from Awesomely Off-Topic: Books, Brands, Business and Everything Else We’re Not Supposed to Say Out Loud · host Taz Thornton and Asha Clearwater
Everybody knows about Friday the 13th.Tuesday the 13th has a much longer, stranger history.This episode landed on that date by accident. We’ll let you decide what you make of that.We start with triskaidekaphobia and The Thirteen Club – people who deliberately sat thirteen at the table to provoke the reaction it caused. Not because they believed anything bad would happen, but because everyone else did.From there, the conversation moves into business, pressure, money, launches, and the quiet behaviours people slip into when certainty drops away. Numbers avoided. Habits repeated. Decisions nudged by things that don’t quite make sense on paper.It’s a conversation about control, discomfort, and pattern-seeking minds doing what they do best when something matters.No conclusions. No reassurance.Just an honest look at how humans behave when they don’t feel in control.Something you’d love us to know? Send us a message - we’d love to hear from you. Support the show✨ Unfiltered.
