THROUGH me you pass into the city of woe: Through me you pass into eternal pain: Through me among the people lost for aye. Justice the founder of my fabric moved: To rear me was the task of Power divine, Supremest Wisdom, and primeval Love. Before me things create were none, save things Eternal, and eternal I endure. All hope abandon, ye who enter here

Magnus Protocol Q&A - Summarised
The number of cameos from TMA characters was kept to a certain amount, though they were not sure what characters specifically they wanted to appear.
Jack is actually Celia's baby. Her claiming that she just slept around a lot and doesn’t know who the father is is apparently true. He’s distinctly non-supernatural to add dramatic tension.
The Fears have been pushed aside in favour of the new alchemy-based system of metaphysics, as the Fears have already been explained and there’s no mystery, but they don’t seem to have been completely discarded.
Only 5-10% of how the new system works is in the series so far, and Johnny thinks the full thing is probably overcomplicated - apparently, it involves "fifth-dimensional vectors". The two systems are able to function around one another.
Archives focuses on "supernatural history", while Protocol focuses on supernatural forms of other sciences.
Alexander J. Newall really REALLY hates Needles. Apparently, he was a placeholder idea and "he’s made of needles" was as much character as he initially had. Alex tried to veto Needles's existence, but he was needed to serve a specific "function" for the episode.
Needles is, however, Johnny Sims' favourite External. Mr. Bonzo is Alex's favourite.
Mr. Bonzo destroyed that car on purpose. He’s just a prick.
Protocol's writing structure is very different from Archives' because before it was just Johnny writing everything himself, but now it Johnny and Alex + guest writers on the same script.
Guest writers are usually given a selection of prompts to write for, but they can request their own prompts if they fit tonally. There’s an abridged version of the alchemy system for the guest writers to use.
There’s something in Season 2 that will link a few guest statements into their own small cohesive narrative. This stemmed purely from noticing consistent themes.
Because there’s less episodes, the plot has to happen quicker than in Archives and there’s less filler statements and direct sequels to statements.
Archives' ending was written intentionally so that they could do a sequel series if they wanted to, but they didn’t have that many ideas for it when Archives was still going. Almost none of the statement ideas pitched while they were developing Protocol actually made it into the series.
The art from the TTRPG isn’t intrinsically canon.
Things were a lot more corporate/capitalist in the planning phase before shifting towards civil services. Johnny lived with someone who worked in civil services for a few years, and similar themes are also in his book BLACKOUT.
The video game Control was a big inspiration.
Mr. Bonzo gets better benefits from his job than Alex does.
The Archivist is not Lucia Wright from MAG 130. Their actual identity is a spoiler, obviously.
Alice was written as trans because Johnny and Alex are friends with a lot of trans people. Having a trans character was actually one of the first things decided for the new series. Her being trans won’t be important to the plot.
Alex leans into the comedy-satire aspect when writing, which is why Protocol has more of it than Archives. It’s comedy was primarily inspired by sitcoms like Peep Show and The Thick Of It, as well as small sketch comedy troupes.
Colin is written like that because every person who works in IT is in some way scared of machines.
DPHW numbers do have meaning and are calculated from a real spreadsheet. Apparently how high the numbers are is biased (meaning most likely the theory that they’re related to how much fear is felt is probably true).
They claim that there is enough evidence for fans to figure out what the system means, and that they’ve seen interpretations that are close to the truth but not exactly. They note specifically that they’re how the OIAR classifies things, and not exactly how the world actually works.
The first few DPHW's done by Sam are confirmed as having been done wrong in-universe.
Johnny was the one that wanted to involve Issac Newton in the plot, and apparently things just didn’t work without involving him.
Making a podcast is very very hard.
