For our 40th (!) episode, Jojo is finally back in the studio with Stella. After some good old fashioned travel-themed goofing, we are joined by the author of Grate Scapes, a psychogeographic photobook of sewer grates and their mysteries.

Stella's in the studio and Jojo calls in to talk travel turkey. Also featured are some field recordings from San Francisco's Chinatown and New England's trains on guest etiquette and festival revelry.

Solo in the studio again, Stella muses on what a Hell Camino might look like after listening to a report from Jojo about Moby Dick and the thumping of life. Guests Sam & Sara join from Joshua Tree to talk desert landscapes and powerspots.

It's Stella solo in the studio but never gear, Jojo calls in with an East Coast report. Then Stella dives into her long-standing loves of the moody lives of saints, before turning to Henry Miller's reading-on-the-toilet musings.

Stella is in the studio, mixing up a series of audio recordings the OSGH made while walking the Dutch section of the Camino. It is a wild ride.

We are back from yet another trek on the Jakobweg, the Dutch segment of the Camino de Santiago. However, we never get around to talking about it because of the rip-roaring time we were having in the studio with our special guests, Mac & Thoth. We discuss renaissance image magic, hearing loss, the spectacle, the philosophies of boredom, Albrecht Dürer's Melancholia & Knight, the meaning of dreams, and memory & memoirs.

Just Sarah joins us again this week to provide a rundown on her latest travels. Talk turns to what art should do (make us horny; provide fun).

We finally get into what the title of this show means, and follow the lines of association until we arrive at something unexpected, & marvelous. We then dive into a few Camino books, celebrating brilliance & razzing the duds.

Stella is back, and the universe rejoices. We discuss Tolkien, Rush, and go deep into elaborating the occult art of automatic writing.

I have two guests this week, starting off strong with a member of the Order calling in to walk us through some lost psychedelic lore based in Michigan and reflections on being a pilgrimage industry hustler. We had the cut the conversation short, as Dr. Yoni paid a visit to the studio. We discussed the art of seeing, without letting the main get in the way.

With Stella out of town, Jojo teamed-up with a friend of the show, Mac, to discuss on djinn, tutelary spirits, & dreams.

A technological issue prevented the first 45 minutes of the show from being recorded. Stella leads a deep-dive into the heart of Arthur Kingsley Porter's research on the holy road, and at the end of the tunnel we found a new means of conceptualizing our research on pilgrimage, "Camino Modernism." The second half of the program is given over to musings on OSGH iconography.

With Stella out of town, jojo hosts a special episode devoted to discussing the master travel writer, Bruce Chatwin. I follow the lead of my special guest Will, a life long Chatwinnian, as we make our way into "In Patagonia," amongst the greatest travel books of the modern era.

Stella & JoJo attempt to figure out how to respond to the question, "how was your pilgrimage?" Turns out, we just have to trip the light fantastic and eff the ineffable.

Stella is in the studio by her lonesome this week, rapping about hostels, their vibes and her history staying in them across the world. Great tunes!

Much to our delight, our guest Kunda shares her deep knowledge of Earth Mysteries, lay-lines (or "energy lines"), powerspots, and planetary kundalini networks. We also discuss travelin the world, learning everything all over again, and the Sedona airport vortex.

We have returned from the Camino & are itching to unpack our experiences with the other members of Order of St. George's Horse. We are joined in the studio by Roxy, a master pilgrim & scholar of the world's holy roads.

Stella and Jojo were walking the Holy Road this week, and in their stead they programmed some Camino music. Enjoy!

Miles Davis- Sketches of Spain [entire album]
Oliver Schroer - Camino [entire album]
John Williams - "Suite Espanola op. 47, No. 5: Astyurias"
John Williams - "Seville"

We are one week out from our yearly pilgrimage along the Camino de Santiago, and to mark the occasion, Stella & Jojo crack jokes, listen to tunes, and reflect on their love of this pilgrimage broadcast program.

Melvin Bliss - "Synthetic Substitution"
Leopards - "Psychedelic Boy"
Vincent Price - "Wine is Elegance"
Toots & the Maytals - "Broadway Jungle"
Donny Hathaway - "Come Little Children"
The Raincoats - "Honey Mad Woman"
Vampire Weekend - "Campus"
Mort Garson - "Killing of the Witch"

Diving deeper into the Protestant literature of pilgrimage, Stealla and Jojo air their discontentment concerning the "pathological individualism" of modern sacred travel. Fear not: things are not as heavy as this description make them out to be! The show reaches even further heights of merriment when our old friend & OSGH member Addison phones-in to discuss the art of travel. We chat about times past (Myrtle Beach vacations!), expectations about the Camino, and how to improvise a new pair of pants while on the road.
