  • Ep. 145. Dinosaur Island: Week Three A Chicken with a Dinosaur Face

    This week, Chris is helpless in the face of a terrifying non-dinosaur threat, Matt looks on helplessly as children watch adults die in horrible ways, and yes we can make choices so we’re not totally helpless but there’s only so much you can do. It’s a fun-time show!

    Also, Chris challenges Matt to a user-generated round of Interactive Fiction or Episode of Ulysses 31 (thanks @TheWalkingDog6), Todd continues getting more horrible, Matt introduces the world to the gently expanding FinishItVerse, there’s plenty of Valentines and Festivale talk, and seriously these poor kids on dino island are getting deeply traumatized.

    Also, Matt challenges Chris to a round of Interactive Fiction or Episode of Dinosaucers, Todd is not getting any cooler, the boys find a very exciting page, the page gets its own jangle, and a stand-up bit about who gets the arms of the middle seat on a plane is poorly pilfered.

    • .5 oz lime juice
    • Passionfruit puree
    • Bundaberg ginger beer

    Shake rum, lime juice and puree well. Pour over ice. Top off with ginger beer. Hollow out half of lime and place a bit of bread in the hollow. Soak bread with lemon extract and set on fire. Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg over flame for nifty sparky stuff.

    The Kirin Volcano (non-alcoholic)

    Evenly combine passionfruit juice and ginger beer, sprinkle a bit of cinnamon and nutmeg on top.

    The Thagomizer

    • 2 shots Ron Zacapa (or any niiiice rum)
    • Juice of half a lime
    • Angostura bitters
    • Tiki bitters
    • Cherry

    Pour the rum, juice and bitters over a whole pint glass of ice and stir until it melts a bunch. Serve in a tumbler with a couple ice cubes. Oooh it’s good.

    O, Krampus Beast

    (traditional)

    On Krampus Days, these Krampus Days
    We celebrate Your glory
    Lord Krampus Beast, great Krampus Beast,
    We hail your gory story
    Your sulphur stench withers our youth,
    Your seven tongues can taste our truth
    Your visage at my windowsill;
    I close my eyes yet see you still
    On Krampus Days, these Krampus Days
    We worship Your true Power
    On Krampus Days we offer You
    Our sanity to devour
    Your poison crown of dripping horns
    Will rid us of our human forms
    Oh Krampus Thing, Great Krampus Thing
    You are the One True Winter King

    Here’s Your Krampus Carol You Monsters
