Carlwood encourages the community to use the RSVP system at highersidemeetups.com to build local networks. The show ends with a theme song rendition by Chasing Maxwell and a final sign-off from the host.

The title of the book The Moth and the Iron Lung refers to the 1892 gypsy moth infestation in Medford, Massachusetts, which led to the invention of lead arsenate. This sticky pesticide was sprayed heavily on fruit trees and was linked to a 1894 outbreak in Vermont where both humans and animals became paralyzed. Maready points out that because the polio virus does not affect animals, the simultaneous paralysis of livestock suggests a chemical poisoning rather than a viral epidemic.

Tobias Churton concludes the interview by directing listeners to his website and his books published by Inner Traditions of Vermont. He mentions he is currently working on his 22nd book and reaffirms his status as a leading scholar of Western esotericism in the United Kingdom. The host expresses appreciation for Churton's passion and scholarly rigor in researching complex historical figures.
