  • S1E23 ♪Cat Boy Soda♪
    May 4 2025

    In this episode, a musical episode, we zoom in on the cat boy hacker Ling, a misanthropic, mahjong-hating computer whiz with no regard for electrical safety, and ask a legal question: How much of Hatsune Miku's Black Rock Shooter can we put in the episode without being sued?

    Editor's Note: The audio in this episode is a little bit rough! We had some technical issues that should be fixed next episode. Thank you for your patience.

  • S3E3 Barks At You
    Apr 21 2025

    In this episode, woof woof, we zoom in on our featured Operator and Food, the ontological butler and part-time magician certified Nice Guy Steward, and the boxer (swordfighter? wrestler???) who you could never mistake for anything but a cutie Ganache, and ask a snark question: Have you ever seen a better pair of guy who can serve punch and guy who can take one? Then, we look at a grab bag of Special Rice, Windflit, and Ebenholtz, asking... uhm... I've got nothing, sorry. Writing descriptions while sick is hard...

  • S1E22 She's In Good Hands
    Apr 6 2025

    In this episode, our April Halloween special, we zoom in on spooky girl Ayako Morikawa, the occult loving, arm-cursed teen with lots of friends (as long as dolls, ghosts, and mirrors count) and ask a moving question: Was the ancient curse posessing your human form just a lack of self-acceptance all along?
