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.
The following podcast is...real.
It's really happening.
Go ahead and take it seriously.
Whoa, wait, are you sure you want to say that?
Well think about it, Craig.
We're not getting a signal from other places.
Why not check it on the wife, living in where was it again?
Swamp Onion Town?
No wait, Chicago.
Yep, but aren't we worried about Hogsface and the Dark Lord?
Look, I can't take all of that on right now, but people have their commute, or 40 minute
period of staring towards the horizon wondering what went wrong to get through, and dammit
we're going to distract them.
So people of Earth enjoy this very real, very Earth-specific show. Hello from Chicago.
I'm Sarah Mauer coming to you live from the Wicked Nitter Radio Hour and Chicago Radio Network.
If you've never tuned in before, this is a live stream that my friend Shirley runs,
and she gave me an hour because I need to solve some mysteries.
About two months ago, I lost a week of time.
I don't know what happened.
It's a total memory loss. I'm not sure if I was abducted by aliens or what, but I do know that whatever happened, I'm now somehow an expert sword fighter.
So that's clue. I'm looking for help and I instilled one of my greatest buddies to come and help me.
And that is my man, Adel Rufai.
Adel, welcome to the Wicked Knitter radio hour.
Greetings, thanks for having me.
It's a pleasure to be on.
Thank you.
I feel like I would be remiss if I didn't ask you what your favorite stitches?
My favorite stitch is probably, I think, classic like cross stitch.
A cross stitch? Okay, so you're not much of a kn think classic like cross stitch. A cross stitch.
Okay, so you're not much of a knitter.
Is cross stitch not a knitting stitch?
No, cross stitch is cross stitch.
Okay, if I'm being honest, I've never knitted.
Cool.
Cool, cool.
There's only two types of stitches and I only know how to do one.
So if anyone knows how to do the one that looks like these, give us a call.
Okay. the one that looks like these give us a call. Okay, so Adel, why don't you give the listeners a little
view onto what happened that week that I was quote unquote gone from your perspective. Like basically,
I just want someone to confirm, like you never saw me, right? No, I didn't. And we usually, I mean,
we usually meet up maybe two times a week for lunch and everything. So I didn't see it all. You didn't and we usually I mean we usually meet up maybe two times a week for lunch and everything so I didn't see it all
You didn't you didn't answer your text you didn't answer your emails. Here's the thing you saw Arnie, right my husband
Oh, that's right. Yeah, I did see Arnie
That's so weird. I haven't seen him for two years. You know, it's funny. Oh my god. You're right
He did didn't he'd like disappear. I know you know what I went to your home. I knocked on the door looking for you
He answered the door and seemed thrilled to see me and I I said, is Sarah here? And he said, no.
And I just said, well, and walked away. I've oh my gosh. I totally forgot. He's been missing for two
years. You know what? That's okay. I kind of, you know, I scooted along the days. Yeah. But I
really, I mean, I like him what we used to do in Proff together. You know, we did a real
this tonight. We did. Yeah, yeah. We did that for several years and then at some point he kind of stopped doing it and then I guess yeah
I just stopped seeing him so when he's disappeared for two years
I just you know you just accept the new normal, you know totally new norm, but what happened that week?
Well, what did I do? I'm well as you know I may be kind of a big
Vocal actor in the city known for my
different, you know, accents and voices that I can put on. So I know the Wicked knitting
circle is a place of honesty. You have one great cockney accent, and that's it.
Do I? There it is. There is my man. And in that, in that wake, I I did I did some vocal hosting for this game called guest binage
Which is a Jackbox game went very well. They've read what's Jackbox? Jackbox is a who do I know there?
I know someone there, but it's like a it's like a game. It's like they do video games that
Who deal did didn't is didn't a name didn Dill in? Oh, Ryan to Georgie.
Ryan to Georgie.
I love that guy.
I love that guy.
But, yeah, I did that.
Also, I do a podcast with my sister called Siblings Pecky Lair, and that got option
for a movie.
So, I just kind of unemployed, you know, just kind of raking in the money.
Raking in the job.
All right.
So, we should let everyone know that the phone lines are open
We are trying to solve the mystery of what happened the week that I was gone. Did you see me on the street?
Did you see me eating a girl cheese? Did you see me on the bus eating a girl cheese?
Nits, stitches and pearls, oh, oh my gosh. Did you hear that?
Okay, okay, okay. Did you say Neil Perth stitches? He said knit stitches and purl stitches.
Those are the two stitches.
I think you referenced rush drum or Neil Perth.
Did he?
Maybe.
Okay, here's the thing.
You heard that, right?
I heard something.
That voice has been following me around
ever since I lost that week.
I mean, it's either a wizard or Santa.
I don't know which one.
How was it to talk to you?
On what site you've gone made?
Ah, there it is!
Love it!
Seriously, it talks to me.
It's, we have great chats,
and then sometimes he just comes in and out,
and he's like, what do you just said,
like what knitter-curl?
Oh my God, you're being serious.
He says the way.
Yes.
Are you able to communicate with him?
Does he respond to you?
Yes, sometimes he's a little more lucid than other times and sometimes he's real jake
Amarlie about it and clanking chains and all that.
Jesus Christ, Sarah, oh my, we need to get you to a doctor or something.
Do you have a concussion?
Are you okay?
If I'm concussed, how did you also hear it?
Yeah, that's right.
I didn't think about that.
Maybe you both have a concussion.
Maybe earlier when I dropped my glasses,
then we both reached for them.
Yeah.
And we knocked heads.
Maybe we both concussed ourselves.
What if that was just one of those cartoon birds?
Oh boy, I thought I thought I put it at.
See, I just say, oh there, there you go.
That's good.
You should put that on your resume.
All right, so we are taking calls, taking calls.
We should probably just sit here quietly and wait, huh? Oh yes, no wait, that's a call.
Hello, caller, this is Sarah Marron,
Wicked Nitter Radio Hour with Adel Rify.
Alright, yeah, I'm just calling in to say that I did not see you that week.
Oh, thank you, and who do we have the pleasure of speaking with?

Heck!
My name is Greg.
Greg, Greg, where are you calling from?
I'm calling from Chicago.
Oh, lovely, lovely.
Greg, so how do you know me?

Which is how I know I didn't see you that week.
Oh.
I was listening for some knitting stuff and you said you wanted people to call it and say
whether they...
Well, well, well, well, Greg, you knit you knit I knit what's your favorite type of stitch backwards
backwards, you know what this is a place of no judgment cool. I
Know a lot about knitting all right. I've invented some new
Knitting maneuvers. I'm the future of knitting. Can we hear some of it? Yeah, sure
up up I'm the future of knitting. Can we hear some of them? Yeah. Sure. Up.
Up.
Classic movie Pixar, Old Man meets a young kid.
They set off for adventure.
I've also invented the sashay knit.
What is that like?
It's like you do it while dancing sideways.
So you just knit while dancing sideways?
Yeah, you do a regular knit,
but you're sashaying while you're doing it.
How do you feel good about yourself?
Greg, remember the movie sideways?
I'm not gonna drink any fucking Merlot.
What was that with this guy?
He just loves her.
He just loves her.
He just loves talking about movies.
Yeah.
But do you remember that movie?

Hey.
Yeah.
We need you to chill out and focus a little bit.
Okay. If you didn't see me, where were you that week?
Well, I was, I was, I was, I was just spending some time trying to get my shit together.

Couldn't find me.

Oh, a weird show.
We both remember that thing yourself.

Are you sure you guys don't know each other?
This seems to be a lot of real old animosity between you two.
I don't think so.

It's...
Dub-unny.
I mean, Dub-unny, is that Italian?

So, you know, that's why I'm aware.
I'm familiar with the show Greg the bunny.
So when you were, when that show was on the air,
people were probably like, Greg the bunny.
Are you Greg the bunny?
Yeah, yeah.
And that's why honestly, even to this day,
I mostly avoid saying my last name.
I feel like I want to disappear for another week.
No, don't say that.
Sarah, don't say that.
Maybe I should change my first name.
Oh my god.
Okay, Greg, we gotta go.
Bye.
What a weird.
Oh, weird dude. Well, gotta go. Bye What a weird
Well, I think we should give a little bit of time to talking about witches, right? Yeah, oh absolutely. Yeah, I mean it is wicking knitting have your meta-witch?

They weren't like full on but like if someone tells me they're a witch like I believe them what constitutes a full-on witch
I don't know. That's a good question. Oh, that sounds like it. This sounds like a some sort of Indian food
philon witch. A philon witch. Oh, that sounds delicious. Maybe Middle Eastern? Yeah. Philon witch.
Philon witch. Oh, I did go to an eagle's concert once. I don't know if that counts. Oh, we have a call here on the line.
Oh, great a caller. Welcome to the Wicken Nitter Radio Hour. You're a nice add-ons, yeah. Hi, my name is Barbara Glasshouse,
and I am very upset that no one has even mentioned
the slipknot.
I realize that it's not the most popular knot,
but it's a standard knot, it's a workhorse of knots.
So I'm calling your nodding podcast streaming thing
to tell you the like, I don't know what a podcast is. Yeah, I don't know. I'm calling your streaming show to tell you the like I don't know what a podcast is. Yeah, I'm calling your streaming show to tell you that like slipknotts are getting overlooked. Talk about slipknotts.

So you shouldn't throw stone at me buddy
Don't think I you're not feeling it didn't think I heard that every day on the playground You don't think I heard that every single day of my fucking life. Oh
Hey, Barbara, have you ever met a witch? I have met a witch for language. I have met a I'm getting so hungry
I have met a full on which I was at a Qdoba
getting so hungry. I have met a felon which I was at a Qdoba and she was in line behind me and she was like I am definitely a witch and she had the pointy hat
and everything and it was adorable. Wait, it's called Qdoba? I thought it was Kdoba
like what house? I don't know I've never heard anyone say it out loud and it looks like just like someone like shout out
some consonants, which why, why just name it food house?
Like name it something that I can understand.
Why?
Interesting that you wanted to be named food house
when your last name is Glass House.
I feel like you're trying to pin me in.
Call a Walmart?
Really?
Oh, because it's on this house.
Call a Walmart a storehouse.
Call a 7-Elevena gas house.

Hey, I didn't ask to become the name person.
I just called to ask about slipknotts.
You didn't really call it ask about it so much as tell us about it.
Also, it's not plural. The band is called slipknot. To say slipknotts suggest that there's
two parallel bands, both called slipknot, who are the other slipknotts.
You never saw the other slipknot.
Uh, Barbara, unless there's alternate dimensions around us, there's only one slipknot.
The other slipknot was the better slipknot.
Okay, fine. You know what? We're gonna let you go think about this.
What? Are you gonna pull off a little bit?
Guys are real slap-nuts.
Alright. She's low-eat.

You know through the radio waves from you guys because I can tell you have a pretty healthy relationship
That's the song that was playing when she thought of me and I sprouted from her back. What?
I'm sprouting her back. What?
I'm sprouting husbands back.
Yeah.
I think there's a language barrier here. I've worked with a lot of refugees in my line of Barbara.
Barbara, go home.
Refugees.
Wyclef's John.
I'll beg on to November.
Wait a minute.
Oh my gosh. Wait a minute. You guys seem weird. Thank you. Have you seen me? I'm not sure if I can't do that. White girl around here that knows it down We may have seen you I think you saw me
Possibly were you carrying a sensible purse that matches most outfits?
Yeah, something in a muted tone that goes with everything. Yes, Puffy coat you got it
Were you holding a Starbucks?
I mean if it was anytime between 8 30 and 11 a.m. Yes, it tends to you. Maybe at some point said, I can't even.
Oh, you don't know white girls.
No, I know white girls.
Marlon Wayne's and Sean Wayne's are two guys who put on
white face.
And I can't keep it.
Barbara, go.
Barbara, hang up.
Barbara, get the fuck off phone.
You are fucking with my last nerve.
Okay, we need to talk to these folks.
I don't really get serious about this because we have a mystery to solve. Let me tell you the mystery that I have and I want to see if
you two can help me. Would you mind helping me? Sure. Okay, about. Well screw Octavia Spencer,
I guess these guys are the help. Do you have something to say to any word that is thrown out?
Yeah, but I also censor myself. I mean, like a few minutes ago, this guy said there are a lot of trees and Connecticut. I wanted to say like, what is that? The new John
Irving book, but I didn't. So I do censor myself. I lost a week in my life. And it was just
a couple weeks back. My life. You got it. I don't know what happened. I've got some guy who's
either Santa or Wizard coming to me, talking to me. Also, my husband has been gone for two years,
but that's kind of on the back burner. I want to know. I, my husband has been gone for two years, but that's kind of on the back burner.
I wanna know what happened.
I forgot her husband got her two years.
He's been gone for two years.
I need to right hold on, I'm gonna get a bit of paper
once I get him to.
I'm sorry.
I should write it down.
But here's the thing, I don't know where I went
and I don't know how I got back
and I don't know what happened.
Have you ever heard of something like this happening?
It happens a lot back when we're from.
Okay, it is not Connecticut.
I'm going to put you guys on the spot.
I don't think you're from Connecticut.
No, we're, we're, we're, we're from Connecticut.
We're very, yes.
We like, many things from Connecticut like commuting into New York City.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
You guys, this knitting circle is for honesty.
And you can be honest here.
Where are y'all from?
We are goblins.
What?
What?
What?
You're gobbling up our time on the show.
You are fucking with me right now.
We are goblins from another land.
We came here, we bought cell phones.
We're looking for apartments. Another land we came here we bought cell phones
We're looking for apartments
Chicago rent is is reasonable, but
Not compared to what we're used to check out bronzeville also you said you came here you bought cell phones I feel like there's a pretty big chasm of time that you're
Leaping over okay, so here's the thing. What did you guys eat?
What was the first thing you ate? A baby. Oh, no, come on. I know, too fatty. I told him.
But it is so chunky. It was the cheeks. So you guys seem like nice baby. Yes.
Hurry down the chimney tonight. Don't worry, guys. I'm going to murder him soon. Listen.
You guys don't know that it's not cool to eat babies here.
So I'm just gonna give you a hot tip, okay?
Cause I like you, I want you guys to succeed.
Aw, thank you.
Thanks, well we ate that baby to feed our babies.
All right, well at least that's something.
Is it wanted to eat a baby if you're sharing it?
I feel like that's, I'm sorry, I'm still on the long run.
Oh, is that Barbara? No, is'm sorry, I'm still on the line. Mother fuck. Is that Barbara?
No, is that, who is this?
Is that Greg?
Greg.
Hey, Greg, what's up, dude?
Um, that's just gross, I'm sorry.
Okay, well, I love, I really love talking to you guys,
but we do have a mystery to solve. Pro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-ro history now school I'm still on the line. Oh
I actually am also a psychiatrist. Oh, I think I can like clinically diagnose your co-host. Yeah, man go for it as hilarious
I think he has pop culture Tourette's oh
Shit, yeah, he has no control over these sort of ticks, but they manifest themselves. No control over ticks. Oh no. They pop, they manifest themselves.
Get off me, lime disease, lime disease.
Who is that?
That wouldn't be no sense.
I'm selling the lime. Who is that?
We have watched a lot of TV and movies in the time that we have been here, and I recognize
most of your references.
Oh no, I have Tourette. I must be in New York at Radio City Music Hall. Seeing a line of women kick, it's the Tourette's.
I think sort of the more anxiety has the more he, uh, the more his path culture references
don't really make sense exactly.
You know what? That means a lot of sense because I feel like my buddy Adel, like he feels
my anxiety. I think it's palpable because I really want to get to the bottom of this.
Emperor palpable. See? That was.
He's just trying to help his friends air out.
You probably have extra anxiety because you've got too much
to much head.
You are a fucking downspirer.
I will set fire to that fucking line you're on.
I just think that he probably has an anxiety about things in his life.
And so he has to escape into some pop culture references.
But I'm just saying that all of life
doesn't have to be pop culture.
Take that from Dr. Greg DeBunny.
Hey, Greg DeBunny, I was really happy you were gone,
but that helped, that really helped.
We're gonna hang up on you now, okay,
but you have a good one.
I'm not gonna hang up just in case.
I'm not leaving till we get to the bottom of this.
I'm never gonna hang it up, not the way I hang it up for you.
I thought you were gonna go,
never gonna hang you up.
No, I'm gonna,
ha, ha, ha, ha.
Now I'm upset with myself.
I'm sorry, you take a moment.
Hey, Sarah.
Yep.
Can I ask you something?
Yes, sure.
I just noticed I have a piece of paper in front of me
and a pen and I wrote down missing
for two years AR.
What was I writing?
AR, I'll refine.
Missing for two years.
R, R, I'm hiring.
What was I writing?
Oh, did you miss it?
I didn't find that.
What's good missing for two years?
That's what's, yes, that's it.
Where are you?
Two years ago I was a pirate for Halloween and I lost that outfit.
That's what it is.
That's been missing for two years.
Well, you better finish that sentence. Okay. It's close.

That's true.
And that's a huge help.
And we also have a note now to find your pirate costume. Oh, that's right
I lost my pirate costume so and I'm sure there are other assholes on the line Barbara
Barbara if you're there Barbara, we're hanging up now I
Blue Joe Pescian College
Fuck you, Barbara Well, that was fun, right?
Like the occasional Voyager episode where we spend some time back on Earth with Lieutenant
Barclay.
All the characters you just enjoyed were played by residents of your own planet, the only
one there is.
Sarah Mahir was played by herself.
Follow her on Twitter at S. Mahiraja.
Adel Rafa was played by Adel Rafa, Chicago voiceover artist.
If air quotes were high-pitched shrieks, you'd be clutching your face and agony.
Isn't it great to hear him out of character?
Fun to get a peek behind the carefully constructed veneer.
Barbara Glass House was played by Matt Young, who portrays women only as shrill relentless
crones.
I wonder if that details given some ink in his Tinder profile.
Into and nerf the displaced goblins from a fantastical world that's not in peril, were
Marla Caceres and Eddie Pina, you can see them carrying Adel as regular performers
with world news tonight at Chicago's Iotheater.
Well, see you next week, so there's gonna be a show next week.
Well, of course, there'll be a show, just because I want to keep world separate doesn't
mean I want any of them engulfed in evil.
Look if Hog's face is still down, we can probably grab a signal from that high-concept critical-darling cowboy world. That's it was
good for 40 or so minutes. Okay, hello from The Magic Tavern was produced by Arnie Meekamp,
Evan Jacober, and Rhyndi Georgie. This one edited by Rhyndi Georgie. Using Bianny Poland,
logo by Aller LeBon, additional audio effects by Jason Knox, production assistance by Garrett Schultz.
Visit us at alo from themagictavern.com or on Facebook or Twitter.
Thanks for the Chicago podcast, go up, and thanks to Ear Wolf.
Extra special thanks this week to Andy Poland for the new theme song, because that was clearly
a theme song for a fake show that doesn't exist no matter what.
Anyone else says, and if you're missing the regular Magic Tavern crew this week, all three of them played gauntlet, the old video game,
for ign.com.
If you go to IGN's website,
you can see hello from the Magic Tavern plays gauntlet.
Just do a Google search for that.
It'll probably come up right away.
Thanks to the folks from IGN for that.
It was very fun to do.
And I think it proves that the show's not real
and nothing is going wrong at all.
Now might also be a good time to check out the spin-off series offices and bosses on Howl.
Okay, back to scanning the continuum.
That in my banana bridge should be ready to come out of the fire hutch.
