    Astrology
    Jan 10 2025

    Astrology is one of the most mainstream topics Morgan + Norm have dabbled in to date and as such comes with some biases and misconceptions. Morgan leads Norm into the ancient world, a jaunt through the renaissance and the theosophical influence that led to sun sign horoscopes in newspapers. A beginner friendly walk through the stars for anyone who (like Norm) has ever felt confused or intimidated.

  • The Teachings of Don Juan

    The Teachings of Don Juan
    Dec 27 2024

    The Teachings of Don Juan by Carlos Castenada is considered a classic from the 1960s. Figures covered in Season 1 almost certainly read it. Norm has some bones to pick to pick with this granddaddy of New Age literature while Morgan lays out how this book cemented in the public imagination what spiritual knowledge and transformation was supposed to look like... If you ever felt disappointed that you couldn't disappear with a strange man in the desert and emerge with spiritual enlightenment, this discussion is for you!
