18 - Red Pill Junkie: Hoaxes, Masks, and Mysteries

Today we're talking with the illustrious Red Pill Junkie about the nature of 'The Other', The Trickster, and incidentally -- The Soul behind the Mask. Join us as we fall down the rabbit hole with Red Pill Junkie.  Red Pill Junkie. Agnostic gnostic, walking conundrum & metaphysical oxymoron (with emphasis in the 'moron' part), the mysterious RPJ leaves a double life: By day he serves as Grand Master in the International Sacred Order of Lucha Libre, but at night he pursues his life-long study of everything considered mysterious and/or 'paranormal' --a term he personally detests. When he's not exploring the web looking for his daily fix of Forteana, he can be found making artsy stuff, fooling around on social media, or offering his services as writer and news administrator at The Daily Grail (dailygrail.com). He also regularly participates in other websites and podcasts like Radio Misterioso and Where Did the Road Go? He impatiently awaits for the return of the mothership —or nuclear Armageddon— in Mexico City; whichever comes first.
