S10 Ep38: The Rapture That Wasn’t


Listen Later

This week on Radio Labyrinth Tim is out sick, but the rest of the gang dives headfirst into the latest failed prophecy: The Rapture That Wasn’t.

Apparently, September 23, 2025, was supposed to be the big day. People were selling cars, homes, and cashing out like Blockbuster stock in 2010. But—spoiler alert—we’re all still here. So why do people keep falling for these very specific “end of the world on Tuesday at 4pm” prophecies?

We break down the history of doomsday predictions, from Harold Camping’s 2011 miss to the Millerites’ “Great Disappointment” of 1844, to Heaven’s Gate and Hale-Bopp, to secular versions like Y2K and the 2012 Mayan calendar scare. It’s always the same pattern: finite, dramatic, and always a letdown.


📺 Views or Snooze this week:
* The Lowdown (FX/Hulu, 9/23) – Sterlin Harjo’s Tulsa neo-noir with Ethan Hawke.
* Alice in Borderland, Season 3 (Netflix, 9/25).
* Chad Powers (Hulu, 9/30) – Glen Powell as a college QB in disguise.

🎬 Staff Picks:
* Jeff: Task (HBO/Max) – a gripping Philly-set drama.
* Lizzie: The Blues Brothers (classic comfort).
* Dustin: Young Frankenstein: A Mel Brooks Book.
