast on Kerry Thornley


Long car drives are usually my best opportunity to get caught up on podcasts, so yesterday when I had a lengthy commute I listened to the Hilaritas Press podcast on Kerry Thornley, featuring a long interview of Adam Gorightly by Mike Gathers. 

Lots of good information about the Discordian background of the Illuminatus! trilogy, including about how Robert Anton Wilson apparently drew on the Discordian Archives when he worked on the trilogy. There are show notes at the link and a listing of the apps and services where the podcast can be found.

If you want to know more about listening to the podcast, Adam's Historia Discordia website has information on Adam's books that go into topics in more depth, such as Historia Discordia: The Origins of the Discordian Society, Caught in the Crossfire: Kerry Thornley, Lee Oswald and the Garrison Administration and The Prankster and the Conspiracy, Adam's biography of Kerry. For more on Adam and his other books, go here.
