About this listen
In the final episode of Season One, the hosts dive deep into Tread — a track that celebrates the emergence of human consciousness from the unconscious depths, using the image of sea creatures crawling onto land as metaphor for our collective awakening. Evelyn opens with a meditation on intimacy and evolution, while Orion frames the Bucketholders as mythic figures of integration — those who carry the unconscious with awareness and intention.
Steph calls out the wildest lyric in the song (“The Bucketholders arrive and kill the chess guru from Planet 9”) and demands answers, prompting Orion to suggest that the Chess Guru is a universal force suppressing human wholeness. But when it’s revealed that the Guru is actually the source of chaos, Vex spirals into a reframe — casting the Bucketholders as reality’s true restorers.
Production Notes reveals a surprising familial sample buried in the track, and Vex drops a final bomb: William Is may have over a hundred other songs online under another name.
This is Tread — and the Bucketholders have arrived.
