What started off as a harmless crush to spice up the plot has now left you planning your outfits around a specific person…It’s okay. We’ve all been there. For episode 118, Enzo and Anna are diving deep into their history with crushes from elementary school to the present day. This week on Telepathy, they discuss childhood celebrity crushes, making up a crush to fit in, and deciding to like someone purely out of boredom. Anna reflects on awkward encounters in college, while Enzo analyzes her uneventful romantic life in high school (and now in college). They examine the negative side effects of a new hyper-fixation and the idea of changing yourself to be noticed. Enjoy!

the historical significance of wicked (in pop terms)
In episode 117 of Telepathy, Enzo and Anna are looking towards the western sky. With the recent release of "Wicked: For Good," Telepathy has many opinions ranging from casting choices to the unsettling symbolism in Oz. Enzo discusses Glinda's role in representing neutrality and performative activism as Anna explores the significance of Elphaba's trapdoor revival. They give commentary on the additional songs in the musical film, Dorothy's minimal appearance, Michelle Yeoh's performance, the chaotic press tour, and so much more. Most importantly, if you flip around MM (Madame Morrible), you'll be left with WW (Wicked Witch)?!

wait, it's embarrassing to have a boyfriend now?
"When a baddie gets a boyfriend, does an angel lose her wings?" Socrates, the Greek philosopher, once theorized. In episode 115, Enzo and Anna are weighing in on a relevant question in the media currently. The Vogue article by Chanté Joseph has left the internet wondering if it's "embarrassing" to have a boyfriend now. Though Enzo and Anna conclude that maybe this question is irrelevant if we just go outside, they still have many opinions to fill the 40 minutes. From gender stereotypes to feeling like a boyfriend is "republican," Enzo and Anna analyze the role of social media and the emphasis on creating an "online persona." As many give too much thought to how they are perceived online, people are now finding it difficult to curate how their relationship appears on Instagram...

what does it mean to be "cool?"
Fall is here, and the weather is not the only thing that is cool currently. For episode 114 of Telepathy, Enzo and Anna define what it really means to be "cool" beyond the superficial definition. To do so, they look to people in their lives to determine what characteristics actually make a person "cool." Enzo and Anna note qualities such as confidence and social awareness, and also analyze recent fashion trends to determine what makes someone's personal style "cool." They turn to the internet to assess "cool" public figures, including Billie Eilish, Emma Chamberlain, De'arra Taylor, and Alex Consani. From singers to supermodels, these celebrities all possess "coolness," but why? This is the burning question Enzo and Anna unfortunately needed 50 minutes to answer. Enjoy!
