Blasphemous Rumours - Reverse Karma Footnote

About this episode

This episode is an addendum discussing the lyrical content of Depeche Mode's song 'Blasphemous Rumours' in relation to the previous monologue on Reverse Karma.

This is an addendum to the recent ‘Reverse Karma’ monologue, focusing on the profound lyrical content of the Depeche Mode song ‘Blasphemous Rumours’ from 1984. The scenario portrayed sums up the dynamic I addressed last time around with searing candidness. * If you have found value in my work and would like to support its continuation, please consider becoming one of my Patreon supporters which gets you access to exclusive content that I don’t post elsewhere.
