This episode is an engaging discussion with Luqman Muller, an addiction counsellor and intellectual based in Stuttgart, Germany. The conversation delves into the complexities of the German identity while examining the impact of the World Wars on the country and how it has effected the country's collective mindset. Luqman sheds light on the connection between anger, addiction, and the pervasive undercurrent of pain in German society and how it can be extrapolated across the world. The exploration extends to German music, literature, and history, unraveling the layers of sociology and mass psychosis that have shaped the nation's narrative. This episode questions not just the surface manifestations of addiction but, more crucially, its underlying causes – probing into why the pain persists and how it intertwines with the broader sociocultural fabric. This is a unique perspective on Germany's past and present and an enlightened view towards its future.  To learn more about Luqman Muller and his projects click on the links below: Luqman's Linkedin Al Mudmin Website Al Mudmin Instagram
