Oz 9

Our crew land on a strange planet ... and find someone truly strange. 

BUT: here's your chance to hear a chunk of Dr. Theo's novel as our turnip greens attempt to evade what Joe refers to as "the stupidest way to die we've come up with yet."

Yes, I KNOW we said January, but hey, it's January somewhere, right?

The Oz 9 crew are finally (?) done with their plant-based emergency and have broken free of the Milky Way Galaxy. They're currently lurking in a galaxy that (if you're looking at it sideways and are 8 years old) has a vaguely rude shape. That should keep them entertained for a while.

Anyway, they might actually get off the 9 and explore a strange new world here soon, so now's probably a good time to say goodbye. Before they, you know, poke an alien.

Please stay through the end credits to hear a very cool trailer for a very good show.

And we haven't gotten any reviews for, like, AGES, sooooo, if you wanted to, you could, like, leave us one or something. No biggie.

I tell ya, you turn your back for, like, three months, and someone just shoulders their way in there and takes over your ship, your characters... sheeesh.

ANYWAY, if you're familiar with podcasts A Ninth World Journal or Deconstructive Criticism, you've already enjoyed the work of our own Dr. Theo Bromae, better known as David S. Dear.

In this bonus episode, he gives us a glimpse of life behind the curtain. And in front of the toilet door COME ON ALREADY SOME OF US HAD RICE KUDZPIES AT SNACKTIME.

Our music is by John Faley; our artwork is by Lucas Elliott. Typically, Sarah Golding is our dialog editor, and Oliver Morris is our sound designer, but you have Shannon Perry to blame for those this time. This episode of Oz-9 was written by David S. Dear.

Welcome to the Audiotorium. It's Discussing Oz 9, with Narrator and Narrator 2, Pluto, and other assorted folks.

If you're not familiar with the Discussing Network and their stable of shows, Discussing Who, Discussing Trek, and Discussing Comics, you really could be listening to that instead of this. (http://www.discussingnetwork.com/) 

But in the style of Discussing Stuff, it's a review of Oz 9's season 4, so if you haven't listened to all of season 4, well, spoilers, sweetie.

This episode was written by Kyle Jones and features ...

Our theme and other music is composed and performed by John Faley. Our artwork is by Lucas Elliott (who also did our COMIC BOOK and our cool pin set!! https://oz9podcast.etsy.com). Sarah Golding is our dialogue editor. Oliver Morris is our sound desiger. Oz 9 is written by Shannon Perry.

If you struggled through the classically complex and layered story of the last four seasons, you're not alone. It was, as Mrs Sheffield has it, "more twisty-turny than my graduate teaching assistant's insides after my AP Honours' Intestinal Inversion lecture and practicuum." 

So Dr. Charles Tucket, who you may remember from another hiatus episode, The Oz 8000 Biosphere: Portrait of a Refuge, has been unthawed once again to provide some much-needed and hopefully not teeth-grittingly dull exposition and explanation.

Good luck. Take notes.

It's possible someone dies in this episode. I mean, it's possible someone dies in EVERY episode — it's really pretty astonishing when no one does — so you should probably pay attention today so you understand the chatter around the old fishbowl at work tomorrow.

Today's bonus information: a really tightly woven Italian suit can protect against some wimpier weaponry. 

And just like that, another player is removed from the board. One episode left in Season Four, space monkeys. Will anyone survive?

Is anyone else hearing a weird ... flapping sound? And feeling a tiny bit of a breeze? But like, a weirdly hostile breeze that's just coiled up and waiting to turn into a tornado, given even a hint of a reason?

Just me? Huh.

Well, it's episode 78, and if you haven't learned your lesson by now, I can't help you. 

Also, there will be (WAS says voice from future) a live listen-along for season-ending episode 80, so keep your eye on our Twitter (@oz9pocast) and our website (https://oz-9.com) for that one.

Content warning: There are some big emotions in this one, so please take care of you.

We're getting closer to the end of Season 4, and ... well, that's it, really. We're getting closer. Break out the confetti because you get a break from us!

Well, probably. We're kind of like barnacles — we have to be scraped off and then we still leave a sticky residue.

Anyway, lots going on in here, so I'll just leave you to it. Pass the sandwiches. And the tissue....

It's entirely possible this story has spun a wee bit out of control. But then, isn't that a lot like...life?

I mean, take your basic ergonomic keyboard. Don't you want to bash its tiny electronic brains out on a rock, only it was expensive and nominally doing something useful for your hands or wrists or something? While that might be an overreaction, might it also be considered an entirely understandable response to the fact that every time you try to type an exclamation point you get that weird squiggly tilde or whatever that thing is called, and let's face it, for some of us, there's just not that much call for a tilde, as I don't speak a language that requires it, nor do I need to indicate "approximately" that often-

Sorry.

Just ... listen to the thing. Or not. Whatever~ oh for fu-
