Peculiar Objects, S1E8: JP ❤s TM

Oddie ventures where EVEN THE HARDIEST Moose-Scout troops fear to tread: THE PLUTONIC TIMBER, deep in the heart of the forest!

WILL he find Carly Figueroa--or what's left of her--in the depths of that OTHERWORLDLY ARBOR?

HOW can he and Kitt get to the fried chicken buffet before all the friggin' tenders and popcorn chicken get taken BY JERKS WHO HAVE NO RESPECT FOR THE HUNGRY LAW?

And WHAT on SOME OF OUR GOD'S green earth leaves footprints the size of a ten-year-old girl???

All of this and instructions on how to build your very own utility-cast on this, the last episode of Peculiar Objects to feature Casey Hills!

Peculiar Objects is run by Thony "The Thing About Moosewood Trees" Moore and played by Nigel "The Groove Is In The Heart" Collins and Casey "A Snack-Dense Environment" Hills, who also edits and produces it.

The Final Podblem, S1E30: The Adventure Of The Three Gables, Or: Oops, I Made A Monomyth (Copy)

We briefly discuss a confusingly bad, racist story, then bury it in the shallow grave it deserves and instead explore how to responsibly enjoy problematic media (it's not hard!), how to learn about people whose experience is different from yours (ask them!) and what on earth is wrong with people who get mad when their media become inclusive (almost everything!).

We're not linking to this story because it's racist garbage you don't need in your life! If you wanna read it on your own, feel free.

Pods & Ends:

-The Marrow of Tradition, by Charles Chesnutt

-Born A Crime, by Trevor Noah

The Final Podblem is cohosted by Nicholas ‘I'm Gonna Go Steal India’ Cohen and Casey ‘The Dinkleberg Refutation’ Hills, who also edits and produces it.

Squirrel Scouts of America #1: A Degree In Went-To-College

Andrew, Nicholas and Casey discuss the first issue of The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl (2015!) What can three dudes learn about friendship, positivity and achieving consistency across distributed database systems from a dame with partially-squirrel blood, unstoppable optimism and a best friend named Tippy Toe?

WHO is the man in the jaguar jeggings, and what does he want with entirely-normal Empire State University student Doreen Green?

IS there a pair of pants so torn that even Hulk won't save them in a box in the attic "in case Hulk need them one day"?

HOW MANY TIMES will Casey say "Here's the thing" before he has to forcibly excise it from his vocabulary like he had to do with calling things "wild"? DARE YOU TAKE THE PLEDGE, DON THE EARS AND JOIN THE SQUIRREL SCOUTS OF AMERICA?

Squirrel Scouts of America is hosted by Nick "Eska Pism" Cohen, Andrew "#1 Nancy Fan-cy" Orsie and Casey "Mugger Just Wanna Mug" Hills, who also edits and produces it. It can be found on semiautomagicinc.com along with the rest of our shows or @Squirrel_Scouts on Twitter!
