In this episode of Cosmosis, Kelly and Jay sit down with author Joshua Cutchin to explore the provocative ideas behind his latest book, Fourth Wall Phantoms. Known for his groundbreaking work at the intersection of folklore, consciousness, and high strangeness, Cutchin examines the unsettling possibility that fictional characters and narratives might sometimes step into our reality. Together, they dive into the porous boundary between fact and fiction, the role of screen memories and trickster phenomena, and how narrative structure itself can shape extraordinary experiences. From “fictional incursions” to the power of the imaginal, this conversation challenges our assumptions about reality—and the stories that define it.
