Dr. Disappointment

Hi guys, Having watched episode 7 An Almost Religious Awe early this morning in the UK, after seeing Angela discover the elephant, it now feels like I am being beaten over the head by the Trieu company logo. Like those optical illusion drawings of the young woman/old woman – before...

Memory Of An Elephant

Hey guys, Just saw the latest and greatest, but I thought that seeing an Elephant was so significant earlier in the season, not to get too deep into theory or meaning like some listeners (hats off to the chic that sounds like a sociology professor). But I thought this was...

Hi all, loving the podcast, thanks for all the insight! Having a live-in god explains how Angela survived the White Night. In her flashback we see her get shot in the belly by the second Kalvaryman. He’s standing over her and it doesn’t look good, then fade to black, curtains....
