Is this the best or the worst podcast episode ever?  Or does it simply exist ?

Listen in as Travis Turqueza and I say words like : American Gods, The Jesus Multiverse, Pet Sematary Rules, Castlevania, Doogie Kamealoha, White Guilt, Anger + Ancestors, acting levels, death throes, Revelations, LAPA, Super Ego, and dreams.

We get into Adventures in Podcasting, the MCU, Musashi Culture &  living on an island, and divining the Oracles of Your Life. Towards the end of this episode, the third mystery voice called "Your Name" does an impromptu take over / review of Disney +'s "What If..." series w/ Travis, while I fill a UFO resin molds.  

We also ask questions like : What is a Pocket Pueo?  Know anyone who works in glass? What is Love? and should it break your heart?  Plus : SO. MUCH. MORE.

Truly, we offer No Answers, only More Questions !

Here is the trailer for our 9 part pumpkin-spice-season series : Carrie On My Wayward Son . Last episode airs on Halloween ! Sunday, October 31, 2021

In this episode I read my poems : Lono as The Long White Cloud (6:10) & Garden Speak (I wrote this one in 2018, not 2016 as I guessed in episode).  My poem Garden Speak (26:56) is a full 5 minutes long ! However I think it's my favorite poem so far and is worth listening to even if you don't want to listen to the entire episode, the time stamp is : 26:56, as aforementioned.

I also talk about re-imagining The Emperor card, meat snorkels, why I love the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe, which I mistakenly refer to as "The Marvel COMIC Universe" the entire episode, 3 Tiny Desk concerts ( IDLES, Erykah Badu, Lido Pimienta ) and ask the question : What is Divine Masculinity?  

Here is a link to the Hawaiian Online Dictionary, Nā Puke Wehewehe 'Ōlelo Hawai'i, that I love !
