This episode originally aired in 2018.How can an unscripted reality show, largely filled with vacuous individuals teach us history? For this one NEON goes way back and talks about the biological reason for finding a mate as opposed to the way strawberries or starfish can do it on their own. Finding a mate defines most of the natural world and a lot of human history too and Love Island shows us this. Add to that the dark under belly of human emotion enjoying mocking those less fortunate and you find out a lot about how the show works and about your own psychology in this episode.Written & Presented by Jem DuducuProduced by Dan MorelleMusic: Kwabs - Wrong or RightBe awesome, support us on PatreonSubscribe to the podcast on iTunes and follow us on Twitter

The TV show Lucifer is back on Netflix. One of the few hit movies Keanu Reeves has done that doesn’t involve gunplay is the devils advocate. So it’s the perfect time to talk about the devil. In this episode of Neon we take these 2 pop culture views of satan and explore this most ancient of evils. It takes us to areas that will genuinely surprise.Written & Presented by Jem DuducuProducer: Dan MorelleMusic: The Rolling Stones - Sympathy For The DevilSubscribe to the podcast and follow us on Twitter-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Instagram: https://instagram.com/NEONpodcastTwitter: https://twitter.com/NEONpodcast NEON Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/NEON-Podcast-617697421894792/History Gems Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/History-Gems-405343956153479/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------NEON Patreon SupportersCurly HooliganDavid RobertsonGreg ChapmanKatie Douglass Luna PixieTherese PrieurFredrick ShumateGo ad free AND get early access to full episodes, support us on Patreon: patreon.com/NEONpodcast
