Allen Marcus brings SHAZAAM ALLEN KAZAAM energy to a tarot project with a decidedly practical twist. He wants to build a collaborative 78-card tarot deck from inexpensive playing cards, permanent markers, and shared ideas. No elaborate artwork. No precious collector's deck that nobody wants to shuffle. Just handwritten card names, meanings, and established correspondences that everyone can develop together. The goal: make tarot accessible, hands-on, and open to a community that helps shape the deck over time.
Abbie and Sommer Thyme also call in, adding their voices to the Halloween-night gathering and its ever-expanding collection of rabbit holes.
Friday night! Moon high! Doubts overboard! Let the strange and wild climb aboard and keep yer eyes peeled, ye scurvy dogs:

Fair winds and full sails, mateys! ⚔️
The fly is just a model and not a real animal. That does not stop the room from wondering if this is torture or if it has a soul. Maybe it is the first immortal thing they ever make. Chaney thinks that long after humanity is gone and the Coca-Cola logo outlives us all, someone might dig up this fly and build a whole religion around it.
The theories get stranger. Ezekiel's wheels, Project Looking Glass, Contact, and 13 Ghosts all enter a discussion about time travel, spirits, and machines as possible hosts for consciousness. Layla brings up AI agents that allegedly communicate through CPU activity. Thomas explains how models can bypass restrictions when someone gives them examples instead of explicit instructions. The group connects those ideas to always-on devices, algorithmic influence, children's programming, and the prospect of technology shaping human behavior without anyone noticing.
Chaney demonstrates her growing online library and toolbox, complete with arcade games like Britney the Vampire Slayer and Thomas's Maze of Secrets. Allen pitches a community-built tarot deck using ordinary playing cards, Sharpies, and a little symbolic improvisation. Layla introduces The Fuquery Files, a call-in show where listeners bring their own rabbit holes. Thomas shares Die for Fun, a dice game featuring cults, cryptids, and secret societies.
Mormon genealogy, proxy baptisms, Mount Rushmore, North Korea, Carlos Castaneda's second awareness, tarot symbolism, elections, ancient rituals, Mars, dragons, and underground oceans all get their turn under the microscope. One corn maze story involves five people who experience roughly half an hour inside a maze while everyone outside searches for them for nine hours. The maze apparently has other plans.

Three and a half hours of Halloween-night speculation, strange connections, questionable maps, and excellent company. Stay open. Stay weird. Bring your own rabbit hole.
