BLASPHEMY
Humans have shown themselves capable of believing almost anything. The amount of information available to us hasn't seemed to quell our insatiable need to create and believe alternate realties, conspiracies, spiritual beliefs, and political ideas. At the BLASPHEMY! podcast, we uncover the very human origins or these beliefs, how they evolved, and the impact they have had, and continue to have, on society and culture.
THE HERO WITH A THOUSAND HOLDS
Exploring our common grappling heritage by diving into the history, culture, roots, and ultimate fate of various folk-wrestling styles around the world – everywhere from the storm-scarred shores of Tierra del Fuego to the steppes of Mongolia to the jagged peaks of the Caucasus mountains.
MISS EXPERIENCE WHITE
With the best of intentions, the narrator of this poetic, seriocomic, three-part podcast, Miss Experience White, summons the Demon of White America, Tyrannosaurus Wonderbread, and his Pearly White Retinue. These magical efforts lead her to an uncomfortable moment of reckoning. Immersive sound design by Earwax Productions plunges the listener into the surrealism of the poetry. Written and performed by Milo Starr Johnson, produced by The Tea Club and Jim McKee. Featuring the music of It Thing, additional music by Omar Ledezma Jr., Dave Mihaly and Daniel Fabricant.
