Seaview has a television station. Nobody in this town is ready for it.

Maya and Dan work through the newest drop from Buster Goes Back: an entire local evening news bulletin from KSEA-TV Channel 9, anchored by the unshakeable Curt Redgrave. On the pier, a fight to save the Fandango. At the gates of the country club, a mayor who keeps being told no. And at the very end, a signature on a rejection letter that changes what we thought we knew about the Dalton family.

I'm Maya. I'm Dan. See you in the vortex.

Kleptograd, 1984. A general, a file, and a photograph slides across a table. The face in the photograph is someone you know.

Maya and Dan unpack the darkest and most cinematic drop in Busterverse history: a full Cold War period piece with no jokes and no mercy. Dan brings the real KGB history, Maya spots a connection to Episode 5 that reframes both drops, and there's an ending the hosts refuse to discuss at all. Watch the film first. Then listen.

It's morning time in Seaview, and Mayor Art Riordan would like your vote. Please ignore the potholes, the protests, and whatever is happening to his posters.

Maya and Dan break down the funniest drop in Busterverse history: a pitch-perfect parody of the most famous political ad ever made, and Dan has the 1984 history to prove it. Inside the golden sunrise footage there's a plot brewing, an old picture palace on the pier, some faces you know, 1 face you've been waiting for, and a final-seconds reveal that had both hosts shouting at the screen. Seaview will never be the same.

Maya and Dan go full conspiracy board on the week's clues, from a mysterious new arrival on bustergoesback.com to the first real details about Buster's father, a man with a fortune, a secret, and a story that begins long before the grow tent. There's a legend involved. Dan has a theory. Maya has egg rolls.

Silesia, March 1944. The vortex opens in a frozen forest, and 90 seconds later Buster is face down in the snow with a rifle at his head, inside the most secure POW camp in the Third Reich.

Maya and Dan break down part 1 of the biggest story the series has told: the real Stalag Luft III. Why the camp was built to be escape-proof, from raised huts to buried microphones to sand that betrayed every digger, and how a man with no papers, no coat and 1 pristine white sneaker on the Kommandant's desk ends up in the cooler, Steve McQueen style. Plus what the 1963 film got wrong, and a first hint of what hundreds of Allied airmen are quietly doing 30 feet beneath Buster's cell.

Dublin, 13 April 1742. Buster walks into a packed music hall on Fishamble Street to hear something nobody alive today has ever heard: Handel's Messiah, brand new.

This time the trip is no accident. Buster is a music lover, and of everywhere in history the vortex could take him, he's chosen the premiere of the most famous choral work ever written. Maya and Dan unpack the episode and the astonishing true history behind it: why Messiah premiered in Dublin rather than London, the charity concert that freed men from debtors' prison, the notice asking ladies to leave their hoops at home and gentlemen their swords, a shopping trip through a real Dublin neighbourhood called Hell, and a supper table shared with Handel and a very grumpy Jonathan Swift.

Who is Buster? Maya and Dan go behind the scenes of Buster Goes Back, the internet's favourite cult time travel comedy, and start where you have to start: the origin.

Meet Roger 'Buster' Dalton, Santa Monica entertainment lawyer, dedicated surfer and self-described weed lawyer with frequent flyer status. His life was sorted until a routine grow tent order turned out to be something else entirely, because the tent is a time machine. In this episode: the delivery that started it all, what it's actually like inside the time vortex (including the sailing ship nobody can explain), the ancient legend of a strain older than history, and a first glimpse of the mysterious Mori. Plus the reveal that changes everything: Buster is not the first Dalton this has happened to.
