About this episode

Ever bumped into your ex in a city of 8 million people? Thought of a song and it played on the radio 30 seconds later? Missed a flight that literally crashed?

Yeah. We need to talk about that.

Is the universe sliding into your DMs? Is it fate? Divine intervention? A glitch in the Matrix? Or is your brain just really, really good at lying to you?

This episode is a wild ride through the science of coincidences-the ones that make your skin prickle, the ones that redirect your entire life, and the ones that make you wonder if someone upstairs is messing with you.

We're unpacking: 🎲 Why you experience a literal "miracle" every month (math says so) 👁️ The real reason you keep seeing 11:11 (spoiler: it's not your angel) ...

This episode will make you question everything. Your breakup? Maybe not fate.

We've got Jung vs. Freud throwing hands over synchronicity, neuroscientists spilling the tea on pattern recognition, and enough mind-bending science to make you rethink every "weird" thing that's ever happened to you.

Warning: You might stop posting "the universe has a plan" on Instagram after this. Or you might post it harder. Either way, you'll know why.


Perfect for: over-thinkers, reformed astrology girls, anyone who's ever said "WHAT ARE THE ODDS?!", skeptics with trust issues, and spiritual people who want receipts.

🎧 Hit play. The fact that you found this episode right now? Probably just the algorithm. But what if it's not...?
