Binary System Podcast #509 – WTNV #289 “The Collection Plate” and Pluribus Episode 8

On this week’s Night Vale recap, Jalen is being awfully understanding about being in jail for a murder his dead doppelganger (probably) committed. But a secret ally is sending clues that could help Cecil solve the case, if Cecil can stop obsessing about his stapler long enough to figure it out. And if they don’t get murdered by the real killer, of course.

Then we dive into Pluribus episode 8, and go over all the new information about the Hive Mind that Carol’s uncovered, and how tough it is to stay stubborn and distant when an ENTIRE PLANET is nerding out about your book.

Clarification: yes St. Alia of the Knife is Dune. Elizabeth was thinking of Arya Stark.
