Sean burnt his fingers while making a delicious pizza. It nearly ruined his pizza-making experience, which is just about the saddest thing that can happen to a human being. How does one recover from that sort of blow?

Lee’s a huge fan of giant animal bones in museums, but she doesn’t know how large they are in the internationally recognized measurement standard of a “Lee.” How many Lees is a giant turtle hanging in whatever museum she visited? We may never know.

The pair of them come up with the scariest new horror movie since The Shining or Hereditary. Perhaps it’ll be called The Winnebagoing. Or something like that. We’ll let those Hollywood fat cats come up with the name and marketing materials for this masterpiece.

Sean has a hard time with audiobooks, mostly because he has trouble with engaging with them. He’d much prefer listening to a podcast if he’s going to listen to something. He’s got quite the podcast backlog anyway. Those have to be listened to sometime, right?

In what was streamed this time, Mother Abigail has gotten loose, and all of Boulder is on the lookout for this old woman. In Vegas, the mysterious and overly masturbatory Trashcan Man makes his first appearance. He’s tasked by Flagg with finding something that will make the biggest BOOM imaginable. Harold and Nadine have a boom of their own in the works, albeit a much smaller one. Who will fall prey to their evil schemes? Hint: it’s someone who doesn’t deserve it. (Blame Stephen King for that one, friend.)
