episode 104: #GreatSatansBoletes

YOU have a dirty mind. “Satan’s Boletes” doesn’t mean *THAT*. Although it does translate to “Great Satan’s Fun Guys,” so maybe it’s still worth a giggle, as Mrs S says.

Welcome to episode 104. Please put your tray tables and seat backs in the upright, we’re-all-going-to-die position, because, well, it’s Oz 9, and as usual, everything is trying to kill you.

Let’s just say our sound designer, dialogue editor, and voice actors pulled out ALL the stops on this one, so maybe dust off the old earbuds for a really good listen. I’d say it’s “immersive,” but y’all, you do NOT want to get immersed in this mess, so immerse-adjacent is probably best. Like wading.

episode 103: A hungry long-tailed weasel

Oz 9 recently turned six, and while most of the crew asked for a quick and painless death for their birthday wish, we’re still here. (If you want to give us a prezzie, we do have a Patreon, just sayin’…..)

Anyway, there are fun things that happen in this episode, which is odd, so you probably don’t want to miss it. Bring confetti. But don’t throw it because it REALLY makes Joe nuts.

episode 101: “Crap” indeed. Meanwhile…

WHAT ARE YOU DOING? Do you have ANY IDEA the literally dozens of hours you’ve wasted with this bunch of smooth-shelled walnuts? (and yes, that’s a reference to their brains, I just couldn’t quite make it work the way I wanted). I mean, it’s probably not enough time to cure cancer or invent a really good cable organizing system, but you could have latch hooked a really nice rug by now, or made a portrait of Elvis with little rolled up gum wrappers, AT LEAST.

You know what? Forget it. Do want you want. I’m done. Seriously.

episode 100: Suitless, helmetless, and utterly baffled

Well, ain’t this a kick in the underpants? No one would have believed, on that random Tuesday in 2142, that the Oz 9 would still be kicking (mumble) months later. And yet, as we stare down the barrel of our 100th full episode, well, here we still are, just to the left of Uranus, clueless and shivering in the dark.

But isn’t that just the human condition, basically? I mean… if we’re going to philosophize….

Oh, let’s not. Pour yourself something naughty and well-deserved, prepare tissue for the inevitable nosebleed, and roll the episode. Happy 100, Space Monkeys — so glad to have you still on board. And to have a board for you to be on. You know what I mean.

episode 99: Put your kidneys on speaker

With the end of Season 5 just …. an indeterminate time but probably about two weeks away, the eternal Tuesday of the spotless (thanks to Joe) 9 is getting darker, scarier, and downright rude.

We hope you’ll join us (though in good conscience we can’t recommend it) as we spin and flip and spiral out of control toward the last episode of this season. Bring lozenges — there’s gonna be a lot of shouting.

episode 98: Something is coming

It’s time to check under the bed, make sure the closet doors are firmly shut, tuck any clown dolls in your siblings’ rooms or the freezer, and crank up the nightlight — things are getting spooky on the Oz 9.

“Something is coming,” and it’s probably not bearing ice cream or prezzies. The crew of the 9 are in trouble, and though this is no big surprise, it is nearly the end of the season, so you never know….

episode 97: Well, this is unexpected

So, a few things to discuss here. Basically, don’t do ANYTHING you hear in this episode. So, I guess there’s really only one thing to discuss. Never mind.

Some warnings: sounds of person nearly drowning. Some painful but non-lethal punching.

TRANSCRIPT

There are no credits on this episode, so I’mma do them here.

episode 96: Why is there a bar on the bridge?

I DON’T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT.

Have you ever met a Kestochalian? Actually, you might have. They’re sort of lovely, except when you want to thump them on the snoot. Which, to be fair, is true of a lot of living things. Also my computer. Which, if it had a snoot, would have been thoroughly thumped on today.

ANYWAY, we made something for you, and if you’ve ever made a huge Sunday meal, this is kind of like that. We slaved all day, it’ll be over in 20 minutes, and then we start over. Do I sound crabby? I feel kind of crabby.
