About this episode
Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week’s episode we direct our usual mode of esoteric inquiry toward the popular memetic youth-culture phenomena which has produced the viral slogan “67,” “Mangos,” and “Mustard,” often summarized as little more than nonsense phrases intended to signal irony, ambiguity or in-group identity; popularly referred to simply as “Brain Rot.” What we discovered was kind of profound, strangely consistent and totally unexpected; leaving us to ponder the relationship between the Buddha, medieval Christian kabbalists and the rantings of Philip K. Dick in his Exegesis. In the free side of the show we discuss what “Brain Rot” is, how it infected mainstream culture through hip-hop, what it has to do with the Saturn and whether or not our kids are secretly wizards doing esoteric numerology by innate ability by accident. In the extended side of the show we uncover the connection to Buddhism, the Garden of Eden and… testicles? Thank you and enjoy the show! ----> Hear the full show here: www.patreon.com/TheWholeRabbit
