The Trojan Horse

from What Was That? Hosted by Jessica Goodfellow

A darkly funny, unsettling meditation on avoidance, indecision, and truth-withheld. Tracing how unclear endings, symbolic attachments, and inherited identity fractures shape the way we belong, love, and speak.Today I venture into the uncomfortable tale of how I ended up with a tattoo on my arm that now represents a friendship breakup. After trying three times to record this episode, I arrived at a profound conclusion and a very satisfying decision. In true number 8 fashion, this episode touches on infinity and feels like a trippy springboard for the next chunk of the season. It might be my favourite episode so far. This is a public episode.
