Category: Bonus Episode

So, turns out our horny —sorry, “horned” — romantic Pluto has siblings. And like all siblings, they’re annoying, disruptive, omniscientish, and likely to go darting off through space at something approaching light speed just to show off in front of YOUR girlfriend. Ok, those last two might apply more to Pluto’s sibs than yours. Whatever the case, they hog all the ambrosia, snap your privates with a lightning bolt when you least expect it … yeah, I hear it, that might be more Pluto’s sibs than yours too, but you get my point — annoying.

And like all siblings, they expect all the plebes to worship the very ground they walk on. Even if that ground was the plebes’ to start with.

In this fabulous bonus episode penned by our own Pete Barry (we love that guy, even if we want to drown Bob in his own earwax), Pluto of the honey-covered voice and words returns to sweep Donna off on the kind of impromptu vacay that requires super powers and membership in the Valhalla of Fame.

But their romantic sojourn is interrupted by Pluto’s siblings, and things, rather like this description, unravel from there.

t’s frankly annoying how much y’all have missed this guy (and yes, we get it, we missed him too). “When’s LBF coming back?” We heard you cry. “Bring back the Frounch dude!”

FINE.

The silly meter just shot from 11 to infinity and you’ve no one to blame but yourselves.

And of course, we’re offering our standard apology to France and all French-speaking peoples and areas of the world for our continued and downright gleeful butchering of your glorious language and its many accents. All of which appear to be rolled into this one guy.

Seriously, I just watched a parrot on TikTok who NAILED IT. But we’ve got … LBF.

Listen up, Space Monkeys, as Sarah Golding tries to glue the utterly delightful Aaron Clark to a chair and chat with the notorious Frounch fellow, the man who puts the double ass in assassin. Oh, and there’s Ben. Remember Ben? Yeah, we didn’t either, but now we’re pretty sure he has something to do with Julie.

Welcome back, le Bichon Frise!

Pretty sure that’s pronounced free-

First, if you haven’t listened to Mission: Rejected, seriously, do you read these notes EVER? We’ve mentioned that show a brazillion times, so just GO LISTEN ALREADY. Look, I’ll even make it easy for you: here is their website (https://www.missionrejected.com/). Here it is on Apple podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mission-rejected/id1454748884) and on Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/5uhNkMlYaJmIg1GZU5LCl2?si=f62f29bb30cf4df3).

There! Anything else I can do for you? Make you a sandwich, perhaps? Dust off your dainty toesies? Sheesh.

Second, this is Sarah Golding and Pete Barry being all sorts of witty and fun. Enjoy.

Hmmmmmm? Wazzat? Oh, hello, are you still here? Goodness, you are patient. Yes, season 7 is still in the works. Here’s a little something to tide you over until it splooches messily into your timeline.

This is one of those silly conversations between the glorious Sarah Golding and poor Kevin Hall (Greg, Felonius), who has died on Oz 9 more than anyone else, although not recently which may mean he’s overdue.

Ignorance Was Bliss podcast by Kate Wallinga who mattered and is most desperately missed: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ignorance-was-bliss/id1341566170

Honestly, there’s just nothing good to be gained from listening to this. It’s a bunch of people old enough to know better being very silly while affecting various accents (with varying degrees of success). Good ahead and listen if you want to, but please wear headphones and do something redemptive with your hands, like making food for unhoused people or picking your nose. We’ll all feel better about it.

Much thanks to Sarah Golding, to whom all credit (and frankly, blame) belongs.

Yer ever-lovin’,
