Podcast Overview

***New episodes coming soon!*** What is Fugues? The quick answer - it’s The Moth with neuroscience and music (and a bit of sci-fi...) A fugue, conventionally, is: (1) a piece of music with multiple melodies played at the same time and... (2) a trance state where a person experiences amnesia, and loses their sense of self. Both uses of the word have a beginning, middle and end. Taking a bit of license, each story we tell in this podcast will be called a fugue. And each fugue will illustrate a handful of mental ingredients. A fugue will also refer to any temporary mental state one is in. For example, you are currently in a podcast description-reading fugue. Hosted by Gabriel Berezin, some fugues will be autobiographical, others are contributions from special guests. ***Episodes 1, 2, and 5 are great places to start!***

Truth Is a Lie

Ever had a mouse in the house? Well my college roommates and I faced a full-blown RAT infestation in our first NYC apartment in 1999. Twenty-five years later, I was catching up with fellow rat-trauma survivor and old friend Ned Rauch when we started swapping war fugues. But before we went any further, I had an idea: what if we each recorded our versions separately? My memory seemed crystal clear and I assumed his did too. So I listened back and stitched our stories together to see where they aligned and where they diverged. The result is a fun experiment in the Rashomon effect - how two people can experience the same event differently. Seeing the variation made me wonder if we can ever truly see the world as it actually is. All this over some (slightly) oversized rats on West 109th Street.

Bully Smile

Do all bullies stay bullies? Growing up in 80s Lexington, Massachusetts, I was friends with Tyler Brooks - a kid who could terrorize smaller students one moment and charm parents and teachers the next. Something about him was uniquely Boston-coded. I figured my unofficial role as a bully's friend was to use my privilege for good. This episode was inspired by one fugue that I’ll never forget - an act of controversial kindness to save a younger kid from a beat down. My approach, while celebrated by my 80s family, would probably be frowned upon by modern standards. Despite social media tearing apart the fabric of society, it gave me a good opportunity to see if Tyler is still a dick.

What is Fugues?

What is Fugues? The quick answer - it’s The Moth with neuroscience and music (and a bit of sci-fi...)

A fugue, conventionally, is:

(1) a piece of music with multiple melodies played at the same time and... (2) a trance state where a person experiences amnesia, and loses their sense of self.

Both uses of the word have a beginning, middle and end. Taking a bit of license, each story we tell in this podcast will be called a fugue. And each fugue will illustrate a handful of mental ingredients.

A fugue will also refer to any temporary mental state one is in. For example, you are currently in a podcast description-reading fugue.

Hosted by Gabriel Berezin, some fugues will be autobiographical, others are contributions from special guests.

Episodes 1, 2, and 5 are great places to start!
