We did something different with the Night Vale recap this week, because it’s really two stories in one: first we’ve got to talk about how much we haaaaaate Dr. Janet Lubelle and her stupid smug face, and she better not lay a finger on Carlos because we WILL riot. Then go over the weird tarot
Okay we’re gonna rocket through the recap of episodes 221 and 222 of Lore Olympus in record time, just over ten minutes, because there’s STILL NOTHING HAPPENING. I kid, I kid. EXCEPT NOT REALLY. We love this webcomic to bits, the artwork is top notch, and the relationship between Hades and Persephone is the most
This week’s Night Vale recap has a lot of fan art requests and T-shirt moments, but it’s also us just being flat out amazed that Cecil can get interrupted by his kid every five minutes and it’s always stress free. It’s not saccharine, it’s not annoying, it’s not even a little frustrating; Cecil Baldwin just
Happy Thanksgiving! (Or, if you don’t celebrate Thanksgiving, Happy Thursday!) Somehow after last week’s recording we got on the subject of cookbooks, specifically the “Little House on the Prairie” cookbook that we checked out from the library a dozen times before we got smart and bought our own copies. And that led to a discussion
This week was one of those Night Vale recaps where we took way too many notes and got dangerously close to just repeating the episode word for word because it was so, freaking, CLEVER. (Station Management’s memo to Cecil about the stupid basement is the best.) We managed to stick to the highlights, but we
Episodes 217 and 218 of Lore Olympus didn’t answer a ton of questions, and by that I mean we STILL DON’T KNOW WHAT APOLLO IS UP TO. Okay, yes, we got some good information about how Kronos was able to take over the Underworld. And we find out what happened to get Thanatos AND Thetis
We joke about how Lore Olympus moves at a glacial pace, but we sometimes forget that the story jumped forward TEN ENTIRE YEARS and now the pieces need to be filled in. So, minor spoiler warnings for episodes 215 and 216, because we got a lot of backstory for Kronos and Thanatos, but we still
Ten years ago we loved it every time Cecil on Welcome to Night Vale ranted about how much he hated his stupid brother-in-law STEVE CARLSBERG. If you’d told us back then that, come 2022, we’d be 100% on Steve’s side, we’d have told you that’s about as likely as Hollywood greenlighting a Sandman series. Funny
“There’s so much pathos here about a ROCK.” The only thing we’ve got to say about this week’s Night Vale episode is Doctor Lubelle MUST BE STOPPED. (Also watch out for the murals. They’re probably fine. But let’s just evacuate the area anyway.) After we finish spoiling the heck out of that episode, we switch
