On this weeks episode we go meta, looking at two different story structures: the hero's journey, as told through the lens of Studio Ghibli masterpiece Howl's Moving Castle, and the Fool's Journey, originally a tarot structure but may have a lot in common with many JRPGs. Special Guest Frejya joins in to wreak havoc while Drew is going over the Hero's Journey.

In the finale of the Female Monsters and the People who love them trilogy, we do a deep dive into the various female enemies from the first 8 Final Fantasy Games )(Drew keeps saying 9 in the episode but there were no good entries from 9) and then a bevy of Yokai, covering the rest of the female yokai from Drew's big book of yokai! Get ready for some tangents on #HagGoals and how sex workers deserve legal protection!
