Intro

I have all episodes on my mobile device, Egodeath playlist. I’m learning how to find episodes – this page will help that.

I thought of Egodeath Show: 2021/02/04:

I thought of Egodeath Mystery Show: 2021/02/04:

Egodeath ShowEgodeath Mystery Show (2021-02-04b) Quiet Mystery Test: “Egodeath Show 2021-02-04b.mp3” 3:05:51 (Episode 12)

My recent context for that history research was to find when I abandoned the Live Broadcast format. On 2024/12/24, I wrote about that at:
https://egodeaththeory.wordpress.com/2021/02/28/episode-template-for-egodeath-mystery-show/ – section “Comments about this page & approach 4 years later”

I love my Feb 7 2021 episode that my mobile player defaulted to and kept wanting to play, where near the start, I read — Plastic Cloud episode/ album — Rolfe & Rolfe 1925 book passage “A Curious Myth”.

Nov. 2020 was article compelling evidence & criteria of proof and for identifying mushroom imagery in Christian art, which spawned Great Canterbury Psalter discoveries starting with leg-hanging mushroom tree.

I had 1-2 screenshots of Great Canterbury Psalter back in my Brown-cited 2006 gallery supporting my Wasson article.

The other day I found the audio project for that Feb 7 2021 Plastic Cloud / A Curious Myth episode, and I found the mp3 file (not just imprisoned on mobile device), so I can repro it – the initial version of mp3 flawed at end, had repeat passage; 2nd version replaced it, shorter w/ dup removed.

Motivation for this page

Need a place I can find and record this history.

Recently I researched history of Egodeath Mystery Show to find when I abandoned the “Live Broadcast” format and switched to the FAR more relaxed and unstressful “Post-Assembled Impromptu recordings” format. But now I lost track of where I wrote that date, probably Idea development page 21 or 22.

I keep re-researching dates and episodes – this page locks that down as the official spot to record history.

I’m often searching for episodes of Egodeath Mystery Show, very confusing: some are in idea development pages, later are dedicated pages, and the early history is choppy as the show name or concept of show faded-in around late Jan 2024.

Another huge change, noted in my recent review, was: that Feb 7 2021 episode was “live broadcast” format: a very exciting and fake format, requiring lots of preplanning and practice and discarding flubbed first 4-5 attempts. Too exciting, too Live.

Will I Do another Live Broadcast Episode?

Requires planning, timing, practice, throwing away 4-5 first takes. I never do or much need Vocalization Warmup segment anymore, so THAT structure is unneeded… I don’t even remember the sequence of Segments.

Segments for Live Broadcast format

omg at start of episode I listed what I’d be talking about. High prep/ high pressure.

  • The “Intro” Segment
    • Recording Header
    • Playlist
    • The “Show Format” Segment
  • The “Voice & Mic Technique” Segment
  • The “Warmup Reading” Segment
  • The “Egodeath Theory” Segment
    • Esoteric Agenda
  • The “Not a Music Show” Segment
  • The “Outro” Segment

It takes so much prep! No way to guarantee content quality, Live, “talk about X”. That’s a reason to abandon it. The “gold clip” hunt came from that Live Broadcast format. I’d have to try to use that format, to comment further on its pros & cons.
eg, from https://egodeaththeory.wordpress.com/2021/02/03/idea-development-page-11/#2021-02-18b-Egodeath-Mystery-Show

Episodes that have a dedicated webpage

apparently the first were:

see if 97 is in an Idea Development page. find: “Egodeath Mystery Show episode 97” – confirmed:
https://egodeaththeory.wordpress.com/2022/03/09/idea-development-page-13/#Ep97-Umbrella-to-Mushroom

Idea development page 13 ranges from Ep 73 to Ep 188 – a lot! 189-73= 116 episodes listed in a single Idea development page?! 264 episodes (+ some pre-episodes); 116/264 = 44% of the 264 episodes are in a single Idea development page. Many of these – higher numbers – also have dedicated webpage. Confirmed page 13 is the longest, 183 sheets.

99 has both a dedicated page and a section in an Idea development page:

Gold Clips Project

Find “gold clip” at this site. For a period, I was marking Gold Clips and planning to assemble them into a Gold Clips episode.

Some episodes are cursed, some are charmed / blessed, like Lion’s Paw recently: after a few episodes that were hard to record, hard to produce, and flawed result eg I was getting muted, then I recorded a single recording 4 hours long, single pass, effortless, easy to produce, good sounding, piece of cake, content good.

“Post-Assembled Impromptu” format episodes

It looks like the transition was after Ep 70.5 – after that I did a lot of episodes that were special, like hours of reading aloud eg. I more “forgot” about the “Live Broadcast” format, due to its sheer unwieldiness, rather than consciously deciding “I’m officially negatively assessing that format and not going to use it anymore.”

hearkens back to the first few 1-off short topical recordings uploaded raw w/o any Show / Episode framing.

“Live Broadcast” format episodes

Ep __ through Ep __

oh yeah, THIS question is what drove my recent research about history of Egodeath Mystery Show — “WHEN DID I ABANDON THE LIVE BROADCAST FORMAT?” ANS: __ apparently final one with “intro” segment is 70.5: Egodeath Mystery Show episode 70 1/2 – Wisdom Folly – recorded April 1, 2021, uploaded June 11, 2022.

Egodeath Mystery Show, Episodes 12-264 (2021/02/04-2024/12/28)

latest episode of Egodeath Mystery Show:

Egodeath Mystery Show Ep264: Failed Amanita Hypothesis (July 16, 2023); recorded July 16, 2023produced Dec. 28, 2024;
url: https://egodeaththeory.wordpress.com/2024/12/29/egodeath-mystery-show-ep264/

The first episode called Egodeath Mystery Show is numbered as ep 12, continuing the numbering from the Egodeath Show episode 11.

Egodeath Warmup Show (2021/01/31-)

oldest/first:

What the concept was for Warmup Show: I needed and wanted the vocal practice, but separated and removed from real episodes. These days, 2024, I’d just record a recording but be sure NOT to mix real content with throwaway vocal practice. Stop recording, to switch modes.

Egodeath Show, Episodes 1-11 (2021/01/28-2021/02/04)

todo: Recount history circumstances of when I thought of a show (“the egodeath show”) as opposed to uploading 1-off recordings. The moment I started recording episodes of “the Egodeath Show”, I thought of recasting as “the Egodeath Mystery Show”.

The transitional episode, can be considered both the final episode of The Egodeath Show and the first episode of Egodeath Mystery Show:

Recording with Header (2021/01/28)

Jan/Feb 2021

Newest/final:

Oldest/first:

On my mobile device: Music app: Playlists > Egodeath > swipe down to show Search box > “old secret”. song name: “Old Secret Entheogen Paradigm”.

The content is solid, but I can hear my lisping error, that flared up in early Feb 2021 (to my confusion & shock). “center of the field” sometimes “shenter of the field”. Overuse of “sh” instead of ‘s’ is an extremely common tic/ “virus”/ accent, eg:
“Ishrael” instead of “Israel”;
“shtrength” instead of “strength” – was my lisp related to that bad, popular accent?
“Shiimultaneously,”

Yet my voice tone is quite good in “Old Secret” episode – there’s much good. But, the good aspects made me drop my guard at many points, and it took all of 2021 to train and debug my voice.

The fact that I can plainly hear my often lisp/slur (on half of s’s; the other 50% are fine), is a huge good sign that I don’t produce it anymore. I had to learn to hear mis-vocalizations, during 2021.

Mostly-nervous throat clearing. A lot; repeated. Backing away from mic would help. Not 4″! too close; hard to work with; requires excess cleanup.

At 3:45, I list the fallacies.

Too-close miking, is difficult to work with, and amplifies mouth noises.

Miking: Used Right mic of TASCAM DR-05 stereo field recorder. A couple months later, I hypoth’d that my lisping was partly caused by compensating for this ultra-bright mic.

Not much of a header; gave miking info, planned content = “11 entheogen diminishment fallacies.”

Voice Recording (2021-01-20):

Voice Effect Art Recordings 2016

Check the Egodeath Yahoo Group/ Max Freakout Archive https://egodeathyahoogroup.wordpress.com/

After my 2007 recordings, 1987-era recordings, and 2016 recordings, I concluded that I am experienced and can let down my guard. Then in 2021 Feb, I discovered:

  • often awful vocalization, not reliable (or lozenge – worst mistake ever; most horrible/unlistenable recording I ever released)
  • often awful miking/tech, not reliable.
  • often awful content, not reliable, eg typing.

That’s why my Feb 2021 recordings near start of Egodeath Mystery Show are heavily filled with vocalization refinement work, & miking R&D.

… because I wanted to be able to guest on Max Freakout’s Transcendent Knowledge podcast. For that goal:

  • I now am solid/reliable at vocalization unless my voice is shot in evening; — UK is my morning, so probably good there.
  • My content is solid / reliable.
  • My miking for that… is semi-routine in some ways but have to pull together for specialty hookup.

Commentary

latest ep: rec 2023/07/16, prod 2024/12/28

Hard to outline b/c unclear history of types.

It’s hard to plan outline of types, b/c so much is unclear at the start, how it grew from:
impromptu rant about my followers overclmpicating the Egodeath theory
too-exciting live format
low-key early episodes, “charmed”

Charmed Episodes or Recordings

A recent “charmed” epi:
hit record, talk for 4.5 hours,
minimal production,
ship it. result: excellent:
content;
vocalization; &
tech use. not to forget
transcribe to dedicated page

when was first dedicated webpage for an episode.

todo: add new episodes to idea development pages nearby date [of recording, or producing?] where would announced. eg pages 19-22.

voice recordings 1-16: shifts back & forth from no header to with header, and, header can be near unnoticeable, like “Gonna talk about x, which … ” – hardly a header.

Hypothesis: The set of segmaent live broadcast started as parts of a short header.
