In rabbitHOLE's eighth episode, the BIT CREW heads down some interesting holes, including:

• Charlie Chaplin
• Fabric Power Rankings
• Mascot Abuse
• The Great Muppet Caper

Luke starts us off with a twisty tale beginning with the 1000 albums you must listen to before you die (Anyone else a fan of Ogden Nuts Gone Flake? What about Stanley Unwin? Nope? Maybe?) a visit to the GOON SHOW, and then some forgotten fact about the Little Tramp. We also learned that Jason may or may not have a fabric fetish. Multiple cast members suffered physical abuse when wearing mascot costumes from mean kids. Flannery attempts to get ANIMAL (the Muppet) the recognition he deserves, same for Dr. Teeth and the Mayhem and Brent.

It's a wild ride - we're glad you're on it with us.

APOLOGIES: Sweeden (once again), non-angry poets, Burlap to Cashmere (a real band), Banana Republic (sponsor us?), the colors purple and bone, Hanes, cotton, suede, WhiteCastle, Poutine, Canada, beat poets, cheese sandwiches, and whomever should have been on this list but was inadvertently omitted.

As always, rabbitHOLE is unscripted and inspired by the CREW's real-life rabbit hole adventures.

In rabbitHOLE's seventh episode, the BIT CREW heads down some interesting holes, including:

• Freddie Mercury + Queen
• Skinny Jeans
• Dancing Raisins Recitals

Katya explains how she grew up in a pop culture void and only recently educated herself on the band Queen and its frontman. The troupe has a lively discussion on who should and should NOT wear skinny jeans. (I was today years old when I learned that women's pockets are smaller than men's pockets.) Amber relives a minor childhood trauma of performing in a dance recital at a county fair dressed as a raisin - except the homemade costumes didn't really look like raisins - and being stuck at the top of the Ferris wheel.

So funny!

APOLOGIES: Madonna, Michael Jackson, NASA, History Teachers, Queen Elizabeth II, the California Dancing Raisins, Bank Robbers, Carnies, Carberators (aka corroborators), Buckingham Palace, the poop emoji, and anyone with extremely long testicles.

Sorry, not sorry: Skinny Jeans and Serial Killers

This is a BONUS Spooky Season episode of rabbitHOLE.

It's only fitting to start with a cast member's haunting story*. Of course, in proper rabbitHOLE form, the BIT CREW A-Zs it to dead animal furniture.

In episode six, you'll hear about hauntings, signs from beyond the grave, random appearances in rap videos, ironic award show categories, daytime dance clubs, over-caffeinated dates, New Ikea, talking furniture, and approval seeking.

TLDR Version: Always confirm muffin ingredients. IYKYK

As always, rabbitHOLE is unscripted and inspired by the CREW's real-life rabbit hole adventures.

BONUS NOTE!
About Aleister Crowley - by Sabrina Kim Banes

Aleister Crowley was an English occultist, ceremonial magician, writer, and mountaineer who lived from 1875 to 1947. He led the international magical society Ordo Templi Orientis, and his grasp of occult knowledge was second to none. He created his own religion, Thelema, whose teachings are contained in The Book Of the Law — and yes, the Gnostic Mass really does involve consuming trace amounts of bodily fluids.

Crowley's Tarot deck, the Thoth deck, which he co-created with Lady Frieda Harris, is known to this day as one of the most powerful and beautiful in existence.

Nowadays, people remember Crowley as a sort of early 20th-century edgelord who wrote inflammatory poetry and encouraged people to do drugs and have lots of sex. Some say he drove all his partners mad. But his greatest esoteric teaching, "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law," continues to endure within occult circles.

If you want to read more about him you should check out Perdurabo: The Life of Aleister Crowley by Richard Kaczynski. Not a reader? You can learn a little about some of the wild hijinks of the OTO's Agape Lodge (and the life of Jack Parsons) from the television series Strange Angel.

All errors included here are the sole responsibility of Sabrina Kim Banes! Thanks for reading, and happy spooky season!
