A time-travel episode with special guest Julia Holter. Jenny moves to the Middle Ages and reports from the scene, Yelena draws contemporary parallels, and Julia provides the allegorical counterpoints.

Discussed: emoji as modern iconography, area 51 Facebook group meet up vs peasant riots, plague era graffiti, tawdry tales from Decameron, YouTube rituals, medieval dinner parties, jester politics and again Marianne Williamson. Bonus: Julia leads us in a purifying ritual and we sing a wistful song. We bequeath this episode to you.
