When a ceremonial dragon egg vanishes from the palace vault, our crew is dispatched to recover it — or at least look like they’re recovering it. Cheyenne's secret orders, Mr. Green’s weaponized laser pointer, and Captain Tracy's ongoing breakdown collide in the messiest mission yet. This one has everything: rebel camps, wizards with interns, jungle fires, and one very angry baby dragon.

Mr. Green just wanted to make it home for dinner.

Instead, he faces deep space scurvy, bureaucratic betrayal, and the uncomfortable truth that survival comes at a cost.

In this episode of The Economy of Nothing, Mike, Mike Allen, and Ryan dive into Mr. Green’s fractured loyalty, Captain Tracy’s stubborn morality, and the myth of Deep Space Scurvy. Plus: for-profit orphanages, gladiator pits, and a galaxy that runs on deadlines, not dreams.
