Thank you very much to Joanna for commissioning this episode!
Okay so I may have overdone it with how much I read for this episode, but please have mercy on me and keep in mind that I am but a weak-willed woman filled with passion and curiosity. And I was justly punished for my overeagerness, because something truly horrifying happened in chapters 44 and I wish I didn't know it.
Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Max for commissioning this episode!
So this is the one where Father and Hempstool face off, and Hempstool really thinks that he's got a great plan for taking Father down. Turns out, he has dramatically underestimated the evolution that Father has undergone, and the attack he so carefully planned doesn't work at all.
Also, our guys get gripped up and pulled through the portal again, along with Izumi, and weirdly Al is not inside his body.
Thank you so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to Yama for commissioning this episode!
This is the last episode of Young Wizards for the time being, and since in the chat Yama expresses some interest in perhaps doing a bulk commission of the next book. If that doesn't pan out in a couple months, I will try reading them on my own and sharing my thoughts in the Discord.
I really liked the way this book ended, and I have a lot of questions about what Dairine thinks is going on with Roshaun. Fingers crossed I get to find out soon!
Thank you so much to you all for listening, and I hope to see you soon!

Thank you to Florian for commissioning this episode!
So we're into the next round of the Day Back Fights, and at first things start out okay. We've got a very intense game of Red Light Green Light, there's the usual cheating and goofiness, and I'm into it.
But then. Then, my friends. Luffy walks out with an Afro.
Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

So we've got the big fight here between Greed and Wrath, and while they're going hammer and tongs on the rooftop, we have the crew with the Armstrongs and Izumi inside dealing with the last of the immortal soldiers, and then coming across one of the generals that was in on the plan. This fucking guy is trying to argue his position and Izumi whacks him with her fucking sandal and it's everything.
Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

These are the episodes where the team plays roller derby against the Foxy Pirates, and they actually manage to get Chopper back. However, Luffy is immediately baited into agreeing to another round, and you know what, I'm not mad about it at all.
Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Kyle for commissioning this episode!
These are some fascinating chapters, and also a little saddening for me personally. Because of my personal dislike for Jia, I assumed that her assurances that Phyro isn't ready for the throne were just a ploy for her to retain power. But the more we get to see of this situation, the more correct she seems to be. Even Zomi believes Jia is right.
I'm still not loving Jia being in charge tho.
Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you very soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Max for commissioning this episode!
This is the episode where Wrath decides that enough is enough, and he is here to completely fuck up everyone's day.
Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Florian for commissioning this episode!
I'm so excited about this arc, and I lowkey wouldn't mind staying here for a while because the combination of no collateral damage and the goofiness of the games themselves is really hitting a sweet spot for me. It's also great to get to see the gang all together and not getting separated from one another!
Thanks again to you all for listening, and I will see you again soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to Max for commissioning this episode!
This is the episode where our people seem successful and they begin to celebrate...only to realize that the Fuhrer is standing in doorway.

Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you again soon with a new episode!
