    Jul 21 2025
    A silly question has emerged from the crypts this time around! This episode ponders a deeply held curiosity... about Superman's digestive system. When he drops the kids off at the pool, does the porcelain throne explode? When his stomach disposes of the evidence, how much disappears? Are Kryptonian gut germs adapted to Earth?

  • Omegaversed
    Jul 14 2025
    This week, we unzip the metaphorical pants of the internet and crawl deep into the sweaty, scent-marked den of the Omegaverse. What is it? Where did it come from? Why is everyone growling? We’re talking heat cycles, scent ruts, social hierarchies, and the very horny tropes that define the genre, plus how fan creators are challenging and reshaping it. Also, somehow the court system got involved?

    We once again have a question that will guide everyone on the true path of being haters! Oh, Teddy Roosevelt, the guy who teddy bears are named for, the one who instituted state parks... also was a completely horrible person! Woah! Roll up your sleeves because we get into it this week with some eugenics and genocide. Sounds like someone else we know, eh?
