008 - Arizona Black History

It's Black History Month and Phoenix has a lot of important but vanished places where the Black community built what made Phoenix special. What happened to the first Black high school? Where can you still see what was an inclusive inn named in Black motorist guides? And what's with the alligators in Eastlake Park? Find out and enjoy some Count Basie Boogie too.

007 - Trust In Zarathustra, But Tie Your Camel

The story of a mountain shaped like a camel, the struggle between urban development and environmental preservation, the journey of a camel driver from Smyrna, Greece to Quartzite, Arizona, and a whole lot more pyramid tombs than you might expect. From Barry Goldwater to Hi Jolly, with some Waylon Jennings in between, as your host recalls a childhood memory of waiting for Santa Claus at the Smitty’s. Plus, a little musical help from Rich Kids on LSD. BENEATH SUPERSTITION is written and produced by Brodie Hubbard, your friend Hub.

005 - Outta This World

Whether or not aliens exist and UFOs are spaceships isn't what's important, it's the local legends, tourist traps, and even architecture that is built as a result of our fascination with the dark skies. On this episode, we look at the hotels, restaurants, state roads and parks, and media machinations that stem from the neverending flying disc craze. Plus, a word or two about solidarity and empathy with the extraterrestrial and the undocumented, and a visit to the planet Garry Shandling was from, with a little musical help from Frank Black.
