Rivermouth, by Alejandra Oliva, and Smokehead Twisted, Part 2
Michael and Ethan finish their discussion of Rivermouth, by Alejandra Oliva, while drinking Smokehead Twisted.
In this episode:
Language, Migration, Faith, Treachery, Faith, and the Great River: a Star Trek analogy that only Michael caused to happen
English as a “grabby” language
Lots of talk about God and faith and vulnerability, a lot of it not very fun to be sassy about in a bullet point (thanks guys)
De-validating pedantry (for perhaps the first time in this podcast’s history)
Deeply uneasy fart-based transitions
The Battle of Waterloo, by William McGonagall
For context, because the boys fail to give ANY, McGonagall was a Victorian poet who is often considered the worst poet in the English language
Also, McGonagall IS Cthulu
