I started listening to “The Universe Next Door” early in 2023 and look forward to new episodes every week. I find discussions that delve into often overlooked or misunderstood text to be very enlightening. Topics range from the Divine Council to Christian nationalism.
The host and guests are knowledgeable and straightforward. I appreciate the insights they provide.

Hey Nick, I think that you are reversing the terms sometimes in your comments. Great show! I enjoy your insights and the depth of your knowledge.
But, occasionally, you call the pseudo-science of future telling ‘astronomy’ but I am fairly certain that ‘astrology’ is the correct term. Astronomy is the science.
