    23 — Jane Doe and Jem

    Darkness and light! Let’s discuss the magical ladies of the 2016 psychological horror film “The Autopsy of Jane Doe” and the 1985 cartoon (and 2015 comic book) “Jem and the Holograms.” Also: we recorded this in July 2019 so some of it feels quaint and dated in retrospect, the importance of not interrupting rituals, collective unconscious fear, magic magnets, deep fakes, and so much more!

    Audio samples:

    Danny Bensi & Saunder Jurriaans — “Lights Out”
    “Clue”
    Jem and the Holograms — “Truly Outrageous”
    “G.I. Joe”
