We learned the truth at seventeen...or did we??! You'll have to listen to find out! THIS episode, we find ourselves trapped in the ultimate liminal space—an abandoned Applebees's with a rather...puzzling...layout. As we solve our way through the puzzle box that surrounds us, we unpack the ominous purpose behind some of America's most beloved recent trends—e.g. escape rooms and scooters—and finally give you the takedown of Orson Scott Card you've all been waiting for. It's Tim to grow up! | Logo by @NuleTheGoat. Music and audio mixing by @UndreamedPanic. Edited, as always, by Mathaniel. | Have some choice remarks for us, your humble hosts?

ANNOUNCEMENT: Back in a few weeks!!!!
Hello, fearless denizens of the Galaxy! The deep-voiced samaritan from our last episode returns to use his distinctly NOT-professional-grade equipment to update you on the show.
TL;DL WE ARE SORRY for the delay! We have a bunch of episodes recorded, but we need to get on a new schedule so they can be mastered properly. Once we have a backlog of mastered eps, we will return to posting every Tuesday. Thanks for your patience in the meantime!

18 | Not Flex and Chill (Renaissance Faires Are Overcompensating for Real Life Tragedies)
Well, we can finally buy lottery tickets and join the army, 'cause we're EIGHTEEN, y'all! Eighteen episodes old...imagine! THIS episode finds us hiding out from Ari's angry, hungry cat (whose name we remember the whole time) as we get into the sordid nitty gritty of Charlie's luckless love life. Our foray into the amorous leads us to unpack the mystifying culture around Ren Faires, a theory that ties in Shakespeare, Star Wars, and the gruesome fates of two planetarium curators who got a little too close to the stars... | Logo by @NuleTheGoat.
