Spliffy (not Spiffy) and I discuss sauna philosophies and new american religions Mormonism and Scientology, which like every other religion, were started as a ruse for a sex cult. 

Special guest, M.R. Richardson (Raf), Author of Galactic Mandate books 1 & 2 (A Radical Cause, and The Scream), and his new novel No More Superhumans, sits with us in the Gazebo at clear lake for a fun outdoor pod. See him at SpoCon (Aug 9-11)!

Celebrating 1500 downloads on episode 37 with special guest Rachel! We go full Pop on this one, discussing new albums "Igor" and "When We Fall Asleep Where Do We All Go" by Tyler the Creator and Billie Eilish, respectively, and ask the question can chart topping Pop music be high art?

We celebrate pride month, I compose a Calypso song for the occasion, and Tiffany brings in a report on laws that prevent you from naming your kids certain names in different countries. After discussion, what initially sounds draconian is then found completely reasonable and a good idea. Trigger warning for Libertarians.

I've created a monster!!! This episode has a beginning, middle, and end from 3 different classic prerelease episodes. We discuss my embarrassing anger problem, then we really tear into A Perfect Circle's horrible recent album "Eat The Elephant" (from our first ever recorded prerelease episode!) which of course meanders into how horrible Tool and their fans are, and our experience at the 2001 NIN concert. This was fun to make (though time consuming). See if you can find the edit points! (one is kind of obvious).

"Light the doobie till it glow like a ruby. afterwards they couldn't find the villain, like scooby!" (MF DOOM) Tiffany and I discuss wind turbines, her trip to Pomeroy, and the North Idaho Ruby Ridge incident. This was a pretty good one. 

Spiffy and I cover electronica artist Amp Live, and also Natalie Wynn aka Contrapoints, a Youtube video essayist who covers internet subcultures and socioeconomics with a rich and sophisticated artistic aesthhetic and a thoroughly academic approach.   

Tiff and I tell you where are the good Zip's in town (and the bad), discuss the Arthur Chu documentary on Amazon, and talk about The Fairness Doctrine and why Op-Ed journalism/opinutainment news made America the cesspool it is today.

For our 30th episode, Tiffany tells us about her journey to Seattle to hear Graham Hancock speak.

We go back to august of 2018, back when I just got my new job, and after Tiffany did some camping, we also review albums by Fai Baba and The Uncluded. It's a fun one!
