Thank you so much to Ashleigh for commissioning this episode! This is the one where the girls decide that they're going to enter into a talent show as the Spice Girls, and are completely killing it, but end up being derailed by a very hot plumber that Erin thinks is railing her mom. Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to the One Piece Crew for commissioning this episode! In this trio of episodes, we find out about the deal that Robin made to turn herself into the marines in exchange for their restraint in attacking Water 7 because she was so intent on saving the friends that she made in the Strawhats. We also see that there's a distinct similarity in the way that Robin ignores the potential consequences of her research and the way that Frankie made weapons without thinking through how they might be ...

Thank you to Max for commissioning this episode! This is the one where the Sire, the original vampire who is the ancestor to every other vampire, is neglected and escapes from his cell. I really enjoyed this one because I was a big fan of the added lore, as usual, especially since it remains inconclusive. And of course, the Baron is back! Delightful! Thank you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode.

Thank you to Kyle for commissioning this episode! So this recording is kind of fun because I start out saying one thing because it turns out there's a post-credits scene that I missed initially...well, you'll see! But it was delightful to me. And of course, I'm rooting for Guillermo learning to manipulate Nadja and Nandor, but he's not as successful as consistently as I'd hoped. Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Kyle for commissioning this episode! In these chapters we get to see how Jia is taking some of the information being sent her way about the pirate problem going on around Unredeemed Dara. But mostly what we get is more of the competition between the Splendid Urn and the Treasure Chest, and I'm starting to get frustrated with our side for their lack of creativity in dealing with this clown. Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to the One Piece crew for commissioning this episode! In this trio, we get to see some of the history of Water Seven's sea train and its creator, Tom. Turns out that Kokoro was his wife, and sheand Tom took in Icebarg and Franky as apprentices and taught them a great deal about shipbuilding. But sadly, Tom didn't have a lot of interest in playing by the usual rules when it came to clientele, and he lands himself in some hot water. Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see...

Thank you to Ashleigh for commissioning this episode! In this premiere for the third season of a truly delightful show, the crew decides that they're going to break into their school to find out their test results early, but they interrupt some intrepid robbers and unwittingly help them out. Meanwhile, Joe and Gerry nearly come to blows over the issue of Seamus the cat. Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Joanna for commissioning this episode! In these chapters we're getting a look at one of the other Houses Of The Veil, namely Manuscript, which is a house that focuses on illusion magic. Darlington is none too pleased when they manage to drug him into making a fool of himself at party, but it's interesting that even after the drug wears off he still believes that what he saw was real. Meanwhile, Alex is over here getting attacked by yet another unseen being, this time in a really pub...

Thank you to the One Piece crew for commissioning this episode! I'm really loving the direction things are going in, both with Frankie turning out to be Not So Bad, and the fact that there's a spirit to the Going Merry that manifested for Usopp to see and hear. There's something very touching about all of this, and I'm fascinated to see what happens with this ship and what happens to Frankie. Thank you all so much for listening!

Thank you to Max for commissioning this episode! In this installment of their adventures, our friends head to Atlantic City to celebrate Charmaine and Seanie's anniversary. Turns out there's some more lore about the vampires that we hadn't heard about, and their ancestral soil is actually important in this universe as well! But they aren't as careful with it as they should be, and Guillermo winds up going on a quest to replace it. Thank you so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a n...

Thank you to Joanna for commissioning this episode! So in these chapters we get a few further juicy tidbits about what happened at "Ground Zero" and I'm chock full of vague theories with no basis to them whatsoever. Also, we get info about the murder of Tara, which for some reason has gotten under Alex's skin and she's not sure why. And then there's the vague undercurrent of anxiety the comes from the fact that she's on academic probation and is desperately trying to hold on to her place at Yale...

Thank you to Kyle for commissioning this episode! These chapters concern the complete desolation wreaked by Cutanrovo and her so-called "Purification Packs", and then the restaurant war still going on between The Splendid Urn and The Treasure Chest. Cutanrovo has seemingly backed Tanvanaki into a corner, and we find out that poor little Mozo Mu is being blackmailed to participate in this contest. FUCKING HUTO.

So this is when we find out that Frankie is actually part of Icebarg's backup plan, and it has to be really embarrassing for Icebarg that Lucci figured it out like this. However, Frankie is off somewhere harassing Usopp so it remains to be seen just how CP9 is going to get the blueprints from him. Meanwhile, Luffy punches ineffectually at iron bodies, and Chopper admires Zorro's iron body. Thanks for listening, and I will see you so...

Thank you to Joanna for commissioning this episode! These are the chapters that tell us what happened all those years ago to cause Alex to fall apart. I was surprised to see what a supportive and loving mother she seemed to have, and I'm sure it broke her heart to watch her daughter start going down such a destructive road. Alex has had some truly harrowing experiences, and I'm not sure that Darlington is ever going to find out just how bad it really is. Thanks so much to you all for listening, ...

Thank you very much to the One Piece Crew for commissioning this episode! So this is the episode where we get the big reveal on who the CP9 assassins/agents are, and this is a genuinely surprising reveal. I wasn't ready for ANY of this, and I'm kind of delighted.

This time it's all about a woman named Gail who he has grown very attached to over the decades, but the same can't be said for Gail, who has her own whole thing going on. Meanwhile, Laszlo finds his old jalopy and decides to take it back, with the help of Colin Robinson. Thanks for listening, and I will see you all soon with a new ep...

Thank you to Joanna for commissioning this episode! I'm kind of blown away at the direction this book is going, because there's a difference between "I'm not sure what to expect" and "There was no possible way to be prepared for the weirdness". And you know what? I'm into it. In these first chapters, we meet Alex, who is attending Yale and can see ghosts. But she's not a Yale student who can also see ghosts; she's a Yale student BECAUSE she can see ghosts, and the shady organization at the heart...

Thank you very much to Kyle for commissioning this episode! These chapters are each very delightful in their own ways. First, we get to find out that Volyu is not getting the rewards for his betrayal that he was expecting, and is in fact being sent back to his people in such a way that he may wind up getting punished if there's any justice. Also, Toof and Radia are not traitors! They were helping! YAY! But my personal favorite, unsurprisingly, was the first installment of Restaurant Wars. Thanks...

These are the ones where we finally get to see what Frankie is made of...and it turns out he's made of a lot more metal than I expected. Also, we've got the shooting of Icebarg, and I'm really not sure what the hell the deal is with Nico Robin being involved. I'm not SURPRISED she's involved, but I don't understand it. Oh also there's a giant storm coming and the whole bottom part of the island is going to be underwater soon! Thanks...

Thank you so much to Joanna for commissioning this episode! It's the final chapters of this book, but it's certainly not the end of the story. There are a lot of fun and delightful surprises packed in this section, one of which almost made me cry with relief, and another that made me feel all warm and fuzzy. I am SO excited for what comes next, and desperate as well. I hope we get a sequel soon! Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode of something!...

I'm so glad that I got a little respite from all the horrific atrocities that have been happening to just chill with the food workers and theatre kids. They're a delightful crew, and I'm looking forward to them managing to at least thwart and possibly take down a man who is not only a selfish greedy piece of shit, but also the kind of scum who agrees to traffic human beings.

It's the final chapters, and there is so much happening that despite assuring Asher that I would get to their questions about favorite moments in the book, etc, I wrapped without ever mentioning them again.

Thank you to Trish for joining me on these episodes, which were very upsetting and it was good to have a friend to lament to about them. These episodes are the ones where Usopp leaves the crew, and then challenges Luffy to a duel for the Going Merry.

But only one of them can reign supreme. Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you in a couple weeks with a new episode!...
