0:00.0	Hello, and welcome to CATHYGANCE WAS LIVE. I'm Sy Kelly, your host, and it's Thursday. It's
0:20.0	two hours of open forum, Jimmy Aiken, first hour, second hour, Mark Bromley, so get ready.
0:25.3	We're going to have a lot of fun. 888-318-7884 is the number triple eight. 318-7884, if you have
0:33.6	a question about the Catholic faith, or especially this first hour about anything else, you are
0:39.0	welcome to call 888-318-7884. Jimmy Aiken is Senior Apologist here at CATHYGANCE. There's
0:45.9	the author of a whole bunch of things. And the proprietor of Jimmy Aiken's mysterious
0:51.2	world. Hello, Jimmy Aiken. Hello, Sy Kelly. Thank you for being here. Oh, my pleasure. And what's
0:59.9	dropping tomorrow on Jimmy Aiken's mysterious world? Well, last two weeks, we did a two-part
1:06.5	look at dousing, which contained the surprising revelation that the Catholic Church is actually

1:43.6	tomorrow, on Friday, we have a Patrons Questions episode. So we're going to be answering Patrons'

1:56.2	you have to attend? Does quantum mechanics imply the existence of God, planetary defense systems?
2:02.4	The Max Headroom broadcast intrusion, Belgian UFOs, space time in heaven, demoniacs in the
2:08.8	gospels, and the souls of early hominins? That is fun. Any show where you get Max Headroom and
2:17.4	space time in heaven, in one show. Not to mention all that other stuff, that's pretty good.
2:23.8	That's a classic Jimmy, what's the Max Headroom thing? Or do you not want to tell me? Do I go?
2:28.8	No, no, no. It's a, it was an event that occurred, I want to say back in the 1980s, where there was
2:36.3	an episode of Dr. Who being broadcast in Chicago, and someone wearing a Max Headroom mask broke in
