194 - There's No Sound I Don't Like, Solitary Mind Games, and Cage-based Parental Strategies feat. Jason Newland

January 31, 2024

Mythic co-founder/cosmic wendigo/mid-wifery doula figure of the podcast, Jason Newland, returns as Tim's tending to highly classified, kinetic-style subterfuge-type affairs. The White House pharmacy is handing out all manner of psychotropics like so many sugary delights on All Hallows' Eve. The more or less death of Pitchfork Media, which once gave Music, a mode of creative expression consisting of sound and silence expressed through time, a 6.8 out of 10 rating. Opioids keep wreaking havoc, but at least were getting some solid dramatic streaming series out of it. Lex Friedman and Ted Cruz propose totally realistic ways to choose between our two favorite and deranged presidential candidates. USA shatters more fun records (beyond opioids) like homelessness, mass shootings, inability to pay rent and just plain ol' 'suffering' in the abstract. Prince Andrew's puppet fetish revealed. AI errors in naming products online: next step in the evolution of the comedic arts? Gas station heroin: good or great? AI generated hallucinogens: key to Jason's dream job? Apex of homosapienkind reached: a person beats Tetris for the first time ever.

This is all to say, we should still feel uplifted by a young kid being cured of their deafness through a new gene therapy. Until next time, keep on avoiding the void—as well as The Noid, naturally.
