Episode 024: In the Interests of the Brethren

Listen Now





Episode 23 was all about Masons and their struggle with their Grand Lodges as they seek to remake themselves for today's needs. But after listening to it, it was mostly me scolding both sides for letting things get to this point.

That's not what this show is about though is it? It is not what you guys expect. We're looking for solutions.
So with Episode 24, we're getting a little more philosophically aligned with our foundations. Episode 23 is in the vault and there it will stay (for the time being, anyway). So in place of it here is a classic Masonic short story by Bro. Rudyard Kipling, "In the Interests of the Brethren."

We've also got brand new theme music, courtesy of Geoff Smith. Let me know how you like it.

I loved the story, it shows what freemasonry truly is, and it's sad that so many brethren have forgoten what freemasonry is.
