We talk about our relationship to conspiracy theory, the madness of trying to keep your distance as you turn up more soil to explore as well as obsessively ruminating on death and Willow's terror in the face of crustaceans.

My guests in this episode are Jeremy Puma, Bex Atwood, and Garret Kelly of the Liminal Map project at liminal.earth [https://liminal.earth/]. In this episode we talk about that little voice in your head that insists that everything they told you at church might be right, the unbearable fright of losing personal agency, and the ceaseless drone of anxiety that characterizes an early death. We also talk about the liminal map and how consciousness shapes reality by merely interacting with it.

Marco Visconti [https://www.marcovisconti.org/] is a busy guy and precisely the person that I wanted to get on the show to take a deep dive with into the more advanced depths of occult study and practice and the fascinating history of magic in the west. He is a leader in the world of Thelema and is doing his best to help the tradition shed its vicious past and move properly into the new aeon. In this episode we talk about magic, The Great Work and the lurking anxiety that at the end of our lives we may not have made the best of it all. Keep up with Marco on Twitter [https://twitter.com/azrael2393], become a patron [https://www.patreon.com/marcovisconti] and join his outstanding community of magicians, or catch up with his casual and informative live streams on youtube [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwMJrmbYkOucAa2wKkHgRwA].

AP Strange is a bottomless well of fascinating facts and weird business. His twitter feed [https://twitter.com/AProdigiosus] is endless anecdotes of the incredibly bizarre and links to articles that you're better off for having read. He's also Liminal.Earth [https://liminal.earth/]'s ambassador of high strangeness for the state of Massachusetts, host of the on-again-off-again podcast, The Eternal Void, But With Jazz, and an enthusiast of Discordianism. We talk about the awful burden of being addicted to novelty, the experience of encountering "luminous beings" as a child, and being followed by poltergeist activity.

Larry Clow is a tight bro from way back when that shares my love of fear and horror media and also happens to experience a range of parasomnias. From sleep walking to sleep paralysis, Larry's night time experience is one that he could not always trust to deliver him safely to the next day. We talk about the things that happen to us in those times, the oddly consistent geography of our landscapes, and confusing fabricated memories experienced in dreams with those of our waking life.
