A weekly podcast exploring whatever seems interesting at the time. I can't guarantee greatness, but it'll at least be Heif Decent.

The Mandela Effect: Memory Glitches or Alternate Realities?
I explore the Mandela Effect phenomenon where large groups of people share the same false memories, discussing famous examples and possible explanations for these collective memory glitches.
• The Mandela Effect named after people incorrectly remembering Nelson Mandela died in prison in the 1980s
• Common examples include the Berenstein/Berenstain Bears spelling controversy
• The nonexistent cornucopia in the Fruit of the Loom logo that many remember
• Widespread memory of Sinbad starring in a genie movie called "Shazam" that never existed
• Ed McMahon never delivered Publisher's Clearing House checks despite collective memories
• Other examples include "Looney Tunes" vs "Looney Toons" spelling and misremembered movie quotes
• The Monopoly man never had a monocle despite many visualizing him with one
• Modern Bliss playing at Ardmore Music Hall this Saturday
• I'll be performing at Barnaby's Havertown deck this Sunday from 3-6pm
