Description

A deep dive into nostalgia, liminality, and the paranormal.

Are we interested in the paranormal because we feel nostalgic? Could that be why so much paranormal investigation gear is inspired by 1980s and 1990s tech?

Highlights include:

  • Could a state of feeling deep nostalgia help with spirit communication?
  • Radio Shack memories
  • Internet aesthetics
  • Attempts to find meaning in a chaotic world

Check out the shownotes for sources and a written version of the episode.
