    Sky King's Myth

    Sky King is a podcaster, social media marketer, and entrepreneur. His obsession with how the media programs and shapes our reality led him down the path of understanding media manipulation, realizing in 2016 that podcasting was escaping the standard media model. Sky has made it his mission to continue allowing podcasts to stay outside the influence of advertising and keep their content sincere. His podcast Sky King's Mental Playground focuses on the tension between centralized and decentralized systems, specifically on propaganda, financial systems, and political systems.   You can listen at skmp.supercast.com or follow Sky on Twitter @consumersky or Instagtram @iamaskyking.   This episode is brought to you by the Dharma Artist Collective. This is the place for artists to reclaim their attention and use it to turn their art into their vocation.   Erick Godsey is a writer, podcaster, and teacher. As a former founder of Fit For Service, he has been called a cult leader and he agrees. He has gone on to start a new cult called the 'Dharma Artist Collective' where he helps artists and entrepreneurs reclaim their focus from the infinite digital casino in our pockets. He has taught thousands of students over the last decade, specializing in Jungian psychology, dreamwork, and how to live a soul-led life in a collapsing culture. He doesn't respond to emails but he writes semi-regularly on Substack and Instagram @erickgodsey. He is the host of The Myths That Make Us podcast and author of The Art of Dharma. He lives in Austin, Texas with his wife Caitlyn and their two huge cats, Arcana and Astraeus.   Follow Erick Godsey: Website: https://www.erickgodsey.com Blog: https://www.kathedraling.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/erickgodsey/ Newsletter: https://erick-godsey.ck.page/profile   Support the Podcast: DAC: https://www.skool.com/lucid-university/about The Art of Dharma: https://www.erickgodsey.com/blog/the-art-of-dharma
