    EP 47 A Room With A Moose - Heaven or Hell?

    It's a room with a Moooooose! (from Invader Zim) What do you need to know to survive/enjoy/prosper from this MOOSEY FATE? What is gravitational whale astronomy?Is the borg just space-box?Is an infinite moose a wave or a particle?(we forget entirely to talk about possible world's theory)As a wise one once said: "Data-fish teaches you".

    EP 46(Special!) Anne Boleyn - The Vengeful Queen

    Special OverLondon takeover! As the 19th of May is the anniversary of Anne Boleyn rather unfairly getting the chop, we figured it was high time we honored both her and our OverLondon universe equivalent The Vengeful Queen! (may she rest in vengeance) Can one fire an arrow box from a bow?Ships that fall over when they fire!!Is dressing as a giant bee in an English court advisable?What is the mouthfeel of roast chaise lounge?No history was harmed in the making of this podcast.

    (Season 3 return!) EP 45 Powdered Toast Man - Nanotech Buttocks

    Ahahaha, we're doing this again!!! In this episode we delve into the depths of our shared history, to that which grew ridges on our smooth child-brains (for better or worse): Powdered Toast Maaaaaan (from the absurd and disturbing "Ren and Stimpy"). If you have no idea what that is, then you're in for a treat (but it's not my fault if it tastes like sawdust). We look at the standard questions: Is PTM a grey-goo nanotech disaster just waiting to happen in your breakfast chunks?Buttock or Buttocks, good sir?Can we offend the French(aristocrats) in time for Eurovision?Is the shampoo conspiracy affecting us all?And other questions you never knew were actually questions, till you questioned the questions.

    EP 44 The Meg - Shark Pigging

    We investigate how a combined Meg-Jason Statham fusion would work as a pet and almost manage to make a coherent episode: Can you milk a cow shark?How exactly, do you grind cheese?Can you use Jason Stratham as a grinder?And yes, we pronounce Jason Statham's name with an R because I once heard someone say it like that on the radio once and it got glued in my brain. It's science. Statham science.  Also - OverLondon our comic-fantasy-whodunnit is available at our website, OverLondon.net!

    EP 43 The VelociPastor - Low expectations exceeded!

    EP 42 Oscar the Grouch - nuclear powered pachyderm polyamory

    We're back! Season 2 baybee! We kick off with the highly contested, Oscar the Grouch... yes, we'll do a proper monster next time I promise. Anyway - we ask the real questions: Is his can nuclear powered?Is he a rent-controlled defense against gentrification?Is his girlfriend comfortable with his pachyderm polyamory?Can we evict him and clean up the Pacific Ocean?Do puppets breathe, or only when you're not watching?Would you buy animal-people-leather?? And remember: What happens in the can, stays in the can.

    EP 41 Naughty Editors - psychic damage and you

    As we are just finishing off the edit on a book, we thought we'd have a (hopefully informative) rant about editors and the editorial process. Because gnarr. Signs your editor may stink and how to find a shiny unicorn.What are the breeds of editor?How much do they cost?Various stories from the trenches...Also on another note... we gonna be traveling and kicking off some house sitting again in SE asia (looking after some real monsters), so till we get back in the swing we may be a little intermittent :D

    EP 40 The Secret Purpose of the Crystal Gems from Steven Universe

    So I had a think about it, and it turns out the Crystal Gem species is rather overpowered. Like... Immortal xenomorph meets nano-tech hegemonic-swarm combined with planet sculpting and  a side salad of resurrection plus faster than light travel. So I might have gotten a tiny bit ambitious with this episode... I work out what the true purpose of the Gem civilization is!We decide the mecha-diamond needs a crown and underpants (George gets to be those)Non-binary post scarcity utopia for everyone!Grey Goo got nothing on The Pinkness.Also... Peridot best gem.
