I wanted to start with this first cause... this is my new favorite episode of Mgafs! For the sole reason of Puppet and F.C.'s interactions. Especially when...
SPOILER ALERT IN

F.c. called Puppet, Mom! MOM!
Puppet's reaction is so wholesome. She just likes, "I.. I need a minute 😭" That was really cute! Puppet is actually a pretty decent mom.
I also loved it when Monty still on the phone is just like, "Did I hear that right?" I love it when something shocking, dramatic, or surprisingly wholesome happens, and someone else is listening in or just in the background, and no one notices till it's over.
Eclipse is kinda of bad babysitter.... okay, a very bad babysitter. He had basically no reaction to when F.C. fell. No one let Eclipse babysit their kid!
And now on to Puppet abandoning a child... again.
Jack really needs Solar back and probably needs more friends than just Dazz, maybe Vageta? Also, Jack considered Puppet his mom is super cute. Puppet come get your kid!
And now onto the not-so wholesome. Here's three things I love about this episode (I mean, I love all of this episode, but he's three things I wanted to talk about).
1. I love this thumbnail art. He's like "Give me it!"
And Moon's like, "No." Priceless! 🤣
2. Moon and Creator's banter is always fun, two geniuses who absolutely can't stand the other being smarter than the other.
3. Creator seems to be getting desperate. Good. Let him work. Let him try, I'm curious to see what he'll do cause clear he's a nut job now. (I mean he already was but now he's more of one)
He built Goliath, a cannibal robot. He purposely built a robot that eats other robots... ya, he crazy. Thankful Sun was there to save Moon cause that was a close call. Sun really pulled a 'David and Goliath' there, good job, Sun! 👍
Does anyone else think Creator and Nexus will inevitably join forces. It just seems to be perfect for them not to. Can't wait to see if they team up they would be the most dangerous team in the show's history. (In my opinion.)
Davis,Reed,Valentine, amazing as usual.
12/10!!!! Cause I really really loved the mgafs episode!
Song Review: James Taylor - “Mexico” (Live, Aug. 1, 1999)
Aug. 1, 1999, was a weird day in “Mexico.”
James Taylor put what sounded more like a coda up front, inserted a South American-leaning bridge in the middle and tacked a snippet of “Hit the Road Jack” on the end of the song as performed at the Cambridge Folk Festival a quarter-century ago and just freed from the J.T. vault.
The tune itself is typically breezy and sunny in this rendering. And while Taylor can’t be blamed for changing things up to keep things interesting for himself, this arrangement of “Mexico” is simply disjointed and curious for fans.
Grade card: James Taylor - “Mexico” (Live - 8/1/99) - C
Whenever a customer says they’re never coming back the cashiers should automatically get a button that when pressed plays Hit the Road Jack by Ray Charles
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm
There's a killer on the road
His brain is squirmin' like a toad
Take a long holiday
Let your children play
If you give this man a ride
Sweet memory will die
Killer on the road, yeah
Girl, you gotta love your man
Girl, you gotta love your man
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends
Our life will never end
Gotta love your man, yeah
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm

Lecture 11: Ray Charles’ huge hit “Hit the Road Jack,” written by singer-songwriter Percy Mayfield (1920-1984), instantly skyrocketed to the #1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 in October 1961. The beloved R&B pop favourite went on to become one of Charles’ most instantly recognizable signature songs. Over the years, it has been featured in too many movies to count, and has been remade by a number of musicians, including the Canadian band The Stampeders in 1976. The runaway success of “Hit the Road Jack” cemented Ray Charles’ status as one of the giants of R&B and a founder – along with Sam Cooke – of the newly emerging genre of Soul Music. Even though this song is considered more R&B than Soul, its massive success helped draw audiences to Charles’ many Soul songs.
Hit The Road Jack is a solo TTRPG with a very specific idea of the story it wants to tell: a cat-and-mouse chase between two characters - Jack Be Nimble and Jack Be Quick. Check out Rowan's full review now!
