Introducing: Ephemeral Season 2
Hey, SYSK fans!
We know you already love great podcasts, so here's another we think you'll enjoy - Ephemeral season 2. Check out the trailer and see for yourself.
About Ephemeral: The best source on our cultural identity is not the official, historical record — ask any anthropologist, it’s the town dump. Ephemera — those things that were just barely saved, and in some cases not saved at all — emanate with secrets we can only glimpse and mysteries we can never completely answer. The stories may be unfamiliar, but the themes are universal; this is a looking glass, a window into our own fragile, material existence that begs the question, “How will I be remembered?”
Listen to Ephemeral season 2 on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts!

Customer Reviews
3D Audio sucks! Please don’t use it!
I’ve been listening since pre-Chuck… Candace Keener and Josh! These last couple episodes with the 3D Audio have been the most difficult to listen to in 14 years!!!!
Quarantine Entertainment
I started listening last summer when I got laid off because of COVID and have been hooked ever since. Now that I'm back at work, I listen to about 8-10 episodes a day and I can't get enough of the fun facts and little tidbits of knowledge that I get to learn about such a wide range of topics. Keep doing what you're doing, Josh, Chuck and Jeri (Geri?)
Lack of sensitivity and research
These subjects are people's reality and often one host laughs at some terrible aspect of a condition or presents it without any compassion.
