I like to think that I was ahead of the curve when it came to putting questionable requests for unfettered telescope time on ArXiv:
arxiv.org/abs/2003.13879

So it's interesting to see the rest of the field catching up.

I've not heard of it, and neither has my wife (so that suggests it's not too Australian)

Ok, hope you get it worked out easily and if it helps to verify it's working on pocketcasts (my preferred app) by having someone check, just ask. (I always find the apps i don't use more of a headache to check than the web stuff)

And maybe it's been like that and i just didn't notice before. Totally possible i didn't.

Congrats on the milestone.
Though i wanted to ask, it lists 476 episodes there, but I noticed on pocketcasts yesterday I only see your last 100 episodes (other podcasts don't have that 100 ep cutoff for me).
Hope this doesn't feel like raining on the well-earned parade, just was looking for backlog

At a comedy show called popular kids club. And the stamp to verify they checked my ticket says "I'm a popular kid".
It took four attempts to get that stamp to work on me and not sure if that's the stamp rejecting me or my skin rejecting social status.
Could be either, really.

I liked it better when I thought this was literal and just sorta crazy. Not just vanilla moral panic.
Time cube may have made me set my standards too high for societal internet rants.

I'm presuming this means being on earlyish in one line-up and late in the other since they're like 20 minutes apart. If so, do you know which end of that The Offbeat Bar will be?

As is deserved. Box costumes are often overlooked, imo, and they should get more credit

I'm wondering if all this is somehow linked to John Kellogg, his corn flakes, and his weird thing about a "simple, pure and unstimulating diet" to suppress sexual desire.

My pitch: it's actually pumice with a lead base so that it's just slightly denser than water overall.

I hope that there was someone with a Betamax costume that you beat in costume contest

"Vegetable Warfare" feels like it'd be a recurring theme for your show

So the thing with Montezooma's Revenge being a terrifying roller coaster for a kid (imo) was that it's a launch coaster that launches from the station. So I remember waiting in line, not able to see much, but just hearing that launch out of the station we were standing in every couple minutes.

Between the Mystery Lodge episode, this, and a certain unreleased episode, Knott's is getting way more attention on Wild Mouse than I'd have thought it would.

Great podcast, great guest, and great ride so it should be a great episode.

That's the amazing part about rapture predictions, both sides will be disappointed.

There are several places that I know I've just rotated through passwords because I'll forget what it was and then just end up changing it enough times I can get back to something I remember.
Which stemmed from places expecting me to remember their idiosyncrasies after months of not logging in
