0:00.0	Hi, my name is Chris Brennan, and you're listening to the Astrology Podcast. In this episode, it is Thursday, January 21st, 2021, starting at 523 p.m. in Denver, Colorado, and this is the 288 episode of the show. So joining me today are Ian and
0:16.9	Shay from the Campry Education Podcast, and we're going to be talking about the topic of explaining astrology to non-astrologers or how an astrologer would go about answering some
0:28.7	skeptical questions about astrology. So hey guys welcome to the show. Hey thanks for having us. Yeah
0:35.2	thanks for having a summit we're really excited to be here. Yeah thank you so
0:39.1	the genesis of this episode is that you guys have a podcast called Camp re-education, which is available at camp re-education.com, and you approached me about being a guest on your show because you do these episodes each month where you investigate

1:56.3	understandings and interpretations of the things that are.
1:59.7	Okay, and I think I'm actually following the QAnon episode,
2:03.0	so that's a hard act to follow.
2:05.0	The timing was wild,
2:08.8	because as soon as we started doing it,
2:10.0	the day that our first episode was released,
2:12.2	the capital building was formed.
2:14.0	The capital was stormed, yeah.
2:16.0	So then it went from being like a fun like larping thing to like there are people
