#Listener Questions

[tripodmaximum]

Hi guys! Huge fan since the first episode. I spent my holiday overnight shift into Thanksgiving just listening to you guys. I do have to ask though: what's the name of the intro song and its lyrics, and is there anywhere I can listen to it?

Keep up the good work everybody! <3

@museqmeg here! Thank you so much for enjoying our podcast! The intro song we used is "Vash the Stampede" from the Trigun Stampede OST! We're actually in the process of updating our intro and outro songs, but you can listen to the OST on almost all of the streaming services! Lyrics: Here I come, here I come Any enemy is powerless in front of me, yeah Here I come, here I come, Keep anybody that gets in my way away from me, yeah Yet everybody involved like a Typhoon Pull the trigger shoot down 'nother full moon Can't you see what I have in my hands? Call me Vash the Stampede Bringer of love and peace

Imagine Carlos and Kevin dancing together in the desert otherworld kitchen listening to music while baking , on explorations with the army doing cute things together, and at night sharing a sleeping bag

SOMEHOW I DIDNT SEE THIS... I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking about it very much

To answer your listener questions:

In all honesty, Jeremy Larkin. I have a soft spot for grumpy archivists. Probably why Magnus Archives was the first podcast I actually stayed with. I look forward to a grumpy archivist who already knows about the spookiness.

I first discovered Dracula in my 6th (or possibly 5th?) grade classroom library. I was going through a several year ghost story phase and having run out of ghosts was desperate enough to try vampires. It was a fun read but not terribly impactful until reading again in university (it was free to download and I had a very stressful plane ride to get through). That version had beautiful/distressing illustrations and together with my stressful environment helped to get the story into my heart.

My favorite part of the book is the coach ride where everyone bands together to try to help Jonathan. They are strangers, he is a foreigner that they have no reason to like, and they risk themselves to save him. They did not know that day they would meet Dracula's new victim, so the flowers and such must of been their own protection from such horrors and they gave them away to try to help him. The coach driver tries to trick Dracula and get Harker safely away, and they all go along with it even though they must know what defying Dracula could mean. They all tried to help and even if it didn't work the attempt is beautiful and kind and so very brave.

Thank you for sharing your answers! Love these! Jeremy is very grumpy indeed we’re looking forward to you all getting to know him!

Dracula truly does feel like a story you get to rediscover, somehow. It certainly feels that way for a lot of people, yourself included and I’m glad it has a place in your heart!

I love the coach scene, and it’s criminal it’s never adapted properly 🥲

Do you have a favorite show you’ve ever done?

To be honest, I don't usually keep track of them. But I always enjoy it when Lethe joins me for a broadcast.

The Magnus Archives is a show because if someone says “the episode with the guy who was having bug sex” you need to say “which one?”

Is Michael Afton gay or European in FNAF?…

how i feel about all the changes in s3

[notbecauseofvictories]

I don't know how strictly accurate this is, but one of the things I find shocking about watching historical dramas is how many people there are around all the time---according to Madame de... (1953) a well-off French household in the Belle Epoque maintains a workforce of at least 3, and the glittering opera has staff just to open doors. According to Shogun (2024) you can expect a deep bench just to mind your household, and again, people who exist to open doors.

Could people....not open doors in the past? Were doors tricky, before the standardization of hinges? Because otherwise, the wealthy used to pay a whole bunch of people to do it for them in multiple contexts, and I find myself baffled.

My coworker, explaining Galicia to me: It's like Scotland, if you fall from a mountain you'll see that there's no fall damage because the soil is like foam

face value

[deikshen]

Shen Qingqiu accidentally got caught in one of the plagiaristic wife plots from Airplane, becoming cursed like Medusa. Literally. Anyone he sees turns into a stone statue and has many snakes instead of hair. Airplane said it was an interesting way to explore papapa blindfolded and Shen Qingqiu hated him more for it.

However, the only one who now knows his situation is Mu Qingfang; in the eyes of the rest of the Sect, Shen Qingqiu was blinded as a result of some curse. He hides the snakes with talismans drawn on his skin that make people unable to perceive them, they just see him all the time with his long hair loose and untidy.

Snakes are a piece of shit. They hiss and talk all the time and only Shen Qingqiu can fucking understand them. They gossip about how sexy Liu Qingge is, talk shitty about Airplane, and make weird and unfortunate comments all the time. Shen Qingqiu can hardly concentrate many times.

Snakes are also... nice. In a way. They nibble at his cheeks and force him to eat something. They tell him secrets they hear. They smell the air and tell him when it's going to rain or if a disciple has been misbehaving. With Luo Binghe in the Abyss, they are certainly pleasant company.

Then Jinlan arrives, and Shen Qingqiu may be blind to the jianghu, but that doesn't mean he won't show up. It will help even with a blindfold – in fact, he can see through it, albeit in black and white and mostly in very poor quality. It's as if he's using his qi to see thanks to the talismans he's developed with Mu Qingfang! Which also means that when Without-a-Cure attacks him, he's completely blind behind the blindfold, but oh well. Occupational hazards.

And then, Luo Binghe is there.

And their snakes go fucking crazy, excited, not one of them is scared, damn it! They've all heard of Binghe – seriously, Shen Qingqiu may have told them about Binghe, but SERIOUSLY! Don't put it like that! It's just his disciple who came back to kill him. And the Protagonist. YOU, ENOUGH SAYING HE'S SEXY.

Shen Qingqiu survives the first encounter without being dismembered, with the whole bunch of snakes murmuring and squealing excited hisses that only Shen Qingqiu can hear and understand. Fine. He just needs to protect himself with Liu-shidi and...

And of course Luo Binghe steps forward, cornering him in his own room. Of course he had to be faster and...

God, seriously, stop saying he's hot!

Shen Qingqiu is grateful that no one but him can hear any of those chaotic snakes. Except that–

Why the HELL can Luo Binghe also hear and understand them!? Seriously, Airplane!? That wasn't in the novel!! Luo Binghe, don't castrate your scum Shizun for being lustful too, all that stuff about you being sexy and hot isn't just thoughts you're accidentally hearing! It's the snakes in the hair of this master!!

... Why doesn't Luo Binghe seem disgusted by all those snake murmurs, though? There's no way he's okay with Shen Qingqiu thinking that way about him – AND IT'S NOT THAT SHEN QINGQIU THINKS THAT WAY ABOUT HIM!
