If you've never listened to the podcast before,

this is what's going on. Many, many months ago, I fell through a dimensional portal behind a burger king into the fantastical land of fune. Luckily, I'm still getting a slight Wi-Fi signal from the burger king, and I use that to upload a podcast. I record usually every week in the Vermilion Minotaur, which is a tavern in the town of Hogg's face in the land of Foon,

but this week to celebrate my buddy Chuchu's and you see his restaurant, Chuchu's Chao, I am recording from Chuchu's Chao. Yeah, baby. Did that make any sense? Yeah, I did. As much as you can make sense. Yeah, absolutely. So, Chao, why don't I did as much as you can make sense. Yeah, absolutely

So, John why don't you go ahead and introduce yourself. I am chun Good work Fantastic and of course Table for us. Where are table for us? I need apps What's going on here?

Shunt, the restaurant. You guys open. Yeah, thank you for coming. I mean, I have to say it really means the world to me that you're here. Yeah, buddy. You know, I didn't know if you've ever come. So I think I just want you to have the best time. So we'll sit here at the chef's table and anything you want is on me.

Wow! What is the first thing? Is there an appetizer I should have? Should we work our way through the meal during the podcast? There is a prefix menu. That means it's set. It's like a set menu. It must be a food thing.

It must be just a food thing. If you don't know a prefix, it must be a food thing. There must be a just a food thing. If you don't know how to prefix it, you must be a food thing. So it starts with like I said, our special two is deep fried fox face. So that's what you you're making a face. I like the first two words. Oh, it's delicious. Oh, you skin the face of a fox and you slowly lower the space meat into a boiling hot pool of oil. Until it just is crispy and delicious. Love that chef. It's all wonderful.

Sump. I'm gonna warn listeners, I'm just guessing this episode is going to be Used or chef voice heavy, so if you're not a fan you probably just turn it off right now So we have that and then we also have a horse tail fritters I mean the rest is kind of up to the chef. We have a new chef. We have a such chef So he kind of dictates what great day the best ingredients are and what we can get from the you know it sounds like adventurous fair I am here to support you guys. I'm excited to eat yeah all that stuff To start do you want a glass of we have sparkling out here sparkling out here is sure I get sounds odd, but um It's just kind of like a palette cleanser. It's just like a effort to you sure absolutely. Yeah

Can I start you with some appetizers and you'd like to join my quest to defeat the dark lord No, this is yes for his evil and everywhere in this haunted fog He the plague us all but enjoy your meal We lose a lot of customers Heed up, play us all, but enjoy your meal. We lose a lot of customers. Look, I know that I've been accused of not being a supportive of you guys as I could be in the past. And that's why I'm here to eat some deep fried fox face. Best friends.

Yay, best friends. Hey, you know what, I'm really interested in meeting your chef. Oh, here he comes. He's, thank you so much Leonard for the deep fried fox face. This is Leonard Cronkite. He's our Hedgef. Oh Leonard Cronkite. Good morrow. Arnie is it? It's Arnie. Oh if you want to call you Arby just let me. Arby yeah yeah. Yes the infinite is an old honor to be given a special name by a chef. Oh really?

Yes, so. And you are being the name of the man. Yeah, Arby Sun's fitting. I can already hear the emails coming in. People calling me Arby. E-Mails. But yeah, we don't even talk about Earth stuff. And the Leonard, it's a magical form of mail,

much as a bird would carry a message to you through these through these wires and and and magical energies Messages are transported on Arnold's magical world Great Scott we have been playing a game set in this world and it is quite fantastical Officers and bosses Officers and bosses, hey, but you know what guys? This is this is the Chuchu's channel episode. I'm really excited to learn more about this restaurant you guys are opening.

And Leonard, I've heard that you're a half, you're a half giant? Yes. So, the way it works is I don't know. The little half of my body is a giant. As you can see. Oh, sure, yeah, wow. My legs are quite large. And the upper half is, well, I'll just say it's a human.

Yeah, it's only gone food pear shape. Yes, oh, yes. That is right, pear shape. Yes. And you know, it offered me quite some goodness as a chef, you know, they are long hours. Sure. But, you know, with my giant legs that are also immortal, as a giant, as a year-old. Oh, immortal, wow.

Yeah, long after her top half is dead, those legs will be running out. Oh, no. They're being just cavorting about looking for a restaurant in which to cook. Sure. Do you cook much with your legs? I will. I try to keep them planted firmly on the ground. Sure. As to give my upper parts more dexterity. Sure.

But you know I have been known to take a little more growl here in there. Yeah, I'm talking. Get to the point. Crazy. Yeah, baby. Yeah. Yes.

A pot. Oh boy. It also helps to have a half-giant in a kitchen just so there's not going to be any unruly customers, you know? Right. If people don't like what they're eating, and they're like, I need to see the chef once a half-giant comes out. They're not going to complain. Yeah, they're like half-terrified. Yeah're eating and they're like, I need to see the chef once a half giant comes out, they're not gonna let you know.

Yeah, they're like half terrified. Yeah, exactly. They're like, yeah. Yeah, yeah. You know, if I were a half giant, if my legs were giant and the top of me wasn't, I would always pull the maneuver of always be sitting down

when someone threatens me and then stand up. My God, do you know I've never thought of that? Yeah. That is underfunded, it's a wonderful idea. my god do you know I've never thought of that yeah that is under for that's a wonderful idea so so go dig in dig in okay want you eat the the deep fried fox face so Leonard can see your face will you enjoy it yeah yeah everyone is staring at my my face very intently let's just keep the conversation I mean I'll I'll pick at had no one's going to say it would.

Okay. Okay. There you go. Yep. Yep. You're gonna have to chew for a good 15 to 30 minutes. Okay. It's a little, yeah.

Alright. What do you think? What do you think? It's, oh boy, yeah. I'm surprised that there's actual, there's like under the deep frying, there's fur. There's still. Uh huh. Yeah. Why, it's a fox haze.

Did you not understand that part? Yeah, no, I guess I should have not, I guess I should have not made the mistake of thinking it wasn't literal. Um, but it's good. Oh, it's real good. Where are those? I could really use those allotiers to wash it down. Oh, here you go.

I'm just putting a fruit of that. And Leonard, what else do we have? The horse tail fritters, the fox face. Was there anything else from the market that's going to go on the pre-fax menu? Yes, well, usually I specialize in the face really of anything. So any type of face? The face heavy menu.

Yes, definitely face heavy. So we definitely have the fox face and then we also have the sheep's face. And of course, the pig's face would show, which is a delicacy. So... And you really should watch Win Leonard's in the kitchen

and he's taking the face off, like that whole face off procedure is just... Oh, I'm a big fan of face off. Like, it holds up. Yeah, it holds up. Is it the... Yeah, the procedure... The procedure... It holds up.

It's sort of... I'm guessing the procedure is stupid, but also, like, in a great way. Yeah, because at first you're like, that's... Come on. And then you're like, No, it's working.

Like, it kind of works. Yeah. So Leonard, what made you decide to become a chef? Well, I think it's interesting. It's actually a legacy in... A legacy. Yes, in the human part of my family. Oh, you know, well, it was my duty to carry it on. Even when we escaped the dreaded earth place for What? Yes, my family and I, we fled. fled, who came to form, and we fell behind a door, some sort of sandwich shop.

And we came here and my mother was the human hour. She said, Leonard, this is your destiny. You must carry it on, and I did. Well, your human ancestors come from Earth and not from food. It is true, yes, and they are also from Earth, but it was a long time ago. Holy crap, well maybe you can answer, what's a Houdini? Do you know? Because Arnie didn't seem to know. It's just not as interesting as you think it's gonna be is it some kind of dish

We think it's a person named Peter Houdini. Oh Yeah, that sounds right. Do you remember anything about your life as a human on earth? Unfortunately, I don't we left when I was just a few months old in human time and So I don't remember I remember a lot of bright lights and that's about it. So let me understand this. You were born upon Earth, correct? Yes. Yet you are half giant. So the giants also at some point were on Earth.

Well, I mean, there was a giant, a famous giant on Earth named Andre. Oh, yes. And he was a giant, a famous giant on Earth named Andre. Oh, yes. And he was a fighter. Yes. And sadly not immortal. Well, not a very good story. Yeah, but is there any chance, is your father Andre the giant? Well, I really can't believe you're bringing in this sub-budget.

It is time that I come to terms with it. Yes, yes, that was my father and He is now living in food and he is mortals now that he is back in his original place Andre the giant lives in food now Yes, oh boy that is going to give me a whipping for this one. Is he that big cloaked guy that just yells obey? At everyone for this one. Is he that big cloaked guy that just yells Obey at everyone? Yes, I believe that's him. I believe you're right. That is. That guy is weird as hell. He is. Look at this Leonard's father. I'll be like walking a night and he'll be like,

Oh, Bay and I'm like, get the fuck off my case, man. Yeah. Do you ever, does he ever come up to you and say, anybody want a peanut? No. No. No. Alright. Fair enough. Should he? Now, Leonard, I am very curious. What is it exactly then that makes you believe your bottom half is immortal? Well, I am just kind of deduced because the bottom half of me is so large that I say, well, that half must be a giant part Yes, and the legs my legs look Beautiful and sinew here. He's your him. He's that God I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I thought I thought you wouldn't feel it I what's the difference?

You know, I can still feel pain. I'm so psychically. I thought you would, I was like, let's test him. We're very sorry. I'm so sorry. I thought you just wanted to cut up this fox face. Yeah, well, you shouldn't lead a knife, it should be a soap tender.

Just falls apart. I'm so sorry. He's got a very small hands and mouth though, so you know sometimes it's hard to Yeah, it takes me 15 to 30 minutes to two exactly What was that just make it fun? How dare you I don't know these out here is they're going to my head I

Think you're watching For sure yeah, he's been working three days straight He hasn't slept, Uh-huh. And I think he just had a stroke, his face just went slack. Um, so let's give him a moment to cool down. Could you just put that rag under the water and put it back up? Yeah. What? Hey, wow! You just snapped back up.

Hi, I'm a wizard. Right. You know what, maybe we should take a quick break and make sure that you the door is doing all right. All right, I'll lay down. All right. We'll be right back. Good forks of hogs face. Some of you may know me.

Does anyone really need a heart-shaped diamond and crusted turd box? I-I'm asking, where did this come into fashion? Please, good people, be sensible, and come to my shop, shop in cheer-boughts and so forth. My turd boxes are in the shape of boxes.

No. That's just, okay. Just reintegrating. Sure, sure. I'm making a point that they're large and they're, they're, they're forever. I just, as your legs are, so I understand perfectly how you've come to your decision. Thank you, UCI. I appreciate that.

So, thank you for being such a wonderful chef. Oh, I'm glad that you still brought that up, Leonard. I... I hesitate to broach this subject, but this is this podcast, so I'm gonna have to ask. So you're... you're... your leg? You've got giant legs. Yes. I assume you've also got a giant's butt.

When you get up in the morning and you pack your trouser bag for the day, how big of a suitcase do you need? May I interject for a moment before he answers? I hate that part of getting ready in the morning.

Yes, packing your trousers. Packing my trouser bag every morning. It seems like such a hassle. It seems like why don't we just have one piece of garment that it does not require you to so specifically put your balls into one thing, your shaft into another, zip the whole thing up. It's just, I don't understand it, frankly. I always have trouble folding my

penis when I what it's the worst yeah yeah do you not pack your penis I know yeah sure I do I have packed my meanest one like at a time do you I everybody else right we'll get you a trouser bag all right fair okay okay maybe that's enough dick and balls time I must have a authentic phone trouser bag Yes, of course he must be yeah, yeah, someone make one for you Sure, sure, but I'm sorry. I interrupted you you are going to tell us about the size of your penis We also know that we don't have to talk about we don't have to You know when the brought it up here comes the third course. Oh, here you go So this is this is goat because we have a lot of,

you should or sacrifice is a lot of goats. Yes. So, and he also, this has been marinating for three days. Yeah. In your own blood. In my blood? Yeah, a while ago, you used to or took a vial of your blood and he's been using that to marinate the goats.

This is a special dish we made today just for you. So you're the only one who's gonna hit that. It doesn't look like it's been cooked in any way. Not just marinated. So we're all gonna watch your face and just go ahead and take a bite. Yes, please take a bite. We just wanna make sure we're in again.

Oh, it's looking at me. Very intensely. Yeah, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh. Okay, all right. Oh, yeah, meh, meh, me you do nose what I like it? It's good.

Why this is a fucking Fuck oh, I'm gonna eat the whole thing No, I'll be it is customary to eat the entire plate when it comes to you

Or else You're being rude. I wondered what you said. And you said, or slaved over that. OK, I'm going to need a little bit of time. All right, but I'm going to work my way through. Why don't you guys tell me where some more of the dishes that, like, what's something exciting? Like, Leonard, what are you most excited about cooking here?

Oh, man, I've had some wonderful ideas and of course you see and I would pass the ideas back and forth. Yes I do. Yes, one that I am particularly looking forward to is the cram and scrap which is a new dish that I am creating. You're going to love it, yes. that I am creating. You're going to love it, aren't you? Yes, yes. Um, well, the way it works is, are you taking any animal?

Whatever animal you happen to find under the light of formal. Okay. And are you finding that animal? A gopher, a bear, a pig. It does not matter. It does not matter. I really wouldn't do anything.

And, um, shall you take that animal? So, it could only be a go for a bearer pick? No, I was just saying those are three exact answers. It could be anything. Right, right. He's explaining up. It's so you take the animal under the light of the full moon and you take a sacred dagger that was passed down from Andre, my father, and you smith the belly of the animal open and proceed to clean out the entrails and then

you just cram the cavity with as much raw meat of another animal that you can. And are you so it up in the belly and now keep in mind this is all done in the light of the full moon. So you have to do this before the sunrise. And you... Because if the sunrise is and you're still working the animal reanimates? Yes, yes. And then you have to find it full of brummy.

Forifying it really isn't. So we're so it up and then soak the animal in its own urine. Oh 24 hours 24 hours just so it really soaks up all that urine. Yes. I can tell your mouth is watering Cook it for just restyls But another thing that we've we've been kicking around we haven't we haven't quite figured this one out yet Yes, but there's so many left over chicken parts Oh, yes, yes, there's so many leftover chicken parts because you cook the feet obviously Yeah, so the rooster feet you have chicken breasts and chicken thighs

But then there are all these bones and heads and beaks and we really were thinking about putting all that stuff into a pastry And we're actually we actually wanted to slip all name for that So the chicken parts in a pastry do you get you judge one have the wonderful ideas? Oh You just caught I Was going to call it beac bread, but that is just a great bread. It's kind of iteration. It's got a little bit good I was just thinking vomit inducer It's kind of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of Like it seems like there are a lot of people here, but it also seems like the preparation is very time consuming Like how are you guys doing like time? How is I know starting a new business new restaurant is very difficult. Are you guys oh? We're in severe debt. Yeah, crippling. Oh, no. Yeah, we're not in it for the money though. We're that for the love of the game

Yeah, but no debt collector's gonna come after a wizard come on. You know, after a wizard who has a business and a haunted purple ball, are you kidding me? Yeah, best of luck trying to track us down. Yeah, the fact that you're a dime out of me. If you, instead of chickens, use crows, you could call it a croissant. Oh! Is that clever or is that?

I love that. And then we could, we could start getting crows and serving the meats instead of chicken breasts. That's lovely. That would be a cheaper as well. Yes, yes, yes. Cheap, cheaper. You have an ass-y boo!

Ghosts, is there a ghost? Am I dead here? Thank you so much, Leonard, and I'm really enjoying this goat. Oh, thank you, Abby. It was my pleasure. What's in your napkin? Uh, nothing. When you put your napkin up to your face, it looks like you, your napkin got bigger? Yeah.

Oh, okay. That's just the magical napkin I have. Oh! You have a magical napkin. I'm a magical napkin. I'll explain it to you later, you should know. I am so excited to learn of this new magical trick. As am I.

Oh, wait. Uh, uh, uh. Now, Arnold, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, little bit like trudging through a haunted bog to get some food. It's creepy. It's part of the atmosphere. People want a aesthetic, you know, they want like a certain fun aesthetic. And it's fun because we can serve regular humans, we can serve hunger ghosts because they feel right at home. Yeah, my daddy comes here all the time. Oh really, I haven't seen your dad in a while. This is your first time here. That's true. So let's come down. John, have you got any emails? You bet your ass I have. This is an email from Caitlin. Caitlin says, my fiance introduced me to the podcast.

You frequently guest co-host. It seems to me that you may be a real Don Joane. Don Joane? Oh, Don Juan. Oh, a real Don Juan of Foon. It may upset my soon to be husband, but I'm completely enamored with you. Almost as enamored as I am with statistics. Distinctly speaking, how often do women or men

leave their partners for a night with you? I have no intentions of acting on these impulses as I am 100% committed to my fiance, James, and I know what I feel for you is just a fleeting crush. That is quite a compliment. Some look James. I've never known as they were told me that they like me almost as much as they like statistics. Yeah, that's a weird. I wish you all the best and James and I shall toast to your health at our wedding.

Wow! That's pretty nice. I don't know if I am a done Joane. Statistically speaking, I guess I don't know, I've been a badger for a while so it's not like I'm in you know. Yeah, you're really pretty you're pretty steady Guy, yeah as long as I've known you I'm all about the romance baby For the most for the most I got to even hear from a William Kinkle a postdoctoral researcher at the Kinsey Institute Hi Arnie. I'm a biologist here on earth and I'm very curious about chance mating habits At least for earth mammals about about 3-5% of species are monogamous, and then there's actually a notation here. DJ Kleinman's monogamy and animals, quarterly review of biology in 1977.

I worry that if Chun ever slept with one of these creatures, he would pair bond and get stuck as that species. Is that something you ever worry about? No. Why is everyone seems real invested in my sex life? It's true. Mind you'll be is. Well anyway, he says, so in Chun's best interest,

he should try and stay away from these animals because you would pair bond and be stuck as that animal forever. Oh good, that's sad. Elephant shrews, old world beavers, prairie voles, common marmosets, but it doesn't say anything about uncommon marmosets. Do you know how rude that is to call a marmoset common? That's true, you're just a common marmoset.

Gray wolves and night monkeys. Ooh. What about all the other colors of wolves? I guess they're fine. Alright, so you can have sex with blue wolves, green wolves, red wolves, yellow wolves, and all of the other colors that aren't great. What's the sexiest color of wolf? To me, there's something about a red wolf that really sets the blood of boiling.

Sure. I don't know, I'm curious. I feel like you would like old world beavers. Why would I like that? I don't know. I got another email here? I don't know. I got another email here. I had other emails. Oh, okay, let's hear something more of yours.

This is from Christopher, thank you, Ham. Christopher simply writes, Netflix and chill. Question mark. I don't know how to answer that. Yeah, I want to talk about this stuff. Netflix and chill. That's the entirety of talk about this stuff. Netflix and chill. That's the entirety of the message.

Yeah. Netflix and chill. Yeah, I don't know what to say. Aren't any help? No, great. I got an email in here from CJ Lewis who says, just so you know, I love all the earth references. Keep doing them.

Don't let chunt be so mean to you, by the way. Be nice chunt. Oh, be nice, Chotul. And although you by the way be nice chunt. Oh Chotulah And although you've been really you've been a wonderful host actually we've I feel like we've been getting getting along a lot better recently Yeah, we've been talked about getting tattoos. Yeah, I don't know what they would say You get my name and I'll get my name. Oh I think that's a loose for both of us I have another email here. It says hey Arnold I think that's a loose for both of us.

I have another email here that says, hey Arnold, it's Arnie, thank you. The show is great. Does Yucidor have a trolling motor for sale? Netflix and show? I don't know. I mean, I don't because I don't know what that is. Yeah, it also says, are you coming to Findley

for Thanksgiving, Matt Cordonia? Hey, this is my sister's husband. Send us an email. Oh, and Finland, we call that a brother-in-law. What did I call him? Sister's husband? He's just a husband. Oh, sure, yeah.

Seems like a long walk for when there's a short bridge. Is there any way he would be able to contact Sam? Well, that's a thing. So, man, if you're out there, please contact my wife and let her know that I'm trapped in an alternate reality, and I did not run away, and I'm really having difficulty getting in touch with her. Now, she must, Sarah, must not have contacted any of your family to let them know that she hasn't seen you in eight months.

Uh, yeah. That does not seem very strong. Also, what is Thanksgiving? Oh, boy. Thanksgiving is a holiday on my part of Earth, where they, uh, just where you eat with your family. It's really nice. It's only celebrated on your part of Earth. Well, it's not celebrated in every province, every country in my world. So the other countries don't want to give things?

I'm sure they have Thanksgiving-type traditions where they gather together and they give things, so they try to be thankful for things. So the emails actually making me realize, this was sent a little while ago, that I actually missed Thanksgiving, so I did not get to see my family. We'll give thanks on Thanksgiving. Huh. You haven't eaten all of your goat. Yeah, it's give thanks for the wonderful meal that let us prepare for you today. Yeah, I'll come back to check up on you and see how you're doing.

By the way, I have a gigantic penis. Oh. Yes, I just wanted to have a little bit of it. I mean, I think we all assumed, but yeah. Thank you for clarifying. Oh, well, come on, I don't want to leave it hanging out there. You did not start to speak. Oh, boom, baby!

Oh, it's nice! It's nice, it's nice dinner. Yes. Hey again, everything you heard just then was not real. I've been told to emphasize that. I do want to say again that my own predicament being trapped on this space station taken care of this creature thing that appears to be human, but on second look. Anyway, that is real.

It's a real situation and any help you guys could possibly offer if anyone listening would be great. I actually did get one email here from Evan Price, who says, so Craig, from what I can guess about the spaceship that you're in, it's powered by one or more higher dimensional objects And it goes on about a lot that I couldn't really Understand but therefore in order to send a reverse projection and cast your conscious shadow back into your world

You will require the use of some sort of higher dimensional objects fourth dimensional objects and then he talks about Klein bottle and a 40-hype acupotent Mobius strip Evan I've looked all around the ship and I did find one room full of things with a lot of non-uclidean angles that I stared at for a long time until I passed out and I woke up in the taupe has room, which is not a place I want to go again.

So I don't think that's going to be the solution, but if anybody has anything else I can try, really would appreciate it. Until then, as I said, the whole podcast thing is not real. think that's going to be the solution, but if anybody has anything else I can try, really would appreciate it.
