Show Notes Episode 308: Never Mind, I Didn’t See Your Sign
Part 1 of “Why Do You Believe This Crap?”
This week Host Dave Bledsoe’s horoscope warns him that failure to pay outstanding bar tabs will lead to certain distress and emotional pain. (Like we needed an astrologer for THAT prediction) On the show this week we kicked off a series called “Why Do You Believe This Crap?” with Astrology. (And just when we started to get a few listeners too!)
Along the way we learn that Dave once met a woman who hates him for leaving instead of hanging around. Then we dive right into the history of the Zodiac and Astrology, from its humble beginnings telling Babylonian Kings when to doink all the way through apps on our phones telling YOU when to doink. (The Stars say Thursday!) We find how newspaper horoscopes became a thing (The Royal Family) and why the Boomers loved shitty Age of Aquarius song. (Drugs) Then we learn why Millennials are all into astrology even if they pretend they don’t really believe in it. (Except they kinda do)
Our Sponsor this week is Edna Blavitz Psychic Reader, learn the mysteries of the universe with Edna Blavitz, Psychic Reader. We open the show with Dara O’Brianin who makes a point about lumping people together and close with Bill Engvall who did not see your sign.
