    Necrophilia: Not Illegal in California

    This week on the podcast, we’re digging into a topic we cannot believe we haven’t already covered… bringing some SPOOKTOBER energy to your February, we’re talking Necrophilia. We’ll get into what we know about the origins of the concern and… eh, practice as well as some more current accounts. Because turns out, it’s still not illegal in every state.

    WHAT THE FUPDATE: Hikikomori

    In this week’s FUPDATE, we’re digging into a severe form of social withdrawal that the Japanese are calling Hikikomori. The term, mostly used to characterize adolescents and young adults, describes folks so withdrawn that they may become recluses in their parents' homes, not even engaging with the family they live with. Certainly there is big COVID energy around this, but there are also generational divides being highlighted… kind of like that time someone said millennials could buy a home if they just stopped buying all this avocado toast.

    Neuroplasticity: Science’s Attempt to Manifest

    This week on our SZN 10 PREMIERE (!), we’re looking to dust off the copy of The Secret we bought in 2005 as we talk Neuroplasticity and it’s *proximity* to manifesting. With all these TikTok’s saying that we can call our fate to us, we ask about the psychology behind faking it ‘til making it. Does envisioning the life you dream of or even going as far to live parts of it, actually affect your brain? We’ll get into it… so shut up, we’re manifesting!

    Left Behind: Recapping the Rapture

    This week on the SZN FINALE (!) of the podcast, we’re watched the 2000 Christian cult classic, Running Out of Time, so you don’t have to. Based on a best selling 1990s novel, this story is full of loose ends and Christian propaganda that we truly cannot wait to share as we follow out protagonist played by Kirk Cameron, of Growing Pains fame, through a sudden spiritual awakening. Buckle up because the rapture is predictably unpredictable as portrayed during peak Y2K.

    Capitalist Hellscape: Working More Than Medieval Peasants (No, Seriously. We are.)

    This week on the podcast, Jaimi is hitting us with some hard truths. Sure we can understand as we mature and have more responsibilities, stressors, and the like that we have less free time. But does the working force actually have less time than even just ten years ago? We dig even deeper to contemplate Medieval times— did you assume those folks were constantly working just to survive? We might have… and we hate to break it to you but… 1450 is looking pretty good right about now.

    WHAT THE FUPDATE: Personal Narratives

    On this week’s FUPDATE, we get into the business of the stories we tell ourselves. Just in time for the holidays, we’re reflecting on the narratives family members and friends seem to hold about us, how we can regress as a result, and what our personal narrative even might be. Do the stories we tell really convey what we want people to see in us? The good news is that there actually is some research about that… And we’ll tell you all about it.
