TW: This episode includes conversations about sexual assuslt, self-harm, and substance abuse. When I first heard about Micah's story online a few years back, I knew I wanted to have him on the show.

I'm so happy we got Micah on to share his story of surviving, healing, and hope.

More than a decade ago I used to watch Doreen Virtue's weekly tarot forecast and eagerly wait to see if her predictions came true. Like so many other folks who were looking to modern new age spirituality to answer questions and help create a life full of purpose. She offered tarot-esque decks that had themes like mermaids and angels and said anyone could learn how to read and hear the voices. It was all so fluffy and fun. But then Doreen seemingly heard the voice of God, became a born-again Christian, and denounced all her previous work. She now spends her time telling her followers how to be good Christians and how to spot the devil in modern new-age culture.

You know, I really thought watching the Exorcist again through the lens of Superficial Spirit would evoke some strong ideas or emotions.

It's time we take a deeper look at the people, projects, and moments in pop culture that have used spirituality, religion, or the occult as a vehicle for creativity. And who better to start with than Madonna and her song “Like A Prayer”? What kind of symbolism did this song use? What were her motives? And what kind of effect did it have on her fans? We also chat about her connection to Kabala and how it seemed to inspire a wave of celebrity support in the early 2000s. Remember that little red string?

Ok so Kim Petras released a new song called If Jesus Was A Rockstar and I thought it was a nice example of spirituality/religion making a cameo in a pop song and wondered if it could provide an opportunity for Kim's fans to consider or re-conceptualize Jesus/religion/spirituality.

Ok, so I was accused of hating all wealthy people this week when I shared my opinions about the way personal boundaries manifest in reality tv. I think there is a certain level of personal accountability when you knowingly open your personal life up to be consumed by entertainment. Other topics discussed* Fetishizing straight guys (again!)* Kathy Hilton VS Lisa Rinna* All Billionaires Are B******s* Vancouver's recent election* Homelessness, the system of oppression, and the cycle of poverty.The Superficial Spirit is a podcast that explores how pop culture affects our spiritual experiences and seeks to uncover unconventional ways people experience the divine…Every episode explores a different area of spirituality including tarot, crystals, psychics, manifesting, plant medicine and modern new-age trends. In the podcast, we ask questions like is modern spirituality a cult? Is Ayahuasca really that profound? Are psychics and tarot even real? What about fame, money, sex and social media? How do they affect our spirituality? Can the superficial really be profound? Ultimately, we believe in one thing: spirituality is real but the tools we use to define it may not be magical at all.The Superficial Spirit is hosted by Peter Breeze, a former club kid and underground pop star who found success in queer clubs across Canada and America. He believes that his time as a fame-obsessed, hard-partying club-kid was a conduit for his spirituality and is passionate to connect with people who've also had unconventional or scandalous experiences exploring their own spirituality.
