VYS0051 | Can You Recommend The Moon? - Vayse to Face with Phil Ristaino - Show notes
Finally finding someone who is more obsessed with Twin Peaks and Under the Silver Lake that they are, Hine and Buckley enthusiastically welcome Phil Ristaino to Vayse. Phil has an intimidatingly impressive CV, as an actor, artist, singer and host of the joyful, thoughtful and perhaps a little insane Post Relevant Podcast, a podcast which analyses the meaning and symbolism of Under the Silver Lake and Twin Peaks the Return in minute, intelligent and perhaps a little insane detail.
The discussion galavants from Phil's special areas of obsession, Under the Silver Lake and Twin Peaks, to his wider thoughts on magic, the essential intrinsic delight of creativity, art as an expression of life... and then out of nowhere Phil recommends the moon... (Recorded 9 June 2025)
Thanks to Phil for his time and thanks, as always to Keith for the show notes - you can find him on Bluesky here: @peakflow.bsky.social

VYS0050 | One And The Same - Vayse to Face with Peter C Hine - Show Notes
By some miracle Hine and Buckley have made it to episode 50 and to make the occasion they welcome to Vayse close collaborator and friend of the show, Peter C Hine. Peter is a podcaster, writer and musician from Manchester UK. Together with Stephen James Buckley he co-founded Vayse, a podcast about weird stuff, now celebrating it's 50th episode. The conversation flows from how Vayse was formed, how Peter first became interested in all things weird, why his magical practice is on pause, how deep disillusionment with the current occult scene runs, what does the future hold for Vayse and just how many time can he mention Six Ways, Hellier and Penny Royal in a single interview? (Recorded 22 May 2025)
Thanks to all our guests over the last 50 episodes and to everyone who has listened. Thanks as always to Keith for sorting out the show notes - you can find him on Bluesky here: @peakflow.bsky.social

VYS0049 | Machines of Loving Vayse - Vayse to Face with Sequoyah Kennedy v2.0
VYS0049 | Machines of Loving Vayse - Vayse to Face with Sequoyah Kennedy v2.0 - Show Notes
Imagine, if you will, a world burning as society crumbles (is this stretching you?), in the perpetual, scorched twighlight of a dying planet, the determined foot of a tall figure crushes a skull on a landscape forged of human bones - that foot belongs to Sequoyah Kennedy and the human bones are the vestiges of the common myths and misunderstandings about artificial intelligence... apparently AI's are better than humans at devising effective metaphors in order to convey useful information - and we'll have to hope for their sake that's true.
In this episode Hine and Buckley invite back to Vayse one of the most intelligent and articulate humans in the material world, Sequoyah Kennedy. Since the Nonsense Bazaar ended SK has gone deep down the rabbit hole of large language models and has returned to help Hine and Buckley get their heads round what artificial intelligence actually means in 2025 and dismisses some of the ubiquitous confusion which surrounds the topic: is the best use of AI as personal assistant and unpaid artists? Are there demons haunting cyberspace? Do androids dream of electric sheep? and he touches on one of the big questions of our time - are we all in very real danger from this soulless, characterless mockery of human ingenuity with no empathy, no conscience and no soul... or will Elon Musk just finally piss off so that we can live in glorious harmony with our wonderful, wise robot buddies? (recorded 11 March)
Thanks to Sequoyah for his patenience in explaining these ocmplex ideas to two middle-aged luddites and thanks, as always to Special K - the man who makes sense of our ramblings, Keith who once again did a sterling job of the show notes.

VYS0048 | Chinese Sex Balloons - Vayse to Face with Edwina Quatermass-Palmer - Show Notes
Making her podcasting debut, Hine and Buckley welcome the weird, wonderful and wonderfully weird Edwina Quatermass-Palmer to Vayse. Worker of a job so secret that Hine and Buckley actually know what she does, possessor of the coolest name available to the English speaking world and wearer of a genuinely gravity defying hairstyle, EQP is an original and brilliant thinker, a valuable and treasured member of the Vayse discord community, a musician and rambler on the path less travelled. The conversation moves from early paranormal experiences in the, frankly incredibly named, Christmas Room of the Jacobean house that she grew up in, to her discovery of Crowley, root work and her dabbling in Chaos Magick. One of the most fascinating and unusual facets of EQP is her life-long relationship with the Great God Pan, and she talks in detail about how he appears to her, how he communicates with her and what this has meant to her over the years. The free ranging discussion also touches on the nature of creativity, retro-causality, the art and influence of the late, great David Lynch, and the question on everyone's lips... is EQP CIA?... (Recorded 3 February 2025)
Thanks to EQP for being so candid and open with us on her first podcast and thanks, as always goes to the great Keith, working to make sure that these podcasts make some semblance of sense, one show note at a time. You can follow hom on Blue Sky: @peakflow.bsky.social

VYS0047 | The Weird Review Of The Year 2024 - Show Notes
[Caution: This episode contains an extreme weariness for bullshit that some listeners may find triggering] 2024 was a tough year, weird but tough. And looking back over it doesn't make it any better. In what amounts to a rapid and inexorable descent into madness Hine and Buckley pick apart the weird and, frankly, fucking dystopian year that was 2024. Bouncing between jaded despair and hysterical mania the Vayse boys mull over the topics that dominated 2024: UFOs, Artificial Intelligence and Elon Fucking Musk. Whilst stumbling around in the intoxicating embrace of the seemingly endless darkness they also uncover strange stories of interconnected dreams, robot dogs with flame throwers, robot faces with living skin, bowls of goo with pong skills, plots to genetically engineer super-sheep, a surprising number of goblin attacks and perhaps, maybe, possibly a giant lake dwelling cow...? Recorded 22 January 2025
Massive thanks to Keith who had to tackle the show notes for this long and difficult episode - you can follow him at: @peakflow.bsky.social

VYS0046 | Ding Dong Merrily On High Strangeness - Vayse to Face to Face with Stephanie Quick and AP Strange: Christmas 2024 - Show Notes
Ho, ho, holy shit that's another year gone and Christmas is here again! To mark the ever-increasing speed at which the years fly past in a blur of spiralling anxiety and gathering doom, Hine and Buckley invite two of the nicest, wisest and funniest people in Weirdosphere, Stephanie Quick and AP Strange, to help them celebrate away the winter blues.
Drawing on the British tradition of telling ghost stories at Christmas, Hine, Buckley, Strange and Quick (also the title of the upcoming Vayse autobiography) work their way around the cardinal points, each telling a ghost story from the place in which they were born: the North and South of England and the East Coast and West Coast of the US. There are tales of a murderous jester who stalks the corridors of a Cumbrian castle to this day; a red haired woman who haunting a pirate-built cottage in New England; a missing bride at a Christmas wedding in a very haunted stately home in Hampshire; and a revolutionary Californian abolitionist who still throws nuts from trees over 120 years after her death... and they discuss three lesser known British winter traditions: Raymond Briggs' Snowman, ignoring Thanksgiving and moaning about the weather... (recorded 8 December 2024)
Thanks to AP and Steph for preparing the stories and thanks to Keith for another year of show notes - follow the man on Blue Sky: @peakflow.bsky.social.
Merry Christmas everyone, thanks for listening!

Even more bewildered than usual, Hine and Buckley welcome writer, researcher, academic and DJ, Bob Cluness to Vayse. Bob's areas of interest include cultural studies, aesthetics, phenomenology, film studies, the weird and the eerie. Hine and Buckley nod along and try to keep up as Bob showers them in interconnecting concepts and fascinating insights with torrential force: What is hyperstition? Who were the CCRU? How does accelerationism work? Was Chaos Magick a revolutionary movement or an emanation of the emerging neoliberal capitalist system of the time? And exactly what is Nick Land's problem... (Recorded 29 July 2024)
Thanks to Bob for patiently explaining everything and thanks to Keith for the mammoth effort in show noting this one! He deserves a follow for that alone: @peakflow.bsky.social

VYS0044 | For Fear of Little Men - Vayse to Face with Jo Hickey-Hall - Show notes
They've talked of night-time scaries,
they've talked of shadow men,
but they daren't talk of fairies,
for fear of meeting them...
Bravely, valiantly, courageously, boldly confronting a topic that they have avoided delving into for the past two years, Hine and Buckley take a trip into the terrifying world of fairies with their guide, researcher podcaster and author, Jo Hickey-Hall, creator and host of the hugely successful Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast. Jo talks beautifully on the subject and the conversation flits magically around the topic on gossamer wings and a cloud of enchanted dust: what exactly are fairies? Where did the common "Tinkerbell" trope come from? Do fairy sightings herald a transitional period in the life of the observer? Are some humans part fae? Can anyone see fairies? Just how frightened should we be of the fae?... and what do Pukwudgies, puppets, pork-pie hats and the Monster Munch monsters have in common? (Recorded 11 November 2024)

VYSXXXX | The Real Vayse: Halloween 2024
Since October 2023, Vayse HQ has been regularly receiving mysterious, confusing and unsettling emails, seemingly from all over the world, all hinting towards the same impossible conclusion.
In this episode the Vayse boys launch an investigation into where these weird communications might be coming from and who might be behind them with a little help and a lot of expertise from some familiar and very welcome faces: Douglas Batchelor, Darragh Mason, Sequoyah Kennedy, Joseph Matheny, Stephanie Quick and AP Strange. The deeper they dig, the more they find themselves falling down rabbit holes within rabbit holes within rabbit holes... (Recorded October 2024)

Facing down a huge topic that they have been wanting to talk about on Vayse for years, Hine and Buckley enlist integrative therapist Dan Lowe, to guide them through the massively dense, often confusing and incredibly weird life and work of Wilhem Reich.
Dan is massively knowledgeable on the subject and gives fascinating insights on Reich and is patient when Hine and Buckley asking him what can only be frustratingly basic questions: What differentiates Reichian therapy from other types of psychotherapy? What is Orgone Energy? What is emotional armouring? Was there a conspiracy against Reich? Did cloud-busting really work?... and what did Kate Bush actually know about Wilhelm Reich anyway...? (Recorded 29 August 2024)
Thanks to Dan for indulging us in asking questions on a subject that we know next to nothing about and thanks as always to Keith for the show notes - give the man a follow: @peakflow.bsky.social
