Control is the exercise of power over people, systems, or narratives—often through manipulation, authority, or institutional mechanisms. It operates at individual, social, and metaphysical levels.
In the Psycheverse
Psyche critiques control as a primary function of organized religion and cultural institutions, examining how programming and manipulation shape consciousness at both seen and unseen levels. The show treats control as a central tension in spiritual awakening—between external systems designed to limit awareness and the liberation that comes from reclaiming personal sovereignty.

The episode 'Whats on Your Plate food themed Horoscopes for the Season of the Crab' is a thought-provoking discussion on truth, trust, and loyalty, intertwined with a critique of modern society and media. Psyche delves into the idea of 'eyes open always' and the importance of being aware of one's surroundings and the intentions of others.

The episode 'Let's Hang Out!' features Psyche discussing various topics, including his perspective on freedom and funk, and a significant portion of the episode is dedicated to a conversation about a person named Carl, who is described as erratic and controlling.
