On this episode of Drinking Tea with Monsters, the podcast about OCD and other, less scary, monsters, Pri and Leela take an unexpected plunge into…the world of pants. Don’t ask why. No one really knows.
From there, things only get weirder as we uncover the truth behind one of pop culture’s wildest conspiracy theories: Did Avril Lavigne actually die in 2003 and get replaced by her look-alike, Melissa? We debate pop-punk’s legacy, millennial nostalgia, and whether the emo revival train ever actually stopped at the station. Along the way, we compare Avril’s story to similar mysteries surrounding Paul McCartney, Marilyn Monroe, and even Elvis.
Next, we explore the hidden side of OCD, the invisible compulsions that live inside the mind. From ruminating and reviewing to reassurance-seeking and avoidance, we unpack how mental rituals can be just as powerful (and exhausting) as the ones you can see.
And, of course, we drink tea with monsters. This week’s haunting guest: the ghosts of Himeji Castle, perched high on Mount Himeyama in Japan, a UNESCO World Heritage site with a chilling past.
Grab your favorite mug and tune in, it’s time to get curious, a little spooky, and maybe even a bit terrified this season.
