In this episode, Tiffani and Kenjus chop it up among themselves for their Season 1 recap. They explore the balance of calm amid chaos in their attempts to achieve homeostasis during the apocalypse. They discuss rites of passage, initiation, and ceremony as essential components of this balance.
Tiffani and Kenjus also discuss the art of letting go of control. A vignette about a puppet show gone awry shows that the best moments often happen when we stop trying to control everything. The hosts use this grounding as a springboard to explore the stigma surrounding cults, challenging the negative connotations and questioning when a tight-knit group becomes something society fears. They attempt to identify the culture within cults.
The episode wraps up with a prayer for surrender. Tiffani and Kenjus encourage listeners to embrace change and find the courage to let parts of themselves die, making room for the afterlife, or the afterbirth, of the apocalypse.
Note: This episode explores controversial topics like cults and mass suicide. Tiffani and Kenjus do not intend to make light of or advocate for these tragic realities.
