Yeah it's not good radio quality. Also Alan Moore is inconsistent on whether magic is an individual affair, separate from social relationships, or whether it is a matter of collective interactions. I also think the idea that shamans are the progenitors of all culture,language, consciousness, etc, is a bit anthropological and colonial.

It's funny to see Will so intimidated by Alan though lol. I guess a lot of us get sheepish and unwilling to confront our heroes when they show up in front of us.

All that said, Alan is an incredible author and artist, and I highly enjoy his work
