Why Are You Like This?

This week on the podcast, psychology and ghosts are having a bit of a crossover as we dig into Haunted People Syndrome. Here again to talk about the syndromes you didn’t know you were interested in as we discuss what some have defined by recurrent and systematic perceptions of anomalous subjective and objective anomalies. Whew. What a mouthful. We’ll breakdown the paranormal— when is a ghost just a ghost and when is someone truly haunted?

On this week’s FUPDATE, we are talking all things FIRE. If you’re not familiar with the acronym you may still have heard a thing or two about Financial Independence, Retire Early— even if it was just on your social media timelines. There is a lot more to this philosophy than what’s on your For You Page, and we’re here to break it down.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year again on the podcast, as we begin our favorite annual tradition of SPOOKTOBER.

This week on the podcast we’re dishing into yet another secret government project. We’ll recount the story of Joseph McMoneagle as he gets recruited to partake in a US Army project that centers itself on psychic abilities. We’re finding objects in the middle of nowhere this week and honestly not questioning it.

This week on the podcast, Austin goes to the art museum and Jaimi, a person who has never played Pokémon Go, explains it. We’re talking all about experiencing life and art through our phone screens— and sometimes being forced to experience it through someone else’s. When is it okay and can you really appreciate anything when you’re looking through a digit camera?
