Shelby and Aesop are back on the couch with Episode 23 (NOT 24), a philosophical exploration of all things political, gastrointestinal, musical, nautical, nonsensical, and psychedelic. Is it worth your time? There's only one way to find out...

"Sextons of the churchyard

Have seen unblessed things;

Ground no longer hallowed

Has sprouted new graves.

Descendants of clan

That unsurped maternity

hear whispers in their blood;

This summons of the Fathers.

Adherence to the principle

Of 'man by woman born'...

Anachronistic ritual

Soon to be obsolete.

'Forgive me Father

For I know not what I do;

My grave beckons

As irresistable as drawing breath.'"
