Neopians, grab your chia flour! in this episode, Kendall and Ceres explore the desecrated remains of one of the kings of the Small Net, Neopets. They explain how one of the world's first social media sites and online MMOs was hastily changed from a communist uptopia to a coporate hellscape and, eventually, fell through the hourglass only to be forgotten. Join them as they figure out how to redistribute fairie paintbrushes to the proletariat.
