In this episode, a juicy one, we zoom in on our first look at the Noctchill—er, rather, the THE IDOLM@STER SHINY COLORS colab charaters, the "happy" Hinana Ichikawa, a being who appears to subsist entirely on liquid drawn in through her funnel-shaped mouth, and as a measured question: Exactly how much juice does she actually have? I'm talking mililetres here.

In this episode, the filial impiety finale of our Sancho September, we zoom in on the second half of Don Quixote, including the boldly blasphemous, bodaciously blood-drenched, bad-hair-day blonde big sister Manager of La Manchaland Don Quixote, who is somehow sad despite having a very cool lance, and ask a question that's a matter of degrees: Why isn't she straight? No I don't mean in her personal preferences, I mean like, you know, orthagonally?

In this episode, the midpoint of droll Sancho September, we zoom in on the dashing, the daring, the deftly puntable, the daft and drollest of them all THE DON QUIXOTE (or at least, look at the first half of her art, with the rest coming next episode) and ask a question fitting of her, on occasion, somewhat unsettling countenance: Hey, is this guy actually a bit messed up, or...?

Idle listener: thou mayest believe me without any oath that I would this podcast, as it is the child of our brain, were the fairest, gayest, and cleverest that could be imagined. But I could not counteract Nature's law that everything shall beget its like; and what, then, could this sterile, illtilled wit of ours beget but the study of a dry, shrivelled, whimsical man, in arts beset by drunken dads and sickly pale horses, by guitar playing ladies and miniature squires, by star wars heads and amalgamate uma musume. My wish would be simply to present it to thee plain and unadorned, without any embellishment of preface or uncountable muster of customary sonnets, epigrams, and questions, such as are commonly put in the episode description; I have given thee condensed all the squirely drolleries that are scattered through the swarm of these vain images of Don Quixote. And so—may God give thee health, and not forget us. Vale.

In this episode, one for the moms, we zoom in on the Mature, Intelligent, Lovely, and Friendly Sawako Kitami, a mother you'd like to meet at the grocery store, a mother you'd like to hangout with at an evening party, a mother you'd like to rob a casino with, a mother you'd like to...so on and so forth, and we ask a question and then ask it 98 more times: Do you love mommy? Well, then why do you never call her?

...If it isn't clear, there's a lot of Deltarune chapter 3 references in this episode. That's still the current hotness, right? It hasn't been eclipsed by some other, newer big indie game?

In this episode, an episode about eating semisolid foods while experiencing a medical crisis, we zoom in on our featured Operator and Food, the styling stormswept seafaring fish doctor Lumen, who's delicate constitution needs to be warmly nurtured, and...Jello...who's scary...we ask the question...what flavor is she...scary flavor...? Then, bring out the band with Jade Noodles, Wiš'adel, and Phoenix Tail Prawn, asking a very important question of you, dear listener: Do you think the hardworking men who care for our communites, who care for our loved ones, our children and our qilin, deserve love, support, and nutrients of their own? We do. That's why Soul Mates! is a proud supporter of the #OatmealForYaoiDoctors movement, and we want you to be to. Share it on your social media, or with your friends and family. Don't let this important cause go unnoticed.

Join the movement. Get it trending. #OatmealForYaoiDoctors

In this, Ivy's first time Gone Fishin' and the finale of Unceasing Summer Fun, it's time to play fully thirty hours of Infinity Nikki! In everyone's favorite machine for teenage girls questioning their identity, we're sent back in time to prevent the end of the world by hanging out with the coolest girl you've ever met, holding hands with extradimentional versions of ourselves, uncovering forgotten histories about snake marriage, and asking a truly sovereign question: Is there anything cooler than an electrician? The answer is no! Wait, it's only a four star!?

It's time for part 2 of Unceasing Summer Fun, getting acquainted with our new game through a Great Gacha World Tour! Local medium-level expert Kit is our fashion correspondent as we look around the streets of Florawish in Infinity Nikki. Keep an eye out for edgy ghost dresses, plastic bath cap fashion, river water boots, and the cutest overalls imaginable as we ponder a question that maybe only Kit can answer: Are all these dressup clothes... like... good?
