So, Syzygy. What can I say? It sounds like what the Boze speaker used to say when D would connect his phone - then named Ziggy. I did look up the term, which real and the definition is as follows:

Syzygy is a straight-line configuration of three celestial bodies. Syzygy is also a term used by Carl Jung to mean a union of opposites.

I swear, any time Jung is referenced these days I reminisce about Pysch 101 and how I was going to become a therapist. But life didn't work that way so now I'm reading a book called The Myth of Repressed Memory and another called Quantum Bigfoot and trying to figure out a way to create content around them so I can do actual research and then share it with y'all. It's not helping people 1:1 but it's something. I think. Let me know if you'd be interested in a mini-series...

Anyway, back to Syzygy. What can I say except Boom Da Boom? Go check out Daive's playlist he updates weekly but rarely mentions. There's a great song for this week :)

Other things...sex kits for cars. Wheeler-Nicholson and Duchovny having so much on-screen chemistry I wasn't shocked they actually dated for a time. A short bit about the satanic panic - also a point of fascination for me (and everyone). The coolest teenage witches/satanists/planet pawns I've ever seen.

It's a good episode. We had a lot of fun. Go listen if you haven't yet. Which would be wild if you've read this whole thing but not listened.

Oh! and if you could rate and/or review or share your favorite episode with someone that would help us a lot. We've been doing this mostly as a hobby for a bit, but I'd like to get us a second mic and start exploring deeper topics (like repressed memory, cryptids, satanic panic, etc) so support would go a long way in helping us create more.

Thanks so much for listening and reading.
