  Tad Eggleston: Good evening, everybody. Welcome back to 22 Panels and the Heavy Metal Book Club, and
• 0:10
  Tad Eggleston: This is, what, the H.P. Lovecraft issue from Halloween of 1979?
• 0:16
  Matt: was.
• 0:18
  Tad Eggleston: I'm gonna… I'm gonna kind of make everybody else be…
• 0:21
  Tad Eggleston: be… be co-host and move the episode along, because I am…
• 0:26
  Tad Eggleston: down for the count. I have… I have a throbbing head, and, like, if we require me to, like, host host this evening, then nothing will happen. So…
• 0:39
  Tad Eggleston: Who wants to volunteer to help?
• 0:42
  Tad Eggleston: Introduce this, this issue.
• 0:45
  Matt: Okay.
• 0:47
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Sure, why not? We're, we're looking at heavy metal, October 1979. This is the special H.P. Lovecraft issue, which is kind of strange for our old school heavy metal, because I don't remember before now, ever having an issue specially dedicated to anything.
• 1:06
  Peter Eggleston Connor: All the new metal heavy metals have it, but not the old one.
• 1:10
  Dillon Gilbertson: It's almost like, yeah, when I was reading it, I was like, did I accidentally pick the next Metal or Lont?
• 1:16
  Dillon Gilbertson: Because, like, it's all dead… it's all around one thing, and that's what…
• 1:19
  Matt: Sure, yeah.
• 1:19
  Dillon Gilbertson: Metal Ralon's?
• 1:20
  Matt: fun issue, this one…
• 1:21
  Peter Eggleston Connor: This problem.
• 1:22
  Matt: Probably is the first one where they dedicated it to a genre.
• 1:27
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, definitely.
• 1:28
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yep, we got a nice, interesting cover art. It looks like somebody took a photo and put it on a photo album, and
• 1:36
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That photo just happens to be some crazy H.P. Lovecraft-looking thing, though not the most Lovecraft-looking thing I've ever seen.
• 1:45
  Matt: Exactly. But it was a fun issue. It was, you know, H.P. Lovecraft is a…
• 1:50
  Matt: Brilliant writer, and this was actually a lot of fun to read.
• 1:55
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I… I believe that's true. It's been a little bit since I read it, so .
• 1:59
  Matt: I went through it again today. I was like, oh yeah!
• 2:04
  Peter Eggleston Connor: So this is gonna be a refresh of perspective for, for me.
• 2:10
  Peter Eggleston Connor: a Norman Spinrad something-something.
• 2:14
  Matt: A world between.
• 2:16
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, I don't remember anything about this, but it's kind of a cool image.
• 2:19
  Matt: I think this is just a… And…
• 2:22
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, I think it does too.
• 2:27
  Peter Eggleston Connor: And, free game, don't know if we can get that, but, you know, it's called Starforce, Alpha Centauri, and, next page.
• 2:34
  Matt: I have the issue, should I clip the coupon and try and get it?
• 2:37
  Peter Eggleston Connor: If you want… However, you could also preserve your instant but not cook the coupon, I mean…
• 2:46
  Tad Eggleston: You were getting heavy metal when you were 3?
• 2:50
  Tad Eggleston: Who were your parents?
• 2:52
  Matt: About 12 years ago.
• 2:53
  Matt: I took an interest in heavy metal, because I remembered it from the 90s, and I'm like, you know what? This is, like, a treasure trove of awesome shit, so I'm going to start buying back issues. And, you know, I obtained the first year and the second year, and then I started being like, alright, I'm gonna pick issues that are probably
• 3:13
  Matt: should be more sought after than others, and this issue was one of those issues that I picked up.
• 3:18
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Nice.
• 3:19
  Matt: because of H.P. Lovecraft.
• 3:21
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Well, of course.
• 3:27
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Got a contents here, got some Chateau, some Bresia, some Mobius, some Terrence and Dahl.
• 3:36
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Voss, Dank, Clark, Nicolette, Sean Kelly, Matthew…
• 3:45
  Matt: Shalon and Cornelian.
• 3:48
  Matt: Julie…
• 3:50
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yep.
• 3:51
  Matt: Clever looks.
• 3:54
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Margarine?
• 3:55
  Peter Eggleston Connor: David Hurd with William Bytes and Walter Simmonson.
• 4:01
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Arthur Sudan, Vepi and Cepi? Oh, wow, that's… That rolls off the tongue.
• 4:09
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Jk Potter.
• 4:11
  Matt: That's Harry Potter's brother?
• 4:13
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That's what I was wondering about, and .
• 4:17
  Tad Eggleston: Simonson is who my cat's named after.
• 4:21
  Dillon Gilbertson: Hmm.
• 4:22
  Matt: Nice.
• 4:22
  Tad Eggleston: Or one of them.
• 4:23
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, nice.
• 4:25
  Tad Eggleston: Walter Oden Meatball.
• 4:27
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Walter Odinito. Sappy.
• 4:30
  Matt: Alright, we got some rolling papers, cool. Pick a peck.
• 4:33
  Matt: Yep.
• 4:35
  Peter Eggleston Connor: 31, we go into… how this is a… the… the Lovecraft issue?
• 4:47
  Matt: It's only $33 a year in 1979 to get this Delivered to your door.
• 4:54
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Like, once a month, right?
• 4:56
  Matt: Yup, it was monthly.
• 4:58
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Studio 3… an issue.
• 5:02
  Matt: Man!
• 5:03
  Matt: I need a time machine.
• 5:05
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Right?
• 5:07
  Dillon Gilbertson: That's the one thing we should use the time machine for, is to get a cheaper subscription to heavy metal.
• 5:13
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Just that.
• 5:14
  Dillon Gilbertson: Aside from these…
• 5:15
  Matt: And other comics.
• 5:17
  Dillon Gilbertson: Aside from these… these copies that we… don't pay for.
• 5:23
  Dillon Gilbertson: And can read for free.
• 5:25
  Matt: Stop on truffles!
• 5:30
  Matt: Okay, well, it's cool.
• 5:32
  Matt: Ugh.
• 5:34
  Matt: Final Justice!
• 5:37
  Dillon Gilbertson: This one was fun. It was…
• 5:39
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, I remember this one, yeah.
• 5:40
  Dillon Gilbertson: It wasn't… so, like, H.P. Lovecraft, I feel like…
• 5:45
  Dillon Gilbertson: Most people think of his stories, like, they're all… they're all very… not… not to put him down, but they're all very long-winded, like, they're all very eloquently spoken, and they're all very, there's a lot of $10 words, and…
• 6:01
  Dillon Gilbertson: You know what I'm saying?
• 6:03
  Peter Eggleston Connor: This was just like, he was bare.
• 6:04
  Dillon Gilbertson: It was very…
• 6:05
  Peter Eggleston Connor: A lot of describing the nothingness.
• 6:08
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, it's all, it's all…
• 6:09
  Matt: Very monster Cthulhu-driven.
• 6:11
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, it's Eldritch Forward.
• 6:14
  Peter Eggleston Connor: So undescribable.
• 6:15
  Dillon Gilbertson: This was decidedly not eldritch in almost any way.
• 6:20
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Which was, like, yeah, a nice departure.
• 6:23
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Rather interesting. Ancient story, and
• 6:29
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Then there's that nice twist into what the actual story was.
• 6:34
  Matt: But I feel like… so the only plot hole I found in this story was, these two people are the only people that have ever seen this play out.
• 6:43
  Matt: So they know that it's different?
• 6:47
  Dillon Gilbertson: Well, at the very, the very end, the last panel, they're driving away, and it says, show canceled.
• 6:52
  Matt: Yup.
• 6:53
  Dillon Gilbertson: And so I was… I don't know if I was reading too much into it, but I was like, is this the only time this has happened at the show? And that one person… and that one person actually gets murdered and thrown out the window?
• 7:03
  Matt: Right.
• 7:03
  Dillon Gilbertson: And now the show's over because everybody's dead?
• 7:06
  Matt: Or, because these people don't know the truth?
• 7:09
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah. I mean, they put on the show specifically for them, so that they would write a book about the truth.
• 7:14
  Matt: Yeah.
• 7:15
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I thought it was just some, like, haunted place where, like, you know, it was actually canceled ever since they, like, drove up, like, because we don't… we never see the sign when they originally go in, right? That's true. So, like, they go in, and then there's a show, and it's like…
• 7:32
  Peter Eggleston Connor: But the show was canceled today because of, like, the heavy rain or whatever,
• 7:38
  Peter Eggleston Connor: And, like, it's like, so what they really were seeing wasn't… wasn't the show that was being put on, it was, like.
• 7:47
  Dillon Gilbertson: Well, do we not see the… we don't see the sign earlier? I thought we did.
• 7:50
  Peter Eggleston Connor: So, I mean, maybe I forgot.
• 7:54
  Peter Eggleston Connor: But I don't… I remember seeing the sign at the end and being like, oh, okay, and then, like.
• 7:59
  Tad Eggleston: Yeah, isn't it on page 1?
• 8:01
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, right, or page 2… yeah, right there. I mean, that's a red sign, not a yellow sign, but I'm not gonna ding them.
• 8:07
  Matt: TV performances!
• 8:11
  Peter Eggleston Connor: The same spot, though?
• 8:13
  Dillon Gilbertson: But even if it is the same spot and the same sign, like, this is clearly before the rain. Right. So then the rain starts, the show gets canceled, they go anyway, and they put on a special performance for them.
• 8:25
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, because I don't think it's… I don't think it's the people who normally put on the spectacle, I think it's…
• 8:31
  Dillon Gilbertson: It's depressing.
• 8:31
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I think it's, like, ghosts.
• 8:33
  Dillon Gilbertson: Sickos.
• 8:34
  Matt: I don't know, I… how? I don't… that's the part I don't get, but I still thought it was a cool story.
• 8:41
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Well, I don't know if it's actually a ghosts, but, like, it's kind of like one of those things where, like, it's like…
• 8:47
  Peter Eggleston Connor: It didn't actually… Whatever happened was, like, some sort of, like, weird extra-dimensional shit or something like that, like.
• 8:56
  Matt: Could be.
• 8:56
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Like, it's not described on what exactly happened, but…
• 9:01
  Peter Eggleston Connor: it, like, didn't… did happen. Does that make sense?
• 9:07
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I know, it's not weird, but it's like an old… I feel like it's an old TV, like, trope, where it's like, oh, like, what is the name of that show? The Twilight Zone?
• 9:19
  Matt: Yep.
• 9:20
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Kinda like that sort of thing, where it's like, oh, like, you know, they went into the spot, and nobody was actually there, but they saw a show where people were there anyways.
• 9:30
  Matt: Yeah, I just, I just thought, like, alright, maybe.
• 9:34
  Tad Eggleston: There we go.
• 9:34
  Matt: It never shows, but they put this sign up because these people were there.
• 9:40
  Matt: And they wanted them to see their… this performance, and that's it.
• 9:45
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, I guess I could see that.
• 9:46
  Tad Eggleston: I'm like, why?
• 9:48
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Bother putting up, like, the show canceled and not just take down the sign entirely?
• 9:52
  Matt: Yeah, exactly.
• 9:53
  Matt: Yeah, but that's…
• 9:54
  Dillon Gilbertson: Probably a Permanent sign, they probably… that's probably a…
• 9:58
  Dillon Gilbertson: You know, they can't just take that sign down.
• 10:01
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Also, that's a lot to put up and, like, I don't know, a day?
• 10:06
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Did they know they were coming?
• 10:07
  Matt: Yeah, because they're…
• 10:08
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Magic guy.
• 10:12
  Tad Eggleston: See… And it's been a while, but I thought it was…
• 10:18
  Tad Eggleston: they'd somehow, like, gone, you know, Matt and his time machine went back in time, and, like, the show…
• 10:26
  Tad Eggleston: did this… this… fictitious version, and what they wound up seeing was the real thing.
• 10:37
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That makes sense, too. Like, there was some sort of weird time jump.
• 10:46
  Tad Eggleston: And they got to see that the…
• 10:48
  Tad Eggleston: The… the legend and the reality were… were different.
• 10:58
  Peter Eggleston Connor: There you go.
• 11:01
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Now they can go right about it, or something else.
• 11:07
  Tad Eggleston: Except that would probably be bad luck.
• 11:11
  Tad Eggleston: And haunt them.
• 11:13
  Tad Eggleston: I don't know why, I'm just making assumptions.
• 11:17
  Peter Eggleston Connor: And then we have the Dunwich Horror.
• 11:19
  Matt: Did anyone like the Dunwich horror?
• 11:22
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I need to remember the Dunwich Horror.
• 11:26
  Matt: I'll be honest, if they didn't split it up.
• 11:28
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 11:29
  Matt: I would have enjoyed it more.
• 11:34
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Ugh…
• 11:38
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Obviously, I need to go re… My mother.
• 11:41
  Matt: This is the one about the lady that had the baby.
• 11:44
  Matt: Oh, you're right, right.
• 11:45
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Right.
• 11:46
  Matt: And I could walk by 11 months, and talk by 11 months, or whatever, and everyone hated it.
• 11:57
  Dillon Gilbertson: used before.
• 11:58
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, didn't we? Yeah, we read a Dunwich horror story.
• 12:04
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, I remember that. No, I don't know, I thought it was pretty interesting. I mean, it was kind of strange, but…
• 12:11
  Matt: strange, but I…
• 12:14
  Matt: I dug it, because… because the monster's footprints… Yeah. You look at those, you're like, what the hell makes a footprint shaped like that?
• 12:25
  Matt: When they give you the reveal, it's like, oh, and they're like, alright, that's cool.
• 12:28
  Dillon Gilbertson: Alright, alright. You got me.
• 12:30
  Matt: He's like, "…
• 12:36
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yup.
• 12:39
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, I like the, the depiction of the… the son she had, too, who was a…
• 12:45
  Matt: The deformed face.
• 12:47
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah.
• 12:48
  Matt: Yeah.
• 12:50
  Matt: Alright, so… Yeah, we like this.
• 12:53
  Matt: There talks about destruction, and then continued on page 74.
• 12:59
  Matt: And then they drop us into Cthulhu.
• 13:02
  Dillon Gilbertson: Which is hardly.
• 13:03
  Matt: my favorite Mobius drawings of all time.
• 13:07
  Dillon Gilbertson: They're very good Mobius drawings, I agree. I love the art in this one.
• 13:11
  Matt: Yes.
• 13:12
  Matt: This was just…
• 13:13
  Dillon Gilbertson: I was like…
• 13:14
  Matt: Just blown away.
• 13:15
  Dillon Gilbertson: Is it, like, is he on a game reserve? Is this just, like, a bunch of rich dudes go and, like, kill old go- old useless gods?
• 13:23
  Matt: I think… my impression was, this dude bought the mansion.
• 13:28
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 13:28
  Matt: that holds the gateway.
• 13:31
  Matt: Okay? And he uses it for his rich friends to go on this perverse hunting party.
• 13:38
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yup, that sounds about right.
• 13:44
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Where they go hunt this strange creature.
• 13:50
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, like, I thought of it as, like, where super rich dudes, like, pay a shitload of money.
• 13:56
  Matt: Like they do now to shoot…
• 13:57
  Dillon Gilbertson: To go to a game reserve and ask.
• 13:58
  Matt: Africa, or whatever.
• 13:59
  Dillon Gilbertson: like, okay, there's an old lion here who's gonna die soon anyway, so, like, and he's also in a fenced-in area, so, like, go shoot him, I guess, and feel good about yourself.
• 14:09
  Matt: Yeah.
• 14:11
  Matt: Yeah, it's kind of like modern-day billionaires,
• 14:16
  Matt: hiring a… renting a yacht to shoot Somali pirates.
• 14:20
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Exactly.
• 14:21
  Matt: That's apparently a thing.
• 14:23
  Tad Eggleston: Is it?
• 14:24
  Matt: It is…
• 14:25
  Tad Eggleston: Oh my god.
• 14:26
  Matt: Yeah.
• 14:27
  Peter Eggleston Connor: pretty fucked up.
• 14:28
  Matt: Yeah.
• 14:40
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I mean? And this eldritch god was just doing its thing. What the hell?
• 14:51
  Peter Eggleston Connor: But they do end it with, how long will this crime go unpunished?
• 14:54
  Matt: Right.
• 14:58
  Matt: Yeah, I just… I don't know.
• 15:02
  Matt: This speaks a lot more about society than it should.
• 15:08
  Matt: Seriously.
• 15:09
  Dillon Gilbertson: Or maybe just about the right amount, the amount that it's supposed to.
• 15:14
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Maybe, maybe… It's not more than it should. Maybe it's… maybe it's…
• 15:20
  Dillon Gilbertson: I think.
• 15:21
  Matt: My point is, it's so fucking relevant, it shouldn't be this relevant.
• 15:25
  Dillon Gilbertson: Well, I think… I think rich people have always rich-peopled, it's just that back then it was millionaires, and now it's billionaires.
• 15:32
  Matt: Right, exactly.
• 15:33
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah.
• 15:34
  Dillon Gilbertson: It's always… it's an evergreen story. Like, rich people are always gonna rich people.
• 15:38
  Matt: Yes.
• 15:40
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Gotta try to do the thing that, like, nobody else can do, so they can be like, I can do this because I have all the money in.
• 15:46
  Matt: Because I've exploited so many people, I got billions of dollars. Yeah, exactly.
• 15:50
  Peter Eggleston Connor: violently.
• 15:54
  Matt: Yeah, I really like this story, this is one of my favorites.
• 16:00
  Peter Eggleston Connor: It was a good one, yeah.
• 16:03
  Matt: Zeno meets Dr. Fear and is consumed.
• 16:09
  Matt: This was a short one, it was good. Did anyone… alright, quick aside. Did anyone notice the amount of hyphenated words in this issue?
• 16:18
  Peter Eggleston Connor: No.
• 16:19
  Dillon Gilbertson: In this particular story, or in this…
• 16:21
  Matt: Oh, and this particular issue, throughout, just like, holy crap.
• 16:26
  Matt: I don't know why it stuck out to me, but my ADHD brain was, like, struggling every time a word broke, and I was like, oh, I gotta read that again.
• 16:32
  Dillon Gilbertson: Thank you.
• 16:33
  Matt: Well, I think…
• 16:33
  Dillon Gilbertson: I think that's,
• 16:35
  Dillon Gilbertson: That's sort of an inherent difficulty with adapting H.P. Lovecraft for comics, isn't that? Yeah. Comics are brevity.
• 16:45
  Matt: Yeah, and this is worried.
• 16:47
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, like.
• 16:47
  Matt: Okay.
• 16:47
  Dillon Gilbertson: Space is a valuable resource in comics, and like… H.P. Lovecraft is notoriously wordy.
• 16:55
  Matt: And probably letters of the day.
• 16:58
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 16:58
  Matt: as… Careful?
• 17:03
  Matt: With their replacement, maybe?
• 17:05
  Dillon Gilbertson: And so… and so, like, a lot of… a lot of the bigger words that… the amount of big words that HPL.
• 17:11
  Matt: That's true.
• 17:11
  Dillon Gilbertson: uses. It's difficult to find a small word to fit in this part of the box.
• 17:16
  Matt: You talked about the $10 words, which is 100% spot on.
• 17:20
  Dillon Gilbertson: Right.
• 17:23
  Matt: So, yeah.
• 17:27
  Dillon Gilbertson: Where the Hmm.
• 17:32
  Dillon Gilbertson: See, what is it? He… he's like, he… the guy… the guy wants to offer… something about certainty. He was like…
• 17:39
  Dillon Gilbertson: he was like, certain he's not real, or something, and he's like, I want something certain, and he's like, alright.
• 17:45
  Dillon Gilbertson: I'll give you the one thing that's certain, and then he murders him.
• 17:49
  Matt: Nothing's certain.
• 17:51
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Murders him through eating him.
• 17:53
  Matt: Yep.
• 17:53
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Murders him, then eats them? I think it's Murder Then Eats.
• 17:59
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 18:01
  Matt: Dear… Dr. Fear, your certainty, my pleasure. Enter here. Yep.
• 18:05
  Dillon Gilbertson: The Agile Tongued Xeno.
• 18:10
  Dillon Gilbertson: Order descriptor.
• 18:13
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, agile tongue to Zito.
• 18:16
  Matt: Yeah, no, this was an interesting…
• 18:18
  Matt: story. It wasn't… it's short, it's, you know, to the point.
• 18:22
  Matt: They don't drag it out, I dig that.
• 18:25
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, I mean, it's kind of like a… it's a short reel. I mean, like, it's not a reel, it's a comic, but, you know…
• 18:32
  Matt: Yeah.
• 18:33
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Not something where you have to take a lot of time with it.
• 18:36
  Matt: It's all expedition, there's no dialogue.
• 18:39
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Only kind of remembered it.
• 18:41
  Matt: Yep.
• 18:44
  Matt: The thing. I enjoyed The Thing.
• 18:46
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, yeah.
• 18:47
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 18:48
  Peter Eggleston Connor: host.
• 18:49
  Peter Eggleston Connor: entertaining, essentially.
• 18:51
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Just, it's like, oh, I had this traumatic experience.
• 18:56
  Matt: Yep.
• 18:57
  Matt: You can blame me, but I can tell you it wasn't me. Yeah.
• 19:04
  Peter Eggleston Connor: You remind me and do whatever, but
• 19:08
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, this was some crazy-ass shit that happened here.
• 19:12
  Matt: This is the second… best art storage combo back to, compared to Mobius. Mobius is still number one.
• 19:20
  Matt: But I really enjoyed how this was put together.
• 19:24
  Tad Eggleston: Really interesting panels.
• 19:26
  Matt: Yes, we'll lay out the panels.
• 19:29
  Matt: the concepts, like, I love this.
• 19:32
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, they feel like that, like, they were… like, this whole page was one piece, and then the panel, the gutters, the panel borders just feel like…
• 19:42
  Dillon Gilbertson: The brakes in the image, which was cool.
• 19:45
  Matt: And he's got this awesome phone with enough cord to reach the center of the earth and back.
• 19:51
  Matt: That reel is nowhere near that big, but it's still funny, and I love it.
• 19:55
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yep. No, it's fucking great.
• 19:57
  Matt: Yeah, it's, like, awesome!
• 20:01
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Look at those batteries, like, lined up next to each other.
• 20:04
  Matt: I don't even know how a phone like that would work, but I'm like, that's cool.
• 20:21
  Matt: And I like how the monster tells this guy, he's like, yeah, Warren's dead.
• 20:26
  Matt: So, you can go now.
• 20:28
  Matt: He made a mistake.
• 20:31
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I like… I like that they also used the, name Carter.
• 20:35
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Part of the regular news name in, like, Lovecraft things, I think.
• 20:39
  Matt: Oh, okay.
• 20:42
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I just thought it was funny.
• 20:45
  Matt: I just like the way this is drawn. I love the use of this white line to make these pine trees.
• 20:50
  Matt: shine against the… show up against the dark sky background. Really well done.
• 20:56
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Duh.
• 20:56
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Super great art.
• 20:58
  Matt: Yup.
• 21:00
  Matt: This was an… alright, The Beasts by Dank. This was another short one?
• 21:04
  Matt: And I honestly am not sure that I completely understand it.
• 21:11
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I mean, this feels a little bit like…
• 21:13
  Peter Eggleston Connor: They found a land of dinosaurs, and then they shot them up.
• 21:17
  Matt: But I'm… but hey, I'm… Yes, I get that.
• 21:21
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah. Don't you get it, Matt? They shoot the dinosaurs.
• 21:25
  Matt: Okay, then I guess I get it.
• 21:27
  Dillon Gilbertson: Jeez.
• 21:29
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Feels a little bit like the rich people, except… Different.
• 21:37
  Matt: Yeah, but it's like… I don't… I don't know. It's like, if… if they know the dinosaurs are coming…
• 21:43
  Dillon Gilbertson: Hold on, go…
• 21:44
  Matt: there.
• 21:44
  Dillon Gilbertson: Go, go back one.
• 21:46
  Dillon Gilbertson: A go-forward one, maybe?
• 21:48
  Matt: Oh, sorry.
• 21:50
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, it even says, right, but yes, how long can this go on? Exactly! Which is very much, how long can this go unpunished from the previous one that was just…
• 21:59
  Matt: Right?
• 21:59
  Dillon Gilbertson: Puth.
• 22:00
  Matt: Who's slaughtering who here, man?
• 22:02
  Dillon Gilbertson: Funny.
• 22:03
  Matt: This aggression will not stand, man. Yeah.
• 22:07
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, I mean, like, dinosaurus come every night, and there's more and more of them every night.
• 22:12
  Matt: And then I'm like, so where do they get their bullets from?
• 22:16
  Matt: This feels like they're doing it to themselves.
• 22:20
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I won't bad.
• 22:23
  Matt: I don't know.
• 22:26
  Matt: Alright, the man from the black hole.
• 22:30
  Matt: This one… this was weird.
• 22:33
  Matt: And there was a lot of very wordy panels.
• 22:38
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yep.
• 22:41
  Matt: And, and it was okay, I mean, it was a good story.
• 22:48
  Peter Eggleston Connor: It is very weird, though. I mean, like, essentially, like, it just feels like he meets this guy, and this guy corrupts him into doing all sorts of weird fucking shit that…
• 22:56
  Matt: Yeah, and it's… it's like he knows better, but he does it anyway.
• 23:01
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, it's like, Renfeld, you know, Dracula's assistant.
• 23:07
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That's what it feels like.
• 23:09
  Peter Eggleston Connor: In fact, the guy who is getting him to do the shit even sorta has a vampiric sort of look.
• 23:16
  Matt: Yes, he does.
• 23:19
  Peter Eggleston Connor: When he's not looking like a mad scientist like he is in the lower corner.
• 23:22
  Matt: 20, you know.
• 23:25
  Matt: Yep.
• 23:31
  Matt: Like, okay, so I go to this bookstore.
• 23:34
  Matt: This guy looks at me, makes me feel uneasy, so now, I need to go to his house and hang out.
• 23:41
  Matt: A little disconnected.
• 23:42
  Peter Eggleston Connor: He makes me feel uneasy, so I got it.
• 23:46
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I gotta… I gotta become best friends with him.
• 23:49
  Matt: Right, and do some freaky occult shit.
• 23:52
  Matt: Like, no.
• 23:53
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That is where the story is…
• 23:56
  Matt: Ploth hole. That's the plot hole for me on this one.
• 23:58
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I shouldn't have done that, sorry, anyhow.
• 24:00
  Matt: Would you say I missed it?
• 24:02
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, I said it doesn't sound kinda gay at all.
• 24:08
  Matt: Honestly, I didn't even go there.
• 24:09
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That's what he's into, I'm perfectly happy for him, but…
• 24:14
  Matt: Yeah.
• 24:15
  Matt: I did notice this, this word wrap choice around the top of the mansion.
• 24:20
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 24:21
  Matt: And I felt like it could have been done better.
• 24:25
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I believe that.
• 24:26
  Matt: it was… it was a little hard to read. I had my cursor going like this the whole time to make sure I…
• 24:31
  Matt: Got the lines lined up.
• 24:33
  Matt: It's… I love the concept, do not love the execution.
• 24:40
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I hear him.
• 24:41
  Tad Eggleston: It is a pretty mansion, though.
• 24:42
  Matt: Oh, yeah, the drawing's great! I just, you know, again, the technology of the time probably didn't.
• 24:49
  Matt: We can allow it to be easy.
• 24:51
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, it's not even, like, a problem that, like, it's using a lot of the really long $10 words either, it's just, like…
• 24:58
  Matt: It's… it's just…
• 24:59
  Dillon Gilbertson: It just…
• 24:59
  Matt: Mine's this long, and when you break it, you're…
• 25:02
  Dillon Gilbertson: If it could hug the border of the steeple there better, like, it would work better, but, like, there's.
• 25:07
  Matt: Yes.
• 25:08
  Dillon Gilbertson: The gaps are inconsistent, like, it's just weird.
• 25:10
  Matt: Yes, exactly.
• 25:12
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah.
• 25:13
  Dillon Gilbertson: It's like a really weird example of poor kerning.
• 25:17
  Matt: This is… this is the example of how NOT to word wrap up an image.
• 25:21
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 25:22
  Tad Eggleston: Well, what's really funny is I think they could have fit Knight on the other side.
• 25:26
  Dillon Gilbertson: Definitely could, yeah.
• 25:28
  Tad Eggleston: That would have moved.
• 25:30
  Matt: It would have helped.
• 25:31
  Tad Eggleston: in a way that might have…
• 25:32
  Dillon Gilbertson: Might have helped.
• 25:33
  Matt: Yeah.
• 25:34
  Tad Eggleston: And it had less hyphens?
• 25:36
  Matt: Yep.
• 25:37
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Baby… But they didn't.
• 25:41
  Matt: Yeah, no, that is one… that is the one thing that stood… one thing that stood out to me in this story, and I was like.
• 25:47
  Tad Eggleston: So, I mean…
• 25:48
  Matt: Ugh.
• 25:50
  Tad Eggleston: This is one of the… one of the major differences just between hand and… .
• 25:57
  Matt: Computer lettering?
• 25:58
  Tad Eggleston: computer lettering. When you're doing it by hand, not even, like, because obviously they sketched it in before they made decisions, but you can't…
• 26:10
  Tad Eggleston: It's hard to manipulate in as many different ways when you're trying to figure out how to do it by hand.
• 26:16
  Matt: Yeah, as you.
• 26:17
  Tad Eggleston: You can, when you start.
• 26:18
  Matt: arrows, Until you're happy with how it looks. I get it, I get it.
• 26:23
  Tad Eggleston: Right.
• 26:24
  Matt: And I… but I do appreciate the effort.
• 26:30
  Matt: Does that make sense?
• 26:31
  Tad Eggleston: Yeah.
• 26:32
  Matt: Okay.
• 26:34
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah.
• 26:34
  Tad Eggleston: Well, and here's the thing, the… the right side lines up really well.
• 26:42
  Tad Eggleston: Yes. So…
• 26:43
  Matt: Yes.
• 26:44
  Tad Eggleston: I feel like… I feel like that the emphasis was put there, and… Yeah.
• 26:53
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I mean, I don't think they thought about this, but it does kind of create that whole rift idea.
• 27:00
  Matt: And I also feel like a solid background on the word balloon, or the word box, doesn't help.
• 27:11
  Tad Eggleston: Damn.
• 27:13
  Peter Eggleston Connor: A solid background around the word box doesn't help.
• 27:16
  Matt: Yeah, the solid white here?
• 27:19
  Matt: I feel like if that was…
• 27:21
  Matt: blend it in a little bit, it might… I don't know.
• 27:26
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I see what you mean, getting at.
• 27:28
  Matt: Yeah.
• 27:31
  Matt: But, you know, that's just my…
• 27:32
  Matt: Graphic design critique, I don't, you know…
• 27:37
  Matt: It doesn't make the story worse.
• 27:39
  Matt: Definitely doesn't make it better.
• 27:48
  Matt: Okay…
• 27:59
  Matt: Does anyone understand what happened in his dream here?
• 28:02
  Matt: Is he the one being lowered into the grave?
• 28:05
  Peter Eggleston Connor: It does look like that.
• 28:06
  Matt: Yeah.
• 28:10
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Looks like Black Hole or the other guy is behind the…
• 28:14
  Matt: Yeah.
• 28:16
  Peter Eggleston Connor: He's not the one lowering him, but he's in the picture still.
• 28:20
  Matt: Yeah, I do like the skull with the big… Double eye.
• 28:25
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Cyclops call.
• 28:31
  Matt: Alright, anyway.
• 28:35
  Peter Eggleston Connor: H-P-L.
• 28:41
  Matt: Who has something to say about HPL?
• 28:45
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I don't remember what was HPL.
• 28:48
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, this one… this one's… this one read very HP.
• 28:57
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, I don't even remember, like, what is… I don't remember the end of this one.
• 29:00
  Dillon Gilbertson: Like, they go into the demon city… Oh, that's right, they… yeah, yeah.
• 29:04
  Matt: riddle.
• 29:05
  Dillon Gilbertson: Whoa.
• 29:05
  Dillon Gilbertson: And he gives the right answer to the riddle.
• 29:08
  Dillon Gilbertson: And then he's like, no, dickhead, and then flies away.
• 29:11
  Matt: Yeah, yeah, exactly.
• 29:13
  Dillon Gilbertson: No, you idiot.
• 29:14
  Matt: Yep.
• 29:16
  Peter Eggleston Connor: No, no, certainly not.
• 29:18
  Peter Eggleston Connor: These fools, and then flies off.
• 29:20
  Matt: Yeah.
• 29:21
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That's H.P. Lovecraft, too, isn't it?
• 29:24
  Dillon Gilbertson: So, is… is the answer these fools, or is he calling them fools and then flies away? Is he saying these fools to himself?
• 29:32
  Matt: But the answer is correct. That's why I don't get it.
• 29:38
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, I don't know.
• 29:40
  Matt: you know.
• 29:41
  Matt: A baby crawls on 4… on 4 feet, A man walks, you know.
• 29:49
  Dillon Gilbertson: The Rule of the Sphinx, like, it's… everybody knows this one.
• 29:51
  Matt: Yeah, and an old man uses a cane, so he has 3 feet.
• 29:55
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I mean, it is certainly an answer, but if you're, like, talking about, like, weird H.P. Lovecraft shit, like…
• 30:03
  Dillon Gilbertson: So, it's actually some weird Elder God?
• 30:06
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, exactly.
• 30:07
  Dillon Gilbertson: the answer.
• 30:07
  Matt: answer to.
• 30:12
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I think they made some joke about… I don't remember where they made this joke, but…
• 30:18
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I remember there was a joke about this recently, where it's like.
• 30:21
  Peter Eggleston Connor: what walks on two legs in the morning, or sorry, four legs in the morning, and two legs in the afternoon, and three legs that eat in the evening? It's like, oh, it must be some new, one of those new Pokemon, I can't remember all their names.
• 30:34
  Matt: Yeah, that's kind of funny.
• 30:38
  Matt: Three-legged form, go!
• 30:44
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Water hop! Duo Hop! Tray hop!
• 30:51
  Peter Eggleston Connor: And for some odd reason, it goes in that order.
• 31:01
  Peter Eggleston Connor: They got the third leg wrong, though.
• 31:05
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Nevermind.
• 31:10
  Peter Eggleston Connor: This is a fun picture.
• 31:12
  Matt: Yeah, Loves Kraft.
• 31:15
  Matt: This was a…
• 31:17
  Dillon Gilbertson: I like this one a lot.
• 31:18
  Matt: Illustration.
• 31:19
  Dillon Gilbertson: This was one of my favorite ones.
• 31:22
  Dillon Gilbertson: Just because, like, it reminded me of, like.
• 31:26
  Dillon Gilbertson: Being a kid alone in our dark house, and be like, no, there's fucking monsters by the couch.
• 31:32
  Matt: Oh, definitely.
• 31:34
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, for sure.
• 31:43
  Dillon Gilbertson: I mean, the end sort of lost me a bit, but… The first paragraph was great.
• 31:48
  Matt: Yeah.
• 31:49
  Matt: No, it was fun, it's short, it's cute, it's great.
• 31:53
  Dillon Gilbertson: That's what she got.
• 31:58
  Matt: Drewsbury's Masterpiece.
• 32:00
  Tad Eggleston: Gooseberry.
• 32:02
  Dillon Gilbertson: Dewsbury's. Dewsbury.
• 32:04
  Matt: Alright.
• 32:06
  Matt: Yeah, this was… this was an okay read. I didn't have any issues with this, story.
• 32:30
  Matt: He dies at the end and figures out what his buddy, knew that he didn't.
• 32:38
  Peter Eggleston Connor: He saw something.
• 32:40
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That's what you're doing.
• 32:40
  Matt: Look into the well.
• 32:42
  Peter Eggleston Connor: He looked into the world.
• 32:44
  Matt: Yeah.
• 32:46
  Peter Eggleston Connor: And saw the unspeakable.
• 32:48
  Matt: And it killed him.
• 32:52
  Matt: And his death hardly mattered.
• 32:57
  Peter Eggleston Connor: And is that thoroughly patterned? Yes.
• 32:59
  Matt: Yeah, I don't know, the art's okay, the story was okay, it was… to the point.
• 33:05
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I like that blue phase at the beginning.
• 33:10
  Matt: Sorry.
• 33:10
  Peter Eggleston Connor: age.
• 33:16
  Matt: Yes.
• 33:18
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Such a great faith.
• 33:19
  Matt: It is.
• 33:21
  Matt: I wonder why it's blue.
• 33:24
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I have no idea.
• 33:36
  Matt: Man.
• 33:37
  Matt: one.
• 33:38
  Peter Eggleston Connor: died that night.
• 33:41
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Because that seems like it's his friend the sculptor, right?
• 33:45
  Matt: I think so.
• 33:47
  Peter Eggleston Connor: He went to investigate, and then he found out what he saw.
• 33:52
  Peter Eggleston Connor: So he followed suit of his friend.
• 33:56
  Matt: Yes.
• 33:59
  Peter Eggleston Connor: And saw the unspeakable horror.
• 34:10
  Matt: Yep.
• 34:12
  Matt: I, I liked, I liked that there was a lot of short, Well-done stories in this issue.
• 34:21
  Tad Eggleston: Is that kind of the anti-Lovecraft?
• 34:25
  Matt: Probably, yes.
• 34:27
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, a little bit.
• 34:29
  Dillon Gilbertson: Is that to say that his stories are long and not well done?
• 34:34
  Peter Eggleston Connor: A little bit.
• 34:39
  Tad Eggleston: I always felt like he was a better concept writer than writer.
• 34:43
  Matt: Right, yeah, I agree.
• 34:44
  Dillon Gilbertson: He's a… he was a… he would have been a great ideas man.
• 34:48
  Dillon Gilbertson: Except for.
• 34:49
  Matt: He's like, I've got a writing prompt for you.
• 34:51
  Dillon Gilbertson: Except for his… oh my god, he would so use AI to write his bullshit.
• 34:57
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, fuck.
• 34:58
  Dillon Gilbertson: Thank you, H.
• 34:58
  Peter Eggleston Connor: You know it.
• 35:00
  Matt: That's hilarious.
• 35:02
  Dillon Gilbertson: he wouldn't know how to describe the eldritch Horror, and so he would just ask AI… he'd ask Grok to do it for him.
• 35:09
  Matt: Oh, God, that's horrible.
• 35:10
  Tad Eggleston: And Grok would say, imagine if you took Elon Musk, and he had a baby with Elon Musk.
• 35:19
  Dillon Gilbertson: Whoa.
• 35:19
  Tad Eggleston: And had a baby.
• 35:20
  Matt: What do you wind up with?
• 35:21
  Dillon Gilbertson: That's him. That's him right there.
• 35:23
  Tad Eggleston: with… with Hitler.
• 35:26
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh. Oh yeah, I had Pittler too. Can't forget that.
• 35:29
  Tad Eggleston: Okay, what did my cat do?
• 35:32
  Tad Eggleston: My cat managed to… Hey, just stop!
• 35:37
  Matt: What did he.
• 35:38
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I like all the scrolling pages.
• 35:40
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, were these, were these his actual notes, or were these just some shit that people scribbled around?
• 35:47
  Matt: No, I believe this is his work.
• 35:48
  Tad Eggleston: Because… because it's also signed by Drew A at the end?
• 35:52
  Dillon Gilbertson: Is it?
• 35:53
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah.
• 35:54
  Matt: I'm wrong. I'm okay with it.
• 35:56
  Dillon Gilbertson: I missed that part.
• 36:01
  Dillon Gilbertson: And I could see, I could see some DREA in here.
• 36:04
  Matt: Yeah, absolutely.
• 36:06
  Dillon Gilbertson: Oh yeah, it does say Philip Drury in there, right there.
• 36:08
  Matt: And I couldn't read it, I tried, so…
• 36:10
  Dillon Gilbertson: Wait, don't try to read that, dude.
• 36:11
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, I didn't even try.
• 36:12
  Dillon Gilbertson: You'll go… you'll go mad. You'll go blind if you try to read this.
• 36:15
  Matt: Or you'll summon something you don't want. Yeah. Coming out of your toilet.
• 36:21
  Tad Eggleston: My…
• 36:23
  Dillon Gilbertson: Nope.
• 36:24
  Tad Eggleston: cat… manage to minimize the zoom window in a way where I can't bring it back.
• 36:33
  Dillon Gilbertson: I thought you were reading the text for a second.
• 36:38
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Right there.
• 36:39
  Matt: That is expected.
• 36:40
  Dillon Gilbertson: That's what it says, my cat minimized the zoom window.
• 36:44
  Peter Eggleston Connor: 1979, my cat minimizes zoom window.
• 36:50
  Matt: That's funny.
• 37:04
  Matt: You got us back at?
• 37:06
  Tad Eggleston: Nope.
• 37:07
  Tad Eggleston: I mean, you guys should just keep going. I just can't see you or anything going on, cause…
• 37:12
  Tad Eggleston: I might wind up signing out and coming back.
• 37:15
  Matt: So what's funny is… Your cat.
• 37:18
  Dillon Gilbertson: story.
• 37:19
  Matt: Yeah! Okay.
• 37:20
  Peter Eggleston Connor: that.
• 37:21
  Matt: minimize yours.
• 37:22
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Is it into the language of cats?
• 37:25
  Tad Eggleston: Yep.
• 37:26
  Tad Eggleston: Yep. I managed to come back, but yeah, Eddie…
• 37:30
  Matt: It was very timely and appropriate.
• 37:32
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 37:32
  Tad Eggleston: I was.
• 37:33
  Dillon Gilbertson: I didn't understand the story. I did not understand the language of cats.
• 37:36
  Matt: I didn't.
• 37:37
  Tad Eggleston: Are you supposed to?
• 37:38
  Dillon Gilbertson: like, well, Randolph did.
• 37:41
  Dillon Gilbertson: Randolph Carter clearly understood it.
• 37:43
  Matt: Yeah.
• 37:46
  Matt: Again, though, Thank God it was only 2 pages.
• 37:49
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, another, another…
• 37:50
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I do really like the art, I mean…
• 37:53
  Tad Eggleston: this past.
• 37:54
  Tad Eggleston: Really pretty two pages.
• 37:58
  Matt: Yeah, it could have been, but cats don't care, so… Yeah, it was okay.
• 38:04
  Peter Eggleston Connor: But, yeah, no, I can't say that it makes a lot of sense to me.
• 38:14
  Dillon Gilbertson: How do you like living with a face-hugging hand creature on your face?
• 38:17
  Matt: Gives good alien.
• 38:18
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yes, good alien? What?
• 38:24
  Peter Eggleston Connor: You know… like… Nevermind.
• 38:28
  Dillon Gilbertson: But on his face?
• 38:30
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah.
• 38:31
  Matt: It's weird.
• 38:32
  Peter Eggleston Connor: He gives good, like, he get the… nevermind.
• 38:36
  Peter Eggleston Connor: You know what's g-doing, Dylan.
• 38:38
  Dillon Gilbertson: It seems like… well, it seems more like the…
• 38:40
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Alien.
• 38:40
  Dillon Gilbertson: It seems more like the facehugger should be saying, Sain gives good heads.
• 38:45
  Matt: Exactly.
• 38:46
  Dillon Gilbertson: That's… I don't understand it this way, this way's weird.
• 38:50
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, but, but the facehugger is actually giving him an alien, right?
• 38:55
  Matt: I guess?
• 38:57
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Nevermind.
• 38:59
  Matt: Did anyone read Gmail?
• 39:01
  Dillon Gilbertson: No.
• 39:02
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I probably did, but it's been over a month, so…
• 39:07
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I cannot remember any of it.
• 39:09
  Dillon Gilbertson: I say, nay.
• 39:12
  Matt: Alright, we'll skip that then. Oh, Pat and Vivian. I thought this was actually funny.
• 39:21
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, I do remember this one. This one was great.
• 39:24
  Matt: Yeah, what is it, a 3-pager?
• 39:26
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah, this was a good little… good little joke. Good little homie joke.
• 39:30
  Matt: Yeah.
• 39:32
  Matt: And she's like, whaa?
• 39:36
  Matt: It's funny.
• 39:38
  Dillon Gilbertson: It's funny, it's a good, it's a good joke. Good, wholesome joke.
• 39:41
  Matt: Yup?
• 39:46
  Matt: Yeah.
• 39:46
  Peter Eggleston Connor: away.
• 39:48
  Matt: And the art is perfect stylistically for this type of story, so…
• 39:52
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yep, looks like a Saturday morning cartoon, or a… .
• 39:56
  Matt: A short between cartoons.
• 39:58
  Dillon Gilbertson: Like, the what's… what's it called?
• 39:59
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That reminds me of, Mad Magazine a little bit.
• 40:02
  Dillon Gilbertson: Tonies in the paper.
• 40:04
  Matt: Yeah.
• 40:05
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yep.
• 40:05
  Matt: Yeah, no notes, I love that one.
• 40:08
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yep.
• 40:08
  Peter Eggleston Connor: No, no, that one was great.
• 40:11
  Dillon Gilbertson: Why is this… why is Cthulhu spelled the way we normally spell it here, but in the Cthulhu story, it's K-T-U-L-U? Is that a thing that I don't understand?
• 40:21
  Tad Eggleston: Mobile City.
• 40:22
  Matt: I wondered that.
• 40:23
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I think they're actually two different creatures.
• 40:25
  Dillon Gilbertson: Are they?
• 40:26
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Because, if you remember…
• 40:28
  Matt: True.
• 40:28
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Cthulhu, they shoot at Cthulhu, and I'm pretty sure Cthulhu is actually not…
• 40:34
  Matt: The… the squid thing.
• 40:36
  Dillon Gilbertson: -
• 40:37
  Matt: I'm not… I am not a Lovecraft expert by any means, so…
• 40:42
  Tad Eggleston: But also, how many different ways did Mobius spell Arzak?
• 40:47
  Matt: Yeah, exactly.
• 40:51
  Peter Eggleston Connor: But… I think there was a Katuzu. I'm not…
• 40:56
  Dillon Gilbertson: Cthulhu or Cthulhu? Oh, apparently… Apparently, Cthulhu is just… the phonetic spelling of Cthulhu.
• 41:04
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, well.
• 41:04
  Matt: What is the same?
• 41:06
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 41:06
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That was the same. I was wrong.
• 41:10
  Dillon Gilbertson: The name has many alternate spellings, including Cthulhu, Tulu, and Cthulhu.
• 41:18
  Dillon Gilbertson: So, yeah.
• 41:19
  Matt: Tuloo, Cthulhu, I wanna do you.
• 41:25
  Matt: Sorry.
• 41:28
  Peter Eggleston Connor: No, that's right. Then, like, this is the second part of Dunwich Horror, where they got the investigators chasing it all down.
• 41:36
  Matt: Yes, and honestly, if it… If they had left this.
• 41:41
  Matt: just a continuation of the first part. We would have gotten to the awesome reveal here.
• 41:47
  Matt: And I wouldn't have lost interest.
• 41:49
  Matt: But since they split it up, I was like, then I had to go back to it, and go.
• 41:53
  Matt: So…
• 41:55
  Tad Eggleston: It is really, really nice.
• 41:58
  Matt: Yes, it is!
• 41:59
  Tad Eggleston: art, though.
• 42:00
  Matt: Yes! It's phenomenal!
• 42:04
  Tad Eggleston: Interesting decision to split it up.
• 42:06
  Matt: Yeah, this is that, okay, do I want Netflix to release the whole season at a time, or episode weekly?
• 42:14
  Matt: I want the whole season in Italian! Don't make me wait!
• 42:26
  Matt: But all in all, it was good. I liked it.
• 42:35
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yep, yep.
• 42:39
  Matt: Another ad.
• 42:40
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Another ad, yeah.
• 42:43
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Then we have bad breath.
• 42:45
  Matt: Oh yeah, bad breath. This was hilarious.
• 42:48
  Dillon Gilbertson: Bad breath.
• 42:51
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Can't… can't, can't get any ladies, because it's got bad breath.
• 42:55
  Matt: Yeah, I just don't understand why he's the one that has to drink the love potion.
• 43:02
  Matt: I thought you were supposed to give the love potion to the person you wanted to love you.
• 43:06
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Nope.
• 43:07
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Clearly, it's a pheromone that attracts people to you.
• 43:12
  Matt: Okay.
• 43:14
  Matt: But, it also puts a demon inside of you. I was like, that potion is doing extra work.
• 43:19
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yep, that… that potion, like, all the pheromones comes from the demon that gets put inside you.
• 43:25
  Matt: Yeah, it's… That was intact.
• 43:27
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I tried to, like, get some, thugs to.
• 43:31
  Matt: Yeah, beat the demon out of him, and they just rob him, and I was like, that's funny as hell.
• 43:38
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Then he's eating the demon's ass if the demon is coming out of him.
• 43:43
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Sorry, bad joke.
• 43:44
  Matt: No, it was funny, because it's true.
• 43:54
  Matt: I wonder if the belly dancer, ever came back.
• 44:01
  Matt: But, like, did he hire her again?
• 44:08
  Tad Eggleston: I mean, that would be a little awkward.
• 44:12
  Matt: Awkward!
• 44:13
  Tad Eggleston: Particularly because she wasn't belly dancing anymore when the demon came out of the smell.
• 44:17
  Matt: Right.
• 44:21
  Matt: I think they used the term belly dancer loosely.
• 44:25
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 44:26
  Matt: Because they didn't want to,
• 44:30
  Matt: promote prostitution, maybe? I don't know, I thought that was…
• 44:33
  Tad Eggleston: I mean, I don't feel… I don't feel like heavy metals had that sort of problem.
• 44:37
  Matt: I know, that's why I think, that's why I struggle with this.
• 44:40
  Tad Eggleston: I think that maybe the demon helped him seduce the belly dancer, but that Eamon wanted the.
• 44:48
  Matt: do his things. Yes, that makes sense.
• 44:53
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, no, I'm pretty sure that's… that's exactly what was going on, and all.
• 44:57
  Matt: Yeah, that makes the story make way more sense to me.
• 45:00
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Thank you.
• 45:00
  Tad Eggleston: I couldn't seduced the belly dancer on his own.
• 45:03
  Matt: Clearly.
• 45:09
  Matt: For sure, yeah, I like it.
• 45:16
  Dillon Gilbertson: column…
• 45:17
  Matt: Or the agony column.
• 45:21
  Dillon Gilbertson: Batman's face.
• 45:25
  Matt: Yup.
• 45:26
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I like the light flashing four times in this comic.
• 45:32
  Peter Eggleston Connor: They do… they do 4 mini panels for each flash.
• 45:38
  Matt: Oh, yeah.
• 45:41
  Dillon Gilbertson: Oh, yeah.
• 45:46
  Matt: Yep.
• 45:47
  Matt: This is… oh, geez, why should I do that?
• 45:51
  Matt: Here we go.
• 45:54
  Matt: Yeah, this is… this was a good… this was a fun one.
• 45:57
  Peter Eggleston Connor: It was, it was interesting, kind of fucked up.
• 46:03
  Tad Eggleston: Lovecraft? Heavy Metal?
• 46:06
  Matt: Stop? No.
• 46:07
  Tad Eggleston: I'm shocked.
• 46:12
  Matt: Yeah.
• 46:13
  Matt: It's good stuff.
• 46:15
  Peter Eggleston Connor: You know…
• 46:20
  Tad Eggleston: I mean, it's almost like…
• 46:21
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Thank you.
• 46:22
  Tad Eggleston: Take one fucked up thing and put it together with another fucked up thing, you don't get a not-fucked-up thing.
• 46:31
  Matt: Like, they cancel each other out?
• 46:35
  Tad Eggleston: You know what I mean?
• 46:36
  Peter Eggleston Connor: A bunch of stuff that was only semi-fucked up.
• 46:39
  Tad Eggleston: Okay, that's fair.
• 46:43
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I mean, this is pretty much like, oh, hey, you, like, got a date with this girl, and you went to go meet her, and then you both got abducted, and she was dissected in front of you.
• 46:59
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Tell me that's not fucked up.
• 47:03
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, and then… I think they lobotomized him?
• 47:07
  Matt: Well, it's not not fucked up.
• 47:17
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I mean, I'm not even fully sure, like…
• 47:20
  Peter Eggleston Connor: And don't get me wrong, I mostly know about the Lovecraft monster, so if there's other writings of his, it's… it's…
• 47:28
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Not as well of my purview, but…
• 47:33
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I'm not even sure where the Lovecraft element really comes in with this one, that's kind of where I'm at.
• 47:38
  Dillon Gilbertson: New…
• 47:39
  Matt: It's just a horror story.
• 47:41
  Dillon Gilbertson: It's more juice Every day, it's your everyday fucked-upness.
• 47:45
  Peter Eggleston Connor: No, it's… it's a… it's a…
• 47:47
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, I mean, it's like… it's more adjacent to, like, real-world fucked-up-ness than…
• 47:55
  Matt: Well, crafty and fucked-up-ness.
• 47:58
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yep.
• 47:59
  Matt: Yeah, yeah, I feel that.
• 48:02
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh.
• 48:04
  Peter Eggleston Connor: There's also that.
• 48:10
  Matt: There's just a lot.
• 48:14
  Peter Eggleston Connor: What?
• 48:15
  Dillon Gilbertson: Is this the last one?
• 48:17
  Matt: I think so.
• 48:17
  Peter Eggleston Connor: one.
• 48:19
  Dillon Gilbertson: Trying to remember what other story comes after this.
• 48:22
  Matt: Give me one second here, sorry.
• 48:23
  Peter Eggleston Connor: There's no story after this.
• 48:24
  Dillon Gilbertson: Very good.
• 48:25
  Matt: Nope, it was the last one.
• 48:28
  Dillon Gilbertson: I feel like we ripped through that really fast.
• 48:30
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Man.
• 48:31
  Matt: Yeah, an hour.
• 48:33
  Peter Eggleston Connor: If that.
• 48:35
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Probably closer to, like, 45 minutes.
• 48:43
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yep. So, I guess we gotta go through and do the… do the thing?
• 48:47
  Dillon Gilbertson: Well, I guess we gotta do the thing now.
• 48:50
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Thing now. You know, talk about our favorite panels and favorite… oh, wait, I don't think there's any ongoing in this entire issue.
• 48:58
  Matt: Oh, totally not.
• 48:59
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Does it count if they split it up into two sections?
• 49:03
  Dillon Gilbertson: Oh, God.
• 49:04
  Matt: Perfectly.
• 49:04
  Dillon Gilbertson: It was the… well, then… well, the second one was not an ongoing, that was the conclusion.
• 49:11
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Right, but it would be part of an argument.
• 49:12
  Dillon Gilbertson: Part of the ongoing, yeah.
• 49:14
  Matt: Oh, no.
• 49:16
  Peter Eggleston Connor: So, first part…
• 49:18
  Dillon Gilbertson: I think Dunwish Horror has to be everybody's favorite ongoing, yeah.
• 49:23
  Dillon Gilbertson: By default, it's everybody's favorite.
• 49:25
  Matt: Yeah.
• 49:26
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Give it ongoing.
• 49:27
  Dillon Gilbertson: Well, congratulations, Dunwich, you did it. You got into our favorites.
• 49:34
  Matt: Live right in there.
• 49:39
  Dillon Gilbertson: I think you are the only one that has access to that document, Tad.
• 49:42
  Tad Eggleston: I'm pulling it up right now.
• 49:47
  Tad Eggleston: It's been a while.
• 49:55
  Tad Eggleston: There we go.
• 50:09
  Tad Eggleston: October.
• 50:13
  Tad Eggleston: 1979.
• 50:16
  Tad Eggleston: No ongoing, so we go straight to story. Alright, guys.
• 50:21
  Tad Eggleston: Favorite stories… I'm gonna sit this one out, just because I… I didn't…
• 50:27
  Tad Eggleston: My brain isn't doing well enough.
• 50:30
  Tad Eggleston: So it's just gonna…
• 50:31
  Matt: Fair enough.
• 50:32
  Tad Eggleston: Through you.
• 50:33
  Matt: I'm going with KTulu by Mobius.
• 50:37
  Matt: That's my favorite story.
• 50:39
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I'm gonna go with the thing.
• 50:42
  Matt: That was my very close second.
• 50:46
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yup.
• 50:49
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Are we skipping recurring this week?
• 50:51
  Matt: Yes.
• 50:52
  Tad Eggleston: Yes.
• 50:53
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Dylan, what's your favorite story, though?
• 50:57
  Matt: He's muted. I don't think he knows.
• 51:00
  Matt: He's talking, but we can't hear.
• 51:01
  Dillon Gilbertson: It's either… it's really close, it's either the first story.
• 51:07
  Dillon Gilbertson: what was it, Final Justice, or whatever?
• 51:10
  Dillon Gilbertson: Or… or that, like, short poem.
• 51:13
  Dillon Gilbertson: About things crouching in your living room.
• 51:16
  Matt: That was the next one.
• 51:18
  Dillon Gilbertson: Was that the very next story?
• 51:20
  Peter Eggleston Connor: It's not putting in this week, you just get to have two.
• 51:23
  Matt: Oh, no, it wasn't the next one. Dunwich Horror was the next one.
• 51:26
  Dillon Gilbertson: Idiot.
• 51:31
  Tad Eggleston: You can have them both. You can take my spot.
• 51:35
  Tad Eggleston: I'm down with that.
• 51:38
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I mean, we play whatever rules we want to anyways, right?
• 51:41
  Tad Eggleston: That's true.
• 51:43
  Dillon Gilbertson: No, I didn't really like the end of the poem one. I'm gonna go with the final justice, or whatever it was called.
• 51:48
  Matt: Nice.
• 51:50
  Matt: It was a good story.
• 51:51
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That was a good story. I did like that.
• 51:54
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 51:57
  Tad Eggleston: Mmm.
• 51:58
  Peter Eggleston Connor: A lot of good stories.
• 52:02
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Not really any good.
• 52:03
  Matt: Reminiscent of that Archive 81. Have you guys seen that on Netflix?
• 52:07
  Dillon Gilbertson: Archive 81.
• 52:09
  Matt: Yeah.
• 52:10
  Dillon Gilbertson: No.
• 52:11
  Matt: Alright, wow.
• 52:14
  Matt: I'm gonna…
• 52:14
  Dillon Gilbertson: by, then.
• 52:16
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Can I just play all of Necronomicon for my favorite panel?
• 52:20
  Matt: Yukon?
• 52:24
  Peter Eggleston Connor: What?
• 52:25
  Matt: You can, why not?
• 52:27
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Nuh-
• 52:28
  Matt: It was pretty dope.
• 52:34
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I mean, if you're talking about H.P. Lovecraft, it's like… Fantastic.
• 52:38
  Dillon Gilbertson: Alrighty.
• 52:39
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Lovecraftian.
• 52:40
  Matt: Oh, yeah, I did pass it. Which one are we doing?
• 52:45
  Matt: There we go.
• 52:47
  Dillon Gilbertson: There you go.
• 52:48
  Matt: Yeah.
• 52:50
  Matt: Yeah, this whole thing was pretty cool. It reminds me of, like, Leonardo da Vinci's… Books.
• 53:00
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, that makes… yeah. I mean, like, that… that… It definitely does that.
• 53:06
  Matt: God.
• 53:06
  Peter Eggleston Connor: While also still, like, having to, like… Gibberish scribbling.
• 53:11
  Matt: Makes it like.
• 53:11
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Hard to read.
• 53:13
  Matt: Yup.
• 53:18
  Dillon Gilbertson: I'm gonna second that for favorite panel.
• 53:21
  Peter Eggleston Connor: It's just Necronomica.
• 53:23
  Dillon Gilbertson: On the.
• 53:24
  Tad Eggleston: Well, I mean…
• 53:27
  Tad Eggleston: That makes sense, it's Drew A. Never, ever, EVER give up an opportunity to back Drew A.
• 53:38
  Tad Eggleston: It's almost like you're related or have a fiduciary, stake, Dylan, I'm just saying.
• 53:48
  Matt: He gets… he gets the nickel deposit for saying the name.
• 53:51
  Dillon Gilbertson: Right.
• 53:52
  Tad Eggleston: I mean, it makes sense with Matt and Corbin. I don't think that's a relationship, that's just Matt likes dick.
• 54:00
  Matt: Oh, man, drawings of dick. Drawings of dick.
• 54:03
  Matt: well done drawings of Dick.
• 54:07
  Matt: And boobs!
• 54:09
  Tad Eggleston: It takes him back to his elementary school days, and the sketches that he did, and the margins of all of his notebooks.
• 54:17
  Matt: And my Boy Scout days? Yeah. Boy Scout years, Scoutmaster van.
• 54:25
  Matt: Anyway… My favorite panel is this one right here, the…
• 54:30
  Dillon Gilbertson: this one.
• 54:30
  Matt: Monster from the…
• 54:31
  Peter Eggleston Connor: A reveal. I'm like, horror.
• 54:35
  Matt: I love that. I like that.
• 54:36
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That was a really good one.
• 54:38
  Matt: Yeah.
• 54:41
  Tad Eggleston: pages that…
• 54:43
  Matt: Hey, Nim!
• 54:46
  Matt: It is Paige… 79, bottom panel.
• 54:55
  Matt: And it's, like, 3 quarters of the page, 2 thirds anyway.
• 55:02
  Tad Eggleston: Cool, cool.
• 55:09
  Tad Eggleston: Well, we've discovered once again that the key to having a tight episode of 22 panels is to have me involved as little as possible. I'm the…
• 55:21
  Tad Eggleston: I'm the seed of all tangents.
• 55:27
  Matt: That's alright.
• 55:28
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Seriously.
• 55:28
  Matt: Maybe that's, maybe that'.
• 55:29
  Peter Eggleston Connor: That's half of the.
• 55:30
  Matt: Trump, Dad.
• 55:31
  Tad Eggleston: It might be.
• 55:32
  Peter Eggleston Connor: We're also not, like, reading Metal Hurlamp 4 and discussing that, otherwise this probably would have been longer.
• 55:40
  Tad Eggleston: Yeah.
• 55:41
  Tad Eggleston: Yeah, we have done metal errlons lately, and those are definitely longer.
• 55:45
  Matt: Yeah, this was only 100 feet.
• 55:46
  Tad Eggleston: Amazing.
• 55:48
  Matt: This was only 100 pages with ads and other stuff. I mean…
• 55:51
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 55:52
  Matt: Not super long.
• 55:55
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Nope.
• 55:57
  Peter Eggleston Connor: We could do metal hairline 4 next time.
• 56:01
  Tad Eggleston: So…
• 56:03
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Morphine…
• 56:05
  Matt: Oh, maybe I should say this is my favorite panel.
• 56:08
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 56:09
  Matt: No.
• 56:10
  Tad Eggleston: And…
• 56:11
  Matt: The end!
• 56:13
  Tad Eggleston: Didn't we… didn't one of you do that for… for the bad translation in 1996?
• 56:20
  Matt: Maybe some… I don't know, I don't remember.
• 56:22
  Tad Eggleston: It's funny, though.
• 56:25
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I don't know if we ever… Did we?
• 56:28
  Tad Eggleston: he just…
• 56:29
  Peter Eggleston Connor: How am I doing? That's a great joke.
• 56:31
  Matt: It is a good joke, I like that.
• 56:33
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I… I think we, like, at least made mention of it, but I'm not sure that we actually selected it.
• 56:41
  Peter Eggleston Connor: But maybe if that issue was just particularly not… or wasn't particularly good, we might have…
• 56:47
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Just for the laughs.
• 56:54
  Tad Eggleston: I am nearly down for the count, so Matt, you want to take us out?
• 56:59
  Matt: Alright.
• 56:59
  Tad Eggleston: Otherwise, there'll be nobody to stop the recording.
• 57:02
  Matt: enough. I was gonna say, should we preview the next issue, but apparently we're just gonna continue after.
• 57:07
  Tad Eggleston: I don't even know if we've decided for certain if the next issue's gonna be…
• 57:13
  Tad Eggleston: The next heavy metal, or the next metal hurlat?
• 57:17
  Tad Eggleston: For that matter, we're 3-ishes beyond on new heavy metal, it's just been hard to get them into everybody's hands.
• 57:24
  Matt: Yeah…
• 57:27
  Peter Eggleston Connor: There's that.
• 57:29
  Tad Eggleston: I mean, if you guys want to decide that.
• 57:31
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Send us free… free copies!
• 57:34
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Do it!
• 57:35
  Matt: I wish…
• 57:36
  Tad Eggleston: At least… at least PDFs.
• 57:39
  Matt: Yeah!
• 57:40
  Matt: It's so wonderful.
• 57:41
  Tad Eggleston: I paid for the physical and the digital.
• 57:44
  Tad Eggleston: But the digital is, like, only on the website, and in a proprietary frame that makes it impossible to read on the website anyway.
• 57:54
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I think I paid for the physical, I don't remember if I paid for the digital, too, so…
• 57:59
  Tad Eggleston: Yeah.
• 58:01
  Peter Eggleston Connor: So they are getting money.
• 58:03
  Tad Eggleston: Yeah?
• 58:05
  Tad Eggleston: They've got him plenty of money. So Matt's pulling up the next old heavy metal, and it's got a cool enough cover, I'm willing to say we're doing it next. I like the Tiger.
• 58:14
  Matt: Can I just give you a little background? This is Joe Jusco's second cover for Heavy Metal, and it's a wrap-around cover, and it's the first time they showed nipples on the cover.
• 58:24
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I was gonna say… You like the tiger, and I like the woman, so, you know.
• 58:31
  Matt: I like the woman, too. Peter, I'm in your corner!
• 58:35
  Matt: Dylan!
• 58:36
  Tad Eggleston: See, see, it's green.
• 58:41
  Tad Eggleston: Hmm.
• 58:43
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Or maybe…
• 58:44
  Matt: One way, you're like a pussy.
• 58:50
  Dillon Gilbertson: Like this big tree thing in the background.
• 58:53
  Matt: Oh, fair enough, alright.
• 58:57
  Peter Eggleston Connor: This is why Dylan can never share his.
• 59:00
  Matt: discussion.
• 59:01
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Metal Magazine with anybody.
• 59:03
  Dillon Gilbertson: It's true.
• 59:07
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Bye.
• 59:08
  Peter Eggleston Connor: wife's like, how was your book club? He's like, oh, it was boring, you wouldn't like it.
• 59:16
  Dillon Gilbertson: She sits, maybe 7 feet away from me and listens to this whole thing every time we do it.
• 59:22
  Matt: Has he really?
• 59:22
  Dillon Gilbertson: Yeah.
• 59:24
  Tad Eggleston: So… so… Hi, Dylan's wife. I'm generally not the dirty one, that's Matt.
• 59:30
  Matt: That's me.
• 59:32
  Matt: I don't own it, I don't care.
• 59:34
  Peter Eggleston Connor: I don't help with that either.
• 59:36
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Whatever.
• 59:39
  Matt: Oh, hilarious.
• 59:41
  Tad Eggleston: So are you previewing more, or…
• 59:44
  Matt: I was gonna, but I lost it for some reason.
• 59:46
  Tad Eggleston: Yeah, you seem to have.
• 59:47
  Matt: Oh, that's why.
• 59:57
  Matt: Marks?
• 1:00:00
  Peter Eggleston Connor: the… We lost it.
• 1:00:02
  Matt: There we go. Let me upload this mother again.
• 1:00:08
  Peter Eggleston Connor: And there we go.
• 1:00:09
  Matt: And here we go.
• 1:00:11
  Peter Eggleston Connor: There is a very bare-ass naked man on one of those pages.
• 1:00:16
  Matt: I was not.
• 1:00:17
  Tad Eggleston: Must be Corbyn.
• 1:00:18
  Matt: here.
• 1:00:19
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Must be gorgeous.
• 1:00:24
  Matt: Hilarious.
• 1:00:28
  Matt: Alright, here's the back cover.
• 1:00:30
  Tad Eggleston: Lots of white space.
• 1:00:33
  Dillon Gilbertson: Hell yeah, some wraparound. More trees!
• 1:00:36
  Matt: Yes, that's why it's Jusco, man, it's awesome!
• 1:00:41
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Chicks and pussy.
• 1:00:42
  Matt: he actually.
• 1:00:43
  Dillon Gilbertson: Breeze, guys!
• 1:00:45
  Dillon Gilbertson: The trees…
• 1:00:45
  Tad Eggleston: I like the things coming out of the egg.
• 1:00:48
  Peter Eggleston Connor: the chat.
• 1:00:49
  Matt: Oh, they're cool.
• 1:00:51
  Matt: But that makes you ask, is it one thing, or is it two things? And how do two things come out of one egg?
• 1:00:55
  Tad Eggleston: And… Let me, let me make it…
• 1:01:01
  Peter Eggleston Connor: This is, like, long-necked lizard here, too, and that's kinda cool.
• 1:01:06
  Tad Eggleston: I mean, I guess it could be a double-headed alien thingy rather than… I think.
• 1:01:14
  Dillon Gilbertson: A Middle Earth album?
• 1:01:17
  Dillon Gilbertson: Great Hall pushing the orcs arrived.
• 1:01:19
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Alright, Matt, if you have… if you have this heavy metal, you need to go send in for that.
• 1:01:24
  Matt: Yeah, I wish I could, I would.
• 1:01:26
  Dillon Gilbertson: Earth album. I want… I want to know about…
• 1:01:28
  Matt: I do have it, and I would if I could, believe me.
• 1:01:31
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, I'm just kidding.
• 1:01:33
  Dillon Gilbertson: I'm gonna…
• 1:01:33
  Tad Eggleston: 4 for 10 cents membership.
• 1:01:38
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Here's the contents, we got Corbin.
• 1:01:40
  Tad Eggleston: Yeah, we got some Corbin.
• 1:01:43
  Peter Eggleston Connor: We got some more air.

  Tad Eggleston: airtight garage.
• 1:01:46
  Matt: Got some more Voss.
• 1:01:49
  Tad Eggleston: Charles Vest doing Homer.
• 1:01:51
  Matt: Van Bode, love it.
• 1:01:53
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, we got more Homer?
• 1:01:56
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Oh, Homer's idol.
• 1:01:58
  Matt: more Michael Moorcock, Elric?
• 1:02:01
  Matt: And Frank Bruner, that's good, good stuff.
• 1:02:03
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Obvious. Oh, yeah.
• 1:02:05
  Matt: This'll be a good one, I'm glad.
• 1:02:07
  Tad Eggleston: There was some shaking in there, too.
• 1:02:10
  Matt: Yo?
• 1:02:10
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yup.
• 1:02:11
  Tad Eggleston: Star is my destination.
• 1:02:13
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Wait, didn't we have something that said something similar to that?
• 1:02:19
  Tad Eggleston: I think we might have had the first part.
• 1:02:21
  Matt: Yeah, I think this is a continuation.
• 1:02:22
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Yeah, I think that might be a con… yeah, okay. Alright.
• 1:02:25
  Peter Eggleston Connor: Well, looks exciting!
• 1:02:28
  Matt: Yep.
• 1:02:29
  Matt: Guys, it was good to see ya. Missed ya.

  Dillon Gilbertson: Thank you guys.

  Matt: Laura? Wait, I thought I already did, didn't you stop recording?
• 1:02:41
  Tad Eggleston: No.
• 1:02:42
  Matt: Oh, shit, alright, we'll continue after the next page.
