Binary System Podcast #429 Return of the Sit-Rep, Take Two!

We didn’t actually plan to do a second sit-rep episode so soon. Unfortunately another gigantic event hit the US in the last week, causing a lot of uproar and basically making everyone’s lives harder. That’s right, Netflix cancelled KAOS after only one season. It’s an unacceptable state of affairs and we demand to speak with

The air’s getting cooler and the nights are getting longer, so Night Vale is celebrating with a corn maze and all the fun things that go along with it: caramel apples, pumpkins, laughing, screaming, zombies, acid-filled sharks, and existential dread. Ooo and cider! As soon as we escaped the rusty chainsaws and applied corn-silk tourniquets
