Is it irony, bad timing, or proof that there is a good reason to believe in superstition when your web hosting company suffers a 4-day outage right as you’re about to upload your podcast? This show covers superstitions. Why do some people believe the number 13 is unlucky while others consider it lucky? Why do so many people have rituals around things like flying? Why are supersitions so prevalent in sports? Some of the greatest athletes of all-time were superstitious including Michael Jordan and Wade Boggs.

On this episode I talk about change. Both in culture and in the way we interact. I talk about the change in the long-running sci-fi series Doctor Who that has its main character changing from a man to a woman. I talk about cultural appropriations any why they’re a load of crap. I talk about the owner of Papa John’s using the N-Word and why people are focusing on him daring to use the word rather than talk about the context of the conversation. I get a bit riled up on this show, if you’re a snowflake you might want to pass on this one. If you can handle it, please come along for the ride with me and bring a friend!
