Binary System Podcast #289: WTNV #197 "The Life of Frank Chen"
Original broadcast date November 4, 2021. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2021/11/binary-system-podcast-289-wtnv-197-the-life-of-frank-chen/
Well, we had "The Many Lives of Frank Chen", "The Many Many Lives of Frank Chen", and "The Nearly Infinite Lives of Frank Chen". It makes sense that the saga of Night Vale's most famous dearly-departed would wrap up with "The Life of Frank Chen."
It's a quiet, weirdly heartwarming story that's very satisfying (other than the fact that we still don't know what's going on with Hiram McDaniels). After the recap we discuss the latest two episodes of Lore Olympus (I hope the characters are all cozy under that BUS everyone keeps throwing each other under), and take an odd tangent into a medical drama series from the 1980's and wonder if we're just imagining that streaming services are chopping bits out of our favorite old TV shows FOR NO REASON.
The outro music this week is a clip from Monster Stomp by TeknoAXE.
Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person? Want to buy them (or yourself) a square foot of a castle in Scotland? Look no further! You can support the restoration of Dunan's castle, legally call yourself Lady or Laird, AND if you use http://www.scottishlaird.co.uk/#_a_2gk to get there, you can support this podcast too!
