- Hamsteak Episode 9: Guns, Germs, and RadiationIt’s a new episode in a new Act! 2 down, 4 to go. (This one’s Act 3.) Look alive!This week: It’s Jade! A bubbly oracle with a bent for remarkably dangerous hobbies. Meanwhile, Rose discovers a big pulsating underground server grid, Jade receives our first in-story trolling, and Dave gets wrecked by a literal puppet. Pages 2660 to 2769.Here’s a bunch of other stuff that comes up:Listen to Jade’s homemade music on page 2730.A YouTube upload of “[S] Jade: Play a hauntingly relaxing bassline.”Read the line “Jade is beginning to regret breaking the fourth wall for this ill advised escapade” and all subsequent narration in the voice from this video.We got asked for webcomic recs! Check out Octopus Pie by Meredith Gran and Cucumber Quest by Gigi D.G.We also got asked for book recs! Go read the Mars Trilogy by Kim Stanley Robinson, or Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino.Next week is Episode 10! Bad news: Lydia screwed up the teaser text again and we won’t properly see Bec until Ep 11. Good news: John confronts his father’s room, Jade confronts her grandfather, and a familiar-looking carapace agent confronts an enormous pointing finger and a very silly hat. 2770 - 2879.Ask us questions on Tumblr, Twitter or hamsteakpodcast (at) gmail (dot) com!We’re now hosted on Libsyn!This fresh, organic, streaming audio content has been delivered to your door by Alex (Tumblr, Twitter) and Lydia (Tumblr, Twitter).Homestuck, as always, is created by Andrew Hussie.Intro music: “Showtime (Original Mix)” - Malcolm Brown.Outro music: “Showtime (Piano Refrain)” - Malcolm Brown, arr. & performed by Kevin Regamey.1 hr 21 min
- Episode 8: The One Without Journalistic Integrity
So, we actually finish Act 2 in this one.
This week: We find out where WV really is, and who was there a long time before him (if you look carefully). Alien monuments do their thing. Pumpkins travel through time and space. Bro’s face is revealed, sort of. Curtains fall and we read a weird note. Pages 2624 through 2659.
There’s also:
- The Squirtle whose shades Bro is absolutely ripping off.
- A YouTube upload of “[S] WV: Ascend.” You’re going to want to pause and scrub through this one!
- The song from “[S] WV: Ascend.” is “Explore” by George Buzinkai, arranged by Michael Guy Bowman.
Next week we’re on Act 3! We finally meet the charming young lady behind the handle GG, as well as her beloved pet. Rose ends up someplace weird. It’ll be fun, you should come. Pages 2660 to 2769.

- Episode 7: Bro Fist Hug Bump
It’s almost the end of Act 2!!
This week: John does alchemy. Cantown is born. Carapace anatomy is confusing, GG is adorable, and the workflow of hypothetical postal workers is discussed at length. In other words, we read pages 2514 to 2623.
In addition:
- YouTube upload of “[S] Dave: Ascend to the highest point in the building.” Scrub and freeze-frame to your heart’s content.
- The song from that flash is subtitled “Dave Owns”. Really. (It’s by Robert Blaker.)
- An awesome, level-headed (but vaguespoilery) biological discussion of carapace people by tumblr user luzerna.
Next week, we finish Act 2! Our beloved Mayo[r] makes a paradox, names a firefly, and has the honor of being the first character to “[S] Ascend.” A lot happens between pages 2624 and 2659.
