The Comet’s Tale

Ty and Caitlin talk about 2025 and their aspirations for 2026. May Jim bless us all!

Caitlin and Ty reunite in the former’s loft for a snowy download on the topic of gratitude. With Thanksgiving on the horizon, the pair contemplates the power of appreciation. It’s giving… season

Ty and Caitlin are back together again in the attic where it all started. They talk about portals, aqueous and not, and share their musings on Addison Rae’s eponymous album of the summer. Girl talk.

Ty, Caitlin, and returning guest Riley spend a Sunday regaling their views of the new Nosferatu in three glorious parts. Don’t let it in!

Ty and Caitlin ring in the new year in Caitlin’s lovely, lavish loft by reflecting on the topography of 2024 and setting some intentions for the year ahead. Gwen Stefani guest stars in the conversation as an archetype of worldly indulgence and aesthetic liberation. Are you feeling yummy head to toe?

Ty and Caitlin sit down at their local Chili’s to queen out over the current political situation and the film “V for Vendetta” while they’re still legally able to. We got cut off by Caitlin’s birth control alarm and we’re struggling with the new constraints of our recording/editing/upload app so it’s in two parts. Forgive.

Ty and Caitlin harness the power of video and the changing technology to bring you discussion about wealth using the films A Little Princess and Blue Jasmine. Tears flow and goosbumps are had. If one thing is sure, Salt Lake City mall kiosk workers are witches of the highest order. Continuing support for Gaza: https://www.anera.org/where-we-work/palestine/gaza/ https://www.pcrf.net/

Ty and Caitlin talk about “little lives,” living an authentic life, and the idea of a McLife, partly through the lens of the film “American Beauty.” Do you like your stupid little life? Resources for Palestine: https://www.anera.org/where-we-work/palestine/gaza/ https://wck.org/search/tag/gaza

Ty and Caitlin discuss the film “Whale Rider” through themes of ancestry, heritage, colonialism, tradition, and progress. How do we go forward with what we internalize about our individual and collective histories?

Ty and Caitlin reflect on their year through the lens of a Tik Tok character created by Andi Marie Tillman, some Jung, Robert A. Johnson, and the idea of a “stone of remembrance.” Happy sholstice, merry rockmas, and a stony new year to you, listener. Links for content and continued support to Palestine below.

Ty and Caitlin discuss pleasure, partly using Audre Lorde’s essay “The Uses of the Erotic, and partly employing charcuterie. How can we feel sustainably good in our modern world while also acknowledging the bad? Answer, for Ty, apparently, is, resoundingly: Rose Toy.

Ty and Caitlin talk to another longtime friend Erin about Darren Aronofsky’s “The Fountain.” We cover thoughts on the film, death in general, and current events just in time for Halloween, the beginning of the death of the year.

Ty and Caitlin gussy up for a conversation on fashion and style. How does one locate their own style? Is there authenticity in superficiality? One thing remains certain: you better put your GallianUSSY into it!

Ty and Caitlin discuss Shelley Read’s debut novel, “Go As A River.” Happy peach season! Sorry for the glitches!

Ty and Caitlin get together for a more casual and loose conversation. The through-line ends up being the idea of madness: from experiences in place and life to the archetype of the crazy king.

Ty and Caitlin use the Y2K rom-com classic “Serendipity” to discuss synchronicities and the twists and turns of life. Ty cringed. Caitlin cried, per usual. We’re out here living the questions. Are you?
