  • Summary

  • Welcome to Collected Possibilities, an Existential Explorer's Guide into the world of Carnivals, Fairs, Festivals, Amusements, Arcades, and Attractions. One day we're going to die, so let's make sure we're living our best life before then. Each week host Jason Heat and an ever changing roster of road trip partners channel the fear of mortality into motivation to explore a new amusement or attraction - from the odd and esoteric to the seeming but not quite so mundane - looking to inspire you to have an adventure of your own. Take a trip all across America, from the midway to the highway, the arcade to the concession stand, and listen in on some incredible conversations with fascinating guests. Part travel guide, part prompt for existential exploration, all a celebration of the weird and wonderful experiences out there. Life is a limited time opportunity. Make it memorable.

  • Interludes - Power Rangers, Pandas, and Presidents with Phil Stamper, Caitlyn Fitzgerald, and TJay Sykes

    Interludes - Power Rangers, Pandas, and Presidents with Phil Stamper, Caitlyn Fitzgerald, and TJay Sykes
    Jun 21 2023

    Illness has struck again, which means it's time for a new assortment of Interludes - hidden gems and deleted scenes from past episodes stored away to deliver big for just this moment! This week's collection is a series of entertaining anecdotes grouped together largely by one of my favorite rhetorical devices - alliteration. So much like an Episode of Sesame Street, today's episode is brought to by the letter P - for Power Rangers, Pandas, and Presidents!

    • First up is the President of Wrestling, PHIL STAMPER, who shares the origin of his title and some advice on leadership & responsibility.

    • Next CAITLYN FITZGERALD and Jason dive into the defacto mascot of the National Zoo, the Great Panda, and take issue with a certain subset of trolls rooting for species extinction.

    • And finally, "The Red Prince" TJAY SYKES gets passionate about his immense love for Power Rangers, and Jason accidentally trips into a genuine sore spot for the man & his fandom - because even after the better part of a lifetime, some pains remain the same.

    Enjoy these untold tales of past possibilities, and assuming Jason & his colon are on speaking terms next week, look forward to a new adventure then!

  • New Jersey Renaissance Faire with Brittany Truske, or "The Curse of Growth"

    New Jersey Renaissance Faire with Brittany Truske, or "The Curse of Growth"
    Jun 14 2023
    This week we're adding a new state and a new genre of attractions to the books in one fell swoop, with a trip to the New Jersey Renaissance Festival! BRITTANY TRUSKE returns as we enter a real life Choose Your Adventure book across an Arthurian backdrop; featuring themed performances, vendors, activities, and more! We debate whether to cosplay or not to cosplay, discuss the importance of ambiance and immersion to a successfuk Renn Faire Experience, cuddle with cows, sling bows, throw ninja stars, and drink Mead. Hear about a duck named Winston, the best costumes, and the dearth of interesting faire food. Is the New Jersey Renaissance Faire something you have to do before you die? Listen and find out! CELESTE This episode is dedicated in loving memory to Brittany's niece Celeste Perry, who tragically passed several weeks ago. Celeste was smart, filled with personality and attitude, and had a wonderfully dark sense of humor at a young age. She was a little girl who loved cats, unicorns, paw patrol, and had just developed a fascination for the Super Mario Brothers. She was also very strong, very brave, and determined to communicate and connect. When illness took her ability to speak, she fought and found a way to do so despite the complications. Celeste unfortunately suffered from Reducing Body Myopathy, an incredibly rare genetic condition that causes a breakdown of the muscular system. RBM is such a rare & little known disease that it doesn't have a significant level of public awareness or spokesperson to lead research fundraising.
