Welcome back, fellow travelers!

Season 3 of A Thousand Serious Moves is starting out with a bang (I guess we know how it’ll end- cue whimper)!

You’re in for a very special secret treat on today’s episode. It’s so secret, all I can tell you is I can’t tell you. It’s such a fucking secret. Better to start listening now!

S03 E01 - Bob Morrissey

Welcome back to A Thousand Serious Moves!

Season 3 starts with some lost archives (aka: I couldn’t find the files), so you’re in for a treat with a few more interviews from Houston comics. Today’s episode is featuring Bob Morrissey, a Houston comic who runs the bi-weekly comedy show Gay Shame Parade at The Secret Group. Bob and I discuss dreams, prayers, the military and so much more!

Season 3 is going to be quite a paranormal treat for you. I will be exploring ideas of other dimensions, the Gnostic texts, magic, remote viewing and so much more! Make sure you subscribe, leave a review & tell your friends.

S02 E06 - Katie McGee

Sutnam, fellow beings of consciousness!

Hi! Hello! Welcome back to A Thousand Serious Moves with Amanda Holstien!

On this episode, I give a brief reflection on my new journey of sobriety *cries inside*. I  talk about how I came to this realization and a few things I’ve learned already, like: how much I like alcohol. I also give a brief reflection on the size of the Bachelors’ dicks. Additionally, I sit down and have a conversation with Houston comic (soon to be NYC comic), Katie McGee. 

Katie and I talk about being raised in a Christian home and the baggage we have learned/are learning to unpack because of it. We talk about the process of learning to have a relationship with God that isn’t attached to dogma we had previously learned. We also talk about 69’ing.
