Since his death in 2009, the world has struggled with how Michael Jackson should be remembered,
as the King of Pop, or as a monster.
The new podcast Think Twice, Michael Jackson, offers a fresh perspective on the art and
the artist, his life, his work, and his legacy.
Listen to Think Twice, Michael Jackson, wherever you get your podcasts.
Academy is a new scripted podcast that follows Ava Richards, a brilliant scholarship student
attending Bishop Gray Academy, the country's most exclusive boarding school. The following podcast is not real, but it continues to be the plucky, mistreated orphan
Annie to earwolf's Miss Hanigan.
And we can't say no to the ongoing sweet, sweet sponsorship of Cards Against Humanity.
There are so many addresses in the world, one of them is Cards Against Humanity, 1917
North Elston, Chicago, Illinois, 6'0642.
Care of Arnie Neacamp, Vermillion Minotaur, Town of Hogsface, Land of Foon.
But that's just one address. Can you name them all?
And now enjoy the podcasting equivalent of a hand-crafted Amish stool with one of its legs permanently chewed off by disgruntled wolves.
Hello from the Magic Tavern.
A weekly podcast from the magical land of fune.
I'm your host, Arne and E. Camp.
If you've never listened to the podcast before, our best days are behind us, but still,
this is what you need to know.
About a year and a half ago, I felt through a dimensional...
That's the truth.
It is, but we're soldering on.
A year and a half ago, I felt through a dimension. It was said we're gone. I said, yeah, I mean, yeah, you said those were
our best. They use is with you. So yeah, those were our those we will never recapture the magic
literally of that time. Uh, but I'm recording a podcast now. It's just fast shaggy and catch
frees McGee. Uh, boy. Yes. There was a time when I could get through the introduction.
Yes, there was a time when I could get through the introduction was also in the past. I felt like maybe I didn't know it But maybe it was you said or standing behind me giving a back rub during the opening back rub so much almost more than anything. Yeah
Well, I'm all you know, I record this this podcast in the Vermilion
Minotaur every week and I have to learn me. I know all this I. I know, I know, and I'm now just joined by my only regular
co-host, Chant the King of the Badgers.
Hello.
Hey buddy, how you doing?
I'm not good.
We've, you know, we had the loss,
used the door, the wizard, turned into a vampire
and then was irrevocably killed.
So now it's just me and you bud.
Yeah.
Man in the ship.
Till the end.
Man, you're the man in the ship?
Manning the ship?
Oh, I thought you said like, you're the man
and you're the ship.
I don't know where you're going with that.
I'm the man, you're the dog now, man.
I don't know if I'm saying that.
You know, I've been poking around in some books and some tomes and some grimoires trying to find maybe some dark magic
What is a grim war exactly? I've heard that time. It's like a big book a big book
Okay, like maybe it has a little standard podium, but it's just like nicely leather bound
Mm-hmm. You'll you'll put it up and you can't help here a thud sure no matter how many how few pages you do
Yeah, just one page, but it's a thud. Yeah, it's a thud. Wow. So you've been poking around some
grim wires and trying to find a spell that might bring back you so far. So far nothing. I even went to,
I don't think we've told you about this. What? Did you know that deep and the heart of the forest?
In the heart of McShingle Shand Forest. Yeah, there's a real nasty bar. It's called the ruffled feather. No, and it's all the biggest narendewils
Really worse than the smoldering widow
That's about on level one about the same. It's just but it's in mcshankleshain for yeah, so it seems creepier because it's darker sure
So you went to this real rough bar in the middle of mcshankleshain for us
Trying to just set up some people for some information. Maybe here's some gossip
I went I went with like with like a black cloak over me,
so I looked a little disguised.
Sure.
I disheveled my fur a little bit.
People feel like,
and I spoke like this.
Like, hello.
Like Peter Falk?
You don't know, that's an interesting thing.
I don't know.
Yeah.
And is Peter Falk more important than
what I was distressed at?
Hmm.
That remains to be seen.
Well, just one more thing.
Just one more thing before I want to go.
Yeah.
So I listen, you know, in the Ruffold Feather, and unfortunately I have no new leads.
Oh, okay.
Is the Ruffold Feather, oh, because they do dark magic in the Ruffold Feather?
Yeah.
Chant, look, I'm as used to door as much as you do, but I think it's a bad idea to get into
dark magic to try to bring him back.
Okay, well I think it's a bad idea that you set off for the quest for the lunar sword.
Well luckily I've been doing it very slowly. Very, very slowly. Look, Chant, when someone
passes away, it is common for people to do irrational and stupid things that they shouldn't
do instead of just doing normal ways of letting them go. I pierced my nose. You pierced your
nose. That's right. Holy cow. I'll turn so you can see it. Yeah. I was going to get one
of those Libre pierces. What does that mean? It's like your blow or lip. Get a little
bit. But you just went with the nose. I just went with the nose, you know, I was just feeling sad
and I went to my friend Claire's place and I was like,
just do it.
Uh-huh.
Didn't hurt?
It's looking a little bit, in fact.
Yeah, do you know what a piercing is?
I do, we have a needle through your skin.
Yeah, it hurts.
I didn't know if there was some kind of magic
that makes it less hurtful.
I wish.
Well, Sean, you know, we're doing a great job
hosting this podcast, just the two of us,
but we aren't trying out some other co-hosts.
Never to replace a skull bear.
Pizza skull is not back.
I, you know, I wasn't so into the pizza skulls co-host, but I did think what if we
trying to have a host that could be usador?
What?
What if we had a host who could be Yusidor?
You didn't, you just repeated what you said.
You just said the same thing again.
No, no, no, but listen to this.
What if we could have a host who could be Yusidor?
I am Yusidor.
Where's our known as?
From home of Ephesians,
Master of Lights and Shadows.
The manipulators call me magic called the lights.
The champions call me the great balls of surrogates.
I am known in the hills as feline my line.
I am known in the hills and valleys
as big blueberry, skinkelberries.
Good news.
The people at the east call me Gatswinius, Mastor.
And that's all my names.
I'm gonna ask you one time, what the fuck is this?
It's a memory gremlin.
I thought I went out and I found the memory gremlin
and I thought look the memory gremlin
can suck our memories of Yusidor out of our brain.
Yeah.
It could take the memories of Yusidor out of our brain
and could sort of recreate Yusidor on the podcast.
Yeah.
This seems really healthy.
Hi.
Hello.
Well, I feel like this is going to be weird
because I've known use it or forever
and you've only known them for a year or so.
Oh, so like my memories of use it
or won't be as accurate as your memories.
Yeah.
Memory Grimlin, when you recreate someone,
do you take it from just one person's memories
or you can do like a collective memory grab? You can get a group pack, yeah. A group pack? If you want to, yeah.
Normally it's just a single person, but I've had, you know, a bachelor party, you
know, want to have a collective memory of someone or... Well, I have to add some
follow-up questions on that. What have like the bachelor party,
what do they want to have a memory of?
Usually if like, it's like people that went to college together,
it's like an old teacher or a...
It's like before I get married, we've got it.
Okay, I don't think I want to know more about,
I'm really on the edge of...
What are bachelor parties like on Earth?
You don't conjure memories of your mom or old teachers what would you do I mean I
don't know maybe we'd go to Vegas and go to a lot of buffets no sounds
exhausting for new listeners by the way the memory Grimland you steal people's
memories that's right and you can sort of recreate people from their past and
usually memory Grimland uses that to lure people to their death.
Yeah, well, when I was growing up,
I was taught that I could take someone's memories
of a person and then be that person,
only based off of their memories,
kind of like a mirror, but I usually used it to eat people.
Sure.
And kill people.
But then I went to college.
The University of Phoenix.
University of Phoenix. And I am a changed memory grandmother.
Oh wow, we met by when you stole the memories of my wife out of my head and tried to learn
me to my death.
Yeah, oh, that was, you know, I have mixed emotions about that time.
It was good and I feel bad now.
Sure.
Because, you know, I don't take people's memories without their consent anymore.
That seems like a healthy change.
And now I am a Rainbow Bridge Reef Counselor.
What is that?
What is a Rainbow Bridge grief counseling?
Rainbow Bridge grief counselor is a person that comes into your home if you hire them.
So okay, let's say that you've had someone that died.
And your friend said about it.
You hire a Rainbow Bridge grief counselor
that is a memory grandmother.
They come into your house, they take all the memories of that person that you loved.
And then they impersonate all the worst parts of that person in your home
for two weeks at least, if you can stand it.
Until you say, get out, I'm so glad you're out of my life.
Sure.
And then,
Glad you're dead.
Glad you're dead.
You were a pain in my existence.
Yeah.
Clearly a horrible person.
And then I leave,
and the rainbow bridge is complete.
Wow.
I like to out.
I mean, when someone you love passes away,
it's good to try to finally get to that place
where you say I'm glad they're dead.
Well, I'm glad that you're using your memory
Gremlin powers for good dish instead of evil.
Yeah, well, I don't eat people anymore.
I'm a vegan.
You're a vegan.
I'm a vegan.
So what do you, so I mean, I guess you just mean
you eat plants.
I only eat vegan.
You only eat vegan? What, what is vegan? You you eat plants. I only eat Veeeg. You only eat Veeeg?
What, what is Veeeg?
You know, like the little, have you seen grass?
Yeah.
Okay, yeah.
Have you seen the stuff under grass?
Um, dirt?
No, the Veeeg.
The patronizer.
What do you, what the fuck are you talking about?
The Veeeg.
The Veeeg.
Between the grass and the dirt, the Veeeg.
Between the grass and the, so it's just,
How long have you been here?
The bottom of grass?
No, I'm remembering why I didn't like this.
I mean you.
Oh, fair enough.
So, Chun, is this common for memory grimmons
to actually turn to good?
I don't think so.
Yeah.
I haven't met many, but...
Yeah.
I know you know this one very well
Well, not very well. I mean briefly
So I hate to stop you guys, but I feel like you're hurting right now. I mean I I know I'm hurting Yes, we are I can really feel it in the room. There's a lot of grief here. Yeah
I don't know if I buy this well
Maybe we should get back to sort of a version of my original idea, which was we bring you in.
You pull my and Chunch memories of Yusidor out of our head.
You turn into Yusidor and we have Yusidor to at least be on one more podcast.
Listen, this sounds like a great idea. Nothing could go wrong.
Great. I've always been meaning to ask, is the transformation painful?
I've always been mean to ask, is the transformation painful?
A little bit. It's like, have you ever had burning acid on your skin and you can't get it off And all you have is like a small bottle of clotted cream to help and it's just like not enough. No, it's like that. Oh
Well, thank you for going through that. Oh
Okay, well, let's do it. Okay, great.
So, all right, so you guys go ahead
and hold each other's hands.
Okay.
Both hands.
Oh, you.
Okay.
And you're into each other's eyes.
All right, this is hard around the microphone.
Now, try to like slowly move
into towards one another
and like tilt your heads the opposite way
as though you're going to have intimate moments.
All right, so...
Keep going.
All right, how close do we get?
Okay, so now think of you, sir.
Mm-mm.
That's it. I am Yusudor, with the 12th realm of a fesious master of lights and shadows.
Do I need to get my face closer to Chuts to make the voice sound more like Yusidor? I... a master of the... Dingle Barriers and the Tingle Barriers and...
walking through the blades of grass.
I... have...
burned down the halls of Tarakas with my power.
Are you sure you didn't have a spintite set of our rings?
How dare you...
Memory Grimlin, I'd remember Yusidor better than this.
You do?
Yeah.
I... this is the best I've been able to muster so far
Yeah, those weird birds
Yeah birds yeah, bird's buddy
You love all birds except for one which bird don't you like?
Starlings sterling. Yeah, I don't like the sterlings and
Sterling's sterling? I don't like the Sterlings and when I think of Arnold's warm embrace, when he made love to me in the forest.
What a wonderful day.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Alright, back.
I've learned that I hate watching that process.
That is very gross.
It is very gross.
Hey, you have some clotted cream.
You know what, let's take a quick break.
We'll get you some clotted cream.
You really look like you're in a lot of pain.
And we'll be right back.
Okay, memory Grimland, I hope that feels better. But then which room I keep calling a memory Grimlin, I hope that feels better.
Which remind me, I keep calling a memory Grimlin,
that's not, do you have a name? I feel so bad, I never knew your name.
Yeah, my name's Fee Heng Yellow.
Your name is Fee Heng Yellow?
I know, it's so embarrassing, right? My parents aren't even elves.
Oh, your parents gave you an elvish name.
Yeah, they thought it was cool.
Uh-huh.
Totally. Do people give you nicknames based on a few ones, few ones, do they remember?
Fingy, yelik.
Fingy, yelik, I'm sorry.
Yeah, well they used to call me Fangy.
Fangy?
Yeah.
Because I have a fang.
Oh, you do have a fang, it's true.
And my name is Fingy, yelik.
Mm-hmm.

Dengie, Ellie.
Dengie, Ellie.
Fengie, Ellie.
Yeah.
Man, that reminds me of you, did you?
I know.
I was thinking of Fengie because he turned into a vampire and Ellie because he used to scream
all the time.
Yeah, I'm the ceaseless.
You guys, if you like.
You look fengie, you, I know that it's painful.
But would you mind one more time being used to door for us?
Bring back the real thingy, Ellie.

I want to take you over this rainbow bridge.
Thank you.
Hey!

100% accurate.
Yeah, I feel like this is pretty close.
Yeah, pretty close.
Who is our guest today Arnold?
We don't have, we don't have a guest.
I guess I shouldn't have just gotten a co-host.
I hear him, I remember you saying,

Oh, yeah, you're right, thank you.
Who is our guest today Arnold? Well, it's Arnie when I say Arnold. Oh yeah, you're right. Thank you. Where is our guest today, Arnold?
Well, it's Arnie.
Yeah, I'm his uncle. Uh, uh, but I think you're a fat idiot.
That's this seems pretty accurate.
I'm gonna finish that rainbow bridge.
Chant your disgusting act with bad habits.
Oh, I see, that's right.
I hate this. I don't wanna hate you, sir, remember?
I don't wanna get to the point where I said I'm glad he's dead.
Yeah. Great. I don't want to I don't want to hate you serious memory. I don't want to get to the point where I said I'm glad he's dead. Yeah
Great You you never do anything
He's really saying but you know
I mean she's saying all the things he would say to me when he was alive
It's really no different like for you. He's being a little more aggressive towards you
But for me, it's kind of a steady baseline about you already. This isn't about you
This is about I feel nothing but pity for you.
You should probably just lay down and die.
It's the best you can all for. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Like a final shutter there that yeah, yeah, it has to close real fast.

To the delights of Magic Eye! Ah!
Ah!
Oh!
Oh, I was wrong.
That's the memory Grimlin.
So wait, if you're the memory Grimlin, then...
Who are you?
I return to you now in your hour of greatest need.
For this show has become nearly un-listenable.
Yay, I am now returned to you as you said all the slightly lighter blue
You you are slight you look like you said or is it you I just washed this
I just I time I came back to life. I washed this robe and I came back
I'm just you said all the blue, but you can see like it's a lighter blue. It light on the leg. Yeah, it's like bird shit off of it. Yeah, like an acid wash
Thank you, you said you said what? I thought you were dead. I thought you were irrevocably I cannot say that word
Irrevocably you're revocably dead. Yeah
Though I did turn myself into a vampire sadly and I was nearly struck down by that monster hunter
with his mystical amulet.
I know I was drawn inside of the amulet where most mortars would find themselves no longer
living.
I found myself transformed and freed of my vampire curse. The essence
of Yusudor did escape, said Emulate, and wake him in my bed at a direct 90 degree angle.
That was a really long answer, that's definitely Yusudor. Welcome back, buddy.
Yusudor, what's so good to have you back?
I just good to be back, and you are lucky to have me.
And I'm just so excited that you somehow were able to come back to life by some kind of
Tolkien gesture.
Ah, yes, yes, it was no trouble for I, for I was only slightly dead.
You see, I was only dead for a moment when the vampiric elements were pulled from my
body as I was torn about by the amulet.
And then what was left of you, Sador, was able to coalesce.
Oh, what's the game?
What does Coloss mean? Come together. Oh. Oh, what's the good? What does coalesce mean?
Come together.
Oh.
How are you, Fanny?
Oh, I'm glad I graduated college.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
And now I have a steady job.
Oh, that's wonderful.
And I'm not everyone's my parents anymore.
Oh, that's a bad one.
I don't eat people anymore.
Oh, that's a big one.
That seems like a big one. I don't eat people anymore. Oh, that's a big one. That seems like a big one.
I don't either.
Oh!
We have that in common room.
Oh, okay.
Is it?
You said, or did you know that you and Fangie Yelli had the same name?
Of course.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh.
It's a non-common name, but common enough that when you hear someone else has it, you're like,
I heard, hello.
Yes. It's weird., I know, was similar.
The main plus we have, we have the annual conference of the Fien
Yelix. Oh, there's like a meetup of Fien Yelix.
All four of us. Wow.
Anyone, who are the other two?
One is a horse. Oh, okay.
There. And one is a wish that the horse made.
That's right. That's correct.
Wow.
I'm just so happy you're back you store. Our own thingy yellow is back. Yeah. Come here. Let me
touch you. Oh, our old yellow is here back from the dead.
Oh, I, oh, onald. You fat sack of crap. When are you going to
damn it? When are you going to do something useful? This is
you're right. This is pretty much exact. I got to say
memory grandma and you are 100% dead on. It was really hard to separate, you know, the
actual version of Usador in your mind and the meanest version of Usador in your mind
because they're virtually identical. Pretty much the same. I do not want to see your
version of Chant. Yeah. Oh, but though, Though I do speak ill of you at times, I know that you have a greater purpose here in
Foon. I for some day your great mystical abilities drawn from this earth in realm shall free all a
Foon. Yeah, you shall be integral in the plot to defeat the dark lord. I and now I return it in you by my
side and our good friend the king of the Badgers. I am the newest friend, the memory Gremlin.
We shall all come.
You know what?
I really miss you, Yusudor.
I will join your quest.
Not just on the podcast.
If we can get a band together,
I will join your quest and go off to fight the Dark Lord.
Yes, finally.
Ha ha ha, chunt.
I'm in, baby. Yes, Finally. Ha ha ha. Chant. I'm in, baby.
Yes.
Yeah.
And the fellowship now complete.
Prepare to set forth.
Complete?
That's a, that's not, it's complete.
We have a makeup artist.
We have a name.
Yeah.
We have a spy.
Already at work.
Uh huh.
And there are probably some other people
there in the middle.
Yeah, then we've forgotten.
Yes.
But you're, you're just barely real live.
You can't be expected to remember everything.
I'm sure I haven't written down someone.
Sure.
Hey, can't have you guys ever heard of spin-tax agreeing?
He might be fun to add to this.
Oh.
Well, you sonore, it's so exciting to have you back.
And memory Grimlin, what do you prefer?
You prefer feline, Yelik.
Do you prefer feline, Zellik?
You prefer fangie, fangie, Yelik? Do you prefer feline, Zellik? You prefer fangie, fangie, Yeli, Yeli?
No one prefers feline, Zellik.
I would go with fangie, Yeli.
Fangie, Yeli?
That's pretty good.
Fangie, Yeli would have been a good name for me.
That's way would have been absolutely a good name for you.
I turn into a vampire, and I am often quite loud.
It's true.
Hey, you know, if you're a listener at home,
you can always send emails to any of us. You should or chant myself
Fangie Yelli. You can email me at Magic Tavern at puppies.supplies. It's a really email address.
Here's an email I got recently. Oh, I apologize. It's a little long. Hello, Arnie.
I was taking a shower and thinking about your Wi-Fi struggle and I came up with a hypothesis.
What if the reason the Wi-Fi signal is weak and spotty is that the dimensional rift does not link two realms together but instead transports
things to the next realm along the Earth-Foon cycle. What I mean is you went through it from Earth
zero to Foon one and SpinTax went through it from Foon one to Earth two and if he went back he
would go to Foon three and if he went through again he would
go to Earth 4 and so forth.
If this is true the Spintax you sent would not go to the Earth you left and would not return
to the Fune you are in whereas a Spintax that came through the portal to your Fune would
not be the one you sent but he would have visited the Earth you came from, only halfway
through it. Perhaps a life I only works when the realms are synced up, and the Arnie
of Foon 1 sends the same data to Earth Zero that you send to Earth 2, you could test this
by installing a packet sniffer on your laptop, and see if you're getting lots of packets
from Earth that your computer is ignoring because it didn't ask for them.
If the packets can be assembled to form non-garbage information, this hypothesis is likely
to be true.
Another possibility, guys, there's another thing.
Another possibility is that the dimensional riff does link two realms together, but periodically

Psycho's realms, if this is the case, we do not need to suppose any parallel
arenies for the Wi-Fi to work poorly. However, this is a much larger cause for
concern, which realms with the Rift cycle through? I'm not even sure if I'm
saying sends this anymore. Earthlike or other, and would there be an upper
limit to the number of Earthlike realms? Sorry for the very long email.
Hoping you find some answers, and also wondering be an upper limit to the number of Earth-like realms? Sorry for the very long email.
Hoping you find some answers,
and also wondering if you have already found some answers
by the time you receive this email, Jeff Fujimoto.
The name is Far Eastern and pronounced phonetically,
Jeff Fujimoto.
Thank you, Jeff, for that feedback.
I got a question.
Yeah.
So in the first sense, he said he was on the shower.
Mm-hmm.
And he said he was thinking about your
Wi-Fi struggle and I heard your wife I
Struggle and I was like that's disgusting. Yeah, he was in the shower and the shower thinking about my wife
Struggling yeah, because I know your wife intimately now from your memories and I
She's a very nice girl I know you get to the even numbered foods. How do you get to the even numbered foods? How do you get to the even numbered food? Yes, in his theory he said you go from Earth zero to food one to Earth two
Say there's no food to
Food four. I mean, I don't know. It's the numbers skip every other number. It's possible. Did I say something wrong? I don't
Know how do you get to even number food or the odd numbers? Yeah, it's a good question
How do you solve a problem like the memory grimland?
Yeah, exactly.
Let me try one more email here.
This one's a lot shorter.
Hey Arnie, I was writing the CTA red line tonight
when I saw a man who looked oddly similar to you,
not just similar actually.
I think it was you.
I'm wondering if you've considered the idea
that you exist side by side in two dimensions.
Anyway, you weren't nearly as fat as Chant led me to believe Dylan sent from my razor.
That's sort of nice.
I did when I was in Chicago, I did ride the red line in Chicago.
If you wrote this for me, it's something.
Possibly. But no, in this instance, no.
I would ride, it's a public transportation,
it's like a train, it's like a carriage.
It's like a giant carriage jam-packed with people
who take it to go to work and come back.
Is that what they call the red line?
It's because it's so jam-packed with people
that there's like a trail of blood.
Pretty much, more or less.
Yeah, sounds terrible.
A blood carriage.
A blood carriage, basically.
Is it like squeezing the sides of all the people
and it's just like coming out of their ears?
Practically.
I mean, it seems to be getting
redder and redder over the last few years.
But at least before I came here in the sun, what's that?
How do you pry out the dead bodies?
I think they just hose it down at the end of the day, basically.
So I don't know.
I mean, if there's another version of me on earth
on an even numbered earth dimension, I don't, I don't know. Maybe he should reach out to me.
Hey, if you're, if you're me listening to this, send me an email at Magic Tavern, at puppies that supplies,
and I'll get my pocket snacker to find out if it's happening.
It's possible you've been split into two annals, and that other of Monald has all your motivation and charm.
Ooh. Maybe he takes more than 20 steps a day, huh?
Well, why don't I check the pain in Omicon?
Do you still want me to record your steps?
Take steps, please.
You know, I was actually less depressed when this episode started.
Well, guess what?
You know what?
I'm just happy to be sitting around a table
with three of my favorite people.
And I'm including you, Fangie Yelli.
Yeah, thank you.
And on our views at Orbeam Back,
let's have tonight be Yell Night.
Yell Night.
Yell Night.
Yell Night. And so end is the chapter where we discover Mat Young to be the theatrical equivalent
of one of the sorcerers apprentice brooms.
Chop it down and it only comes back as something worse.
Hear that gentle whoosh?
That's the sound of one of the most potentially dramatic developments
on this show, deflating faster than a damp balloon animal sying on the Hindenburg.
Shond the King of the Badges was played by a bag of unclaimed UPS packages.
No, I'm sorry he was played by Adel Raffaier.
Fangie Yelly, the memory Gremlin was played by special guest Sarah Marr, because every now
and then, Dezi would let Lucy perform at the
tropa canna.
You can follow Sarah on Twitter at S. Maharaja.
Okay, that's clever.
Oh yes, and Yuzador, the slightly lighter blue, was played by Matt Young, with all the
satisfying dramatic heft of Kirk's instant resurrection in the final 10 minutes of Star
Trek into darkness.
Craig, you dropped the spirit stick during the team building workshop and that means you finished the credits.
Hello from the Magic Tavern was produced by Arnie Neacamp, Evan Jacober, and Rhyndi Georgi.

Thanks to the Chicago podcast co-op and big thanks to Ear Wolf.
Now before we go, I feel like it's time for another episode of Craigcast!
Welcome back to Craigcast, ladies and gentlemen.
We got a great show for you tonight.
My guest is Robot Arnie.
Robot Arnie, how you doing?
I'm not a robot.
You're a robot.
Yeah, I'm a robot.
That's why I've got all these memories
of my family and my childhood.
What do you think they were implanted
by some mad man in a satellite?
That's ridiculous.
Anyway, Robot Arnie, it says here
you got something to plug, is that right?
Well, thank you for asking Craig.
I actually do have some stuff to plug.
Besides the fact that Hello from the Magic Tavern
is doing our live show, it's now here this festival
in Anaheim, literally this coming up weekend.
There might still be time to get tickets for our Saturday Night Show if you go to nowherethisfest.com.
But you have more time to get tickets for our live show in Chicago, November 19th, as part
of the Chicago Podcast Festival.
It is going to be an amazing huge, huge show.
Our guest is Scott Adzit, who, at the very least,
you probably know from his work on the show, 30 Rock,
but he is also an amazing, hilarious improviser.
I do not know why he agreed to do a live Hello
from the Magic Tavern show, but his mistake
is everyone else's gain.
Gain!
You're not gonna wanna miss this,
and you can get more information and tickets.
Don't forget to get tickets at ChicagoPodcastFestival.org.
The whole festival is gonna be awesome,
but you especially are gonna want to come and see this show.
Besides Scott Adze,
we're also working on other cool surprises for that show.
So get a ticket now before you have to get tickets
like way in the back and it'll still be good.
You want to get closer to the front.
Funny stuff, funny side, anything else?
Well, you can also get Magic Cavanty shirts.
If you go to earwolf.com and go to the store,
you can get the chunts up with that shirt.
You can get the, I don't wanna talk about earth stuff shirt.
All right, that's enough.
That's all the time we've got this week for Craig Gast.
[♪ OUTRO MUSIC PLAYING [♪
All right, Craig, time to go flood shadow Twitter
with misleading theories as to how or why
Usador came back.
Here's mine, Matt owns the recording equipment.
Yo Knight!
Does it better than anyone else?
It's true.
Nobody does it better.
Nobody. Nobody does it better. Nobody.
Nobody.
Nobody does it better.
Nobody.
Can I steal that memory from you?
Please take us, God.
