This week we are finally getting into the canons as we have been promising, and what better to start with than Third Law and who better to guide us through it than GreenWolf, one of the founding writers of the canon. So, listen in as we talk about the grounded supernatural world of geopolitics, the strengths of Star Trek DS9, and the ideological split between the hosts when it comes to reboots. Oh, and read some of the stuff we link below, dammit. Greenwolf’s Author Page : https://scp-wiki.wikid...

Today, we're welcoming Plaguepjp back, because we're not done talking about the wonders of the 8000 contest. So many incredible articles were dropped for this contest, and we can't move on without discussing more of them. In this episode we each picked an article from the top 20 of the contest, and we discuss our own as well, so it's a deep dive into our head spaces in writing these articles and writing in general. Fair warning, it gets pretty heavy. ------- Please check out Grigori’s completed ...

In today’s episode we discuss those articles submitted to the recently completed 8000 contest on the wiki that didn’t get enough attention. We also welcome back plaguepjp (winner of the 8000 contest!) to the show to help us. And we talk a bit about writing for a theme and dealing with the stress of participating in a contest where you could get a lot (or not enough) attention on what you’ve made. ---------------------------------------------------------- Please check out Grigori’s completed seri...

It's the end of 2023 and we wanted to get one more episode out before the new year, so we dug deep into the bucket of questions we got before (and gathered some more) to bring you three more hours of Grigori and Harry waxing poetic about deep and not so deep questions.

This episode we have plaguepjp back on our show to discuss more SCP-001 proposals, but this time we chose only three of the really meaty ones and go on a deep dive into each.

This week Grigori and Harry welcome Captain Kirby (fairly legendary author on the SCP Wiki and co-creator of the End of Death canon) to discuss a very interesting subject: Stories that recontextualize or reinvent or reinterpret an older more established idea/character on the wiki. The wiki has been around about 15 years now, and it’s a fairly common thing when a newer author looks back at something published to the wiki in the years previous and thinks “Hey I could do something cool with this.” ...

Imagine an eldritch horror arriving in the heartland of America, now imagine this horror doesn't want to eat people or ruin the world, it just wants to live the American dream. Also, it has no idea how to behave like a human but tries its best. That's TotleighSoft. And its manic, absurd, horrifying, and absol...

Finally we’re doing something long requested, an episode about 001 proposals! As anyone knows, the wiki’s premier articles are these epic and unique articles often representing the culmination of an author’s work. So seeing as Harry has written one before, we got another guest who had as well, welcoming back Plaguepjp to the show (it was his idea to do this episode actually). We talk about some of our favorites, what sets an 001 apart from the rest of SCP, and how Harry and Plague went about wri...

We each picked three to talk about and then read your emails to see what you thought.

Today, despite the serious doubts Grigori has about this subject, Harry has blackmailed him into doing a " hidden gems with the Chaos Insurgency tag " episode. Spoilers, neither of them much likes this GOI - it's shallow and fairly boring, but the challenge was to find a show's worth of articles to talk about and showcase... and by god we did it!
