Welcome to my current longest podcast episode! Today I try to explain the mythology of the Elder Scrolls games, with emphasis on try. In reality, I only get through the deities and what their shebang seems to be!

WARNING: I will be mentioning some dark topics such as suicide and rape in passing (mostly dealing with a single deity) so if that's not your cup of tea feel free to skip this episode!

In this episode, I read chapters 6 through 10 of the 1897 novel, The Invisible Man by H. G. Wells. My accents only get worse as I learn about when cock-fighting became illegal, a bunch of new words, and how I should double-check the pages as I go.

In this episode, I go through the quirks, or superpowers of characters from My Hero Academia. From the strong to the weak, to the stupid, no power is safe from my gaze (except for all the ones I didn't have time for)!

In this episode I read chapters 1 to 5 of the 1897 novel, The Invisible Man by H. G. Wells. A horror, science fiction novel that really doesn't feel like horror, you'll hear me try many terrible accents and hopefully enjoy the "soothing" sounds of my voice reading a book with words I've barely ever seen before.

In this episode I dicuss the short story, I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream, a terribly bleak sci-fi story written during the cold war. It's a really good story so the link is below if you want to read it, it's only 13 pages so it won't take much of your time and it's absolutely worth it!
