Has Tor ever talked about his daily schedule?
Does he tend to work on multiple different projects simultaneously? How so?

I’m curious since I’m trying to ramp up my own content creation and Tor seems to have some trick to keeping up quality without making it take weeks or months per video.

Cheers

So for those who don't know Cadillac Ranch is a roadside Attraction on route 66 in Amarillo Texas featuring 10 classic Cadillacs buried nose first into the ground at the same angle as the Great pyramid in Giza. It was created by a local art collective, the Ant Farm, and funded by controversial local rich man Stanley Marsh III. He also helped fund the Dynamite Museum, a massive public arts project featuring hundreds of parody road signs placed in the front yards of people's homes all across the City of Amarillo, as well as a massive fence around a mesa that makes it look like the top of the mesa is floating. My grandfather actually created the special paint used for the fence to make the floating effect possible! Marsh is a very controversial yet fascinating local figure. This also ties into the story of Brian Deneke, the punk guy that was killed in the late 1990s by football players and the subject of the movie Bomb City. He was one of the members of the Dynamite Museum and helped get those signs placed in people's yards.

I live in Amarillo and nobody has ever really talked about this quirky bit of Americana on YouTube.

Another weird bit of American history that has been a bit overlooked that would make for a great episode is the land scams of the 1950s that led to massive tracts of land in the San Luis Valley of Colorado being subdivided and plotted for residential subdivisions that never came about. If you load up Google maps and look around the area east of Alamosa, there's a ton of dirt roads laid out in what looks to be suburban developments complete with street names, but absolutely no houses. It's a surreal remnant of a forgotten chapter of 20th century land speculation.

Be good deep dive suggestion. I argue this because Marvin made this after a divorce, so its a perspective of his mindset from divorced from Anna Gordy(yes, the sister of Barry Gordy). The tracks just from his musing, his thoughts on the relationship he had with Anna, feels like an hr and change therapy session from the mindset of Marvin Gaye circa 1977-1978

Ok so if i remember Tor said that he doesn't make videos about topics that are already widely covered and (somehow) no-one made a video about him.
If you dont know he was a US political figure who ran for president almost every election (he got the most votes in 1984 i think)
His main organization was the National caucus of labour commities but he also ran the "US labour party" he called his ideology Promethean(maybe) his policy proposals included:
- Nationalising banks and bringing back the gold standard
- The war on drugs but bigger
- Massive infrastructure projects including but not limited to The Bering strait Bridge, some bs with American rivers, replacing all power plants with nuclear ones, fusion tech research
- Building energy weapons in space (according to some sources this influenced parts of the SDI)
-Freezing the debt of the third world (and agriculture also)
-protectionism
-anti-austerity
-he supported civil rights for blacks an women but not for gays( "spread panic not aids" need i say more?)
-he is very anti-malthusian/anti-degrowth, literally writing a book "there are no limits to growth", but also a climate skeptic

He has some connection to socialist movements but that ended by the 70s, was very anti soviet, but very pro-China. He was also fond of Marx but claimed that he was corrupted by Engels the british agent.

He is also at least partially responsible for many modern conspiracies: His most well known one is that the British crown is responsible for all drug trafficking and communism(also claimed that Jefferson invented communism), that they sabotaged the Union and Taiping because they wanted the US and China to be agrarian nations dominated by free trade.

Also claimed that the financial oligarchy went from Venice to the Dutch to the UK; there have been multiple cranks in my own country(and broad eastern europe that have claimed they came up with it but no they stole it fro LaRouche!)

This isn't even half of it! theres also some stuff about cosmism,plato,synarchism, Leo Strauss, music and other crank theories.
I'm not even American i know most of this because they hosted a China-CEE conference in Croatia last year in a economics university where my friend works and they gave out pamphlets that say this but like its a good thing.

Be interesting deep dive for Tor due to how the band tried to do a concept album that ended up as a bomb, the album sold terrible and KISS had a decline in popularity for a while.

I found out THREE of my nephews watch Tor's Cabinert. One of them was somehow unaware I sometimes write for the show. Worse yet, when he found out he went in assuming The Orin Andrew Tain story was real... only I was doing a Mark Twainish exaggeration of the facts. (After all, he knows the influence Samuel Clemens has had on my writing.) He was mad at the reveal that it was one of the lies.

In the latest video on hypnosis there was a section on AGP (autogynephilia) I made a comment on the video almost 2 weeks ago now a little critical of its framing and coming back to the video ive noticed this section was removed? does anyone know what was going on behind the scenes vis a vis the decision to remove that section?

Like would gay woman take over culturely

I think he was mentioned briefly by Tor in that David Wikipedia's guy video.... I think Anger be a good deep dive of the estoteric, stuff he was part of
