Episode 11 of Dial Tone starts with a conversation about the growing tensions between the United States, Israel, and Iran and quickly turns into one of our most unpredictable episodes yet.

We talk about living in Jacksonville near a major Marine Corps base and how military culture shapes the local economy, from deployments to tattoo shops to the constant flow of service members through town. That leads into a wild story about Taco almost joining the military, getting kicked out of the ASVAB testing room, and somehow learning the months of the year through pushups.

From there the conversation goes everywhere. We get into strange internet rabbit holes, the weird corners of human curiosity, and how the brain processes sensation and experience. That opens up a deeper discussion about memory, consciousness, psychedelics like DMT, and how the human mind might actually work.

Things take a more reflective turn when we talk about aging, grandparents, and what it means to slowly lose memory through dementia or Alzheimer’s. We share personal stories about family, wisdom passed down through generations, and why preserving those memories matters more the older we get.

As always, the episode mixes ridiculous humor with real conversations about life, memory, culture, and the strange things that make us human.
