Greg Carlwood announces his participation in the "Magic on the Mountain" event in February at Mount Shasta, hosted by the Gramerica team. The extended weekend hangout will feature several speakers, Q&A panels, and group hikes to the base of the mountain. Carlwood notes that while the pricing includes room and board, spaces are limited to approximately 50 attendees.

The second hour of the interview for THC Plus members covers the ritual death of George Michael, the work of Miles Mathis, and the manipulation of the punk genre. Listeners are encouraged to subscribe to the Plus service for five dollars a month to access the full archive and support the show against potential censorship. The host signs off for the month of February, teasing upcoming episodes.

February 2017 features two eclipses—a penumbral lunar eclipse in Leo on the 10th and an annular solar eclipse in Pisces on the 26th. Eclipses are viewed as gateways that bring latent or hidden issues to the surface, causing events to move much faster than usual. The end of February is highlighted as a potentially "semi-terrifying" period in the news due to intense Mars activity coinciding with these celestial events.
