  • Episode 219: Jello Enlightenment

    We decided to save the turtle story for next week, hoping to have a good one for next time, and leaned into "The Dragon Princess" this week, which is a story with very few action words in it. Hope you like learning about pearl stat blocks though.

    Suggested talking points: a Boatwatch jingle, dolphin skiing, swiping dragons, Trojan swallow, dragon experience, dragon wishing pearl classes, pearl TCG, Dr. Quackfrog, pisskid superheroes

  • Episode 218: Egg Poems

    Content warning: child deaths.

    Apologies for a patch of rough sound in the middle, it's about ten minutes: a piece of hardware came loose mid-recording.
    We're reading "The Woman With 366 Children," a story that really misses its mark on trying to land a morale, but what's new?

    This episode brought to you by executive producer VersusMe101, Aarne-Thompson type 316, "The Mermaid In the Pond"

    Suggested talking points: egg poems, big hedge, Gregorian III, Sesame Street war powers, the Muppet wars, couple of Simbas, curse poops, mouse births, known coward Rob Minkoff, holy super soaker

  • Episode 217: Beethoven's Smooth Criminal

    This week we're reading "Prince Slugobyl," a prince we're actually kinda into, which is rare. It's too bad that he's overshadowed by the much better Megahorse.

    Suggested talking points: the Slugobyl generation, a forced lady voice, summoning Michael Keaton, Userpent, infinite genies, megahorse, Knight of the Whimbus, Beethoven's Smooth Criminal

    Tyler is determined to sustain himself entirely on "Into the Spiderverse," and we're trying to fix out how to fix the toxic gaming community. Spoiler: it's really easy to do and we're surprised it hasn't happened yet.

  • Episode 215: Cyber-Grognon: Gracieuse and Percinet part II

    We're very taken with Grognon, and very much NOT taken with Percinet, for reasons that will become very clear soon. Grognon continues to be an interesting villain, and Percinet continues to be JUST THE WORST.
