Summary
FYHOD returns for Season 2, with our first investigation into the realm of Lynchian anime! Hosts Shy Fox and Marcy O'Daniels are joined by old-school anime aficionados Allen Ortega and Conrad Zimmerman to take a weird, wired dive into the sullenly sinister cyber-scapes of 1998's Serial Experiments Lain . This bizarrely prescient cult-classic may be nearly 30 years old, but feels more relevant than ever in our "Present Day, Present Time"! What would it be like if you always existed online, and could never log off? What would happen if infinite truths had to coexist in the collective consciousness at the same time, in a miasma of misinformation? COULD YOU EVEN IMAGINE?!
