“Liberty” lyric video by Richard Del Connor.

This SEASON 2 of the podcast series, RICHARD DEL CONNOR PHILOSOPHER POET, is Richard explaining the stories behind the songs he was writing and performing while attending UCLA and working as a cinematographer making music videos, movie special EFX, and shooting concerts in Los Angeles arenas and night clubs for local magazines and newspapers as a member of the Newspaper Guild #69.

========

When I was a young hippy from 1966 to 1970 before I was exiled to Newfoundland, I believed that people over the age of 30 are corrupt and destructive to the environment and dishonest.

Other than myself and any hippies that are still alive we can easily see from the way people in the United States VOTE and LISTEN to liars and TAKE AWAY the rights of women… that 41% of Americans are DISHONEST, GREEDY, and EVIL people. Surprisingly, that includes women, Mexicans and black people who vote for Trump, Grassley, Rubio, and many other despicable people in the American House of Representatives and Senate.

Apparently, America is as evil in 2025 as it was in 1970.

This EPISODE 017 includes Richard reading a new poem, “Our Corruption” about Foxy Maggots.
