On this week’s Night Vale recap, when the creepy ice cream truck appeared we thought it was one of those awful stories about creepy ice cream guys preying on people. It’s not. IT’S SO MUCH WORSE.
After that we have a spoiler-filled recap of Pluribus episode 5: how did the Hive Mind react to Carol’s stunt with the truth serum? With the biggest, most passive-aggressive breakup EVER.
Plus there’s segues into phone scammers and safe words, books about paladins, Netflix kids accounts, and a loooooong tangent about Torchwood and how we’re still pretty mad at them for all the torture porn.
