Episode notes
**Angelenos: Tonight (May 17th) at 7pm Guy and Karen will have a conversation about Why Karen Carpenter Matters at Book Soup in West Hollywood.**
In this penultimate episode, the Pop Rocket panel seeks guidance from The Oracle of LA, Amanda Yates Garcia. Each panelist pulls a card from the Oracle’s tarot deck, and gets an individual reading. What’s next for everyone? The answer’s in the cards.
Also, Karen Tongson tells us about her phone call with Elizabeth Warren this week. Presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren called Karen Tongson on the phone. Personally. Listen to hear how it went down.
If you were as impressed with Amanda’s reading as the panel was, you can subscribe to her podcast
Strange Magic.
Lastly, if anyone wants to ask the panelists for advice–about anything!–you’ve got less than 24 hours to call and leave a message with Guy’s mom: (530) 237-4108
