Episode 512: The Spiders Pay For Themselves

In the Mythos Hut we decide that fish people and serpent folk have hogged the spotlight for too long. It’s time for us to invent some humanoid toads, of the psychedelic variety of course, and wrap them into a Fall of DELTA GREEN scenario hook.

Inevitably, Fun With Science must grapple, so to speak, with the advent of necrobotic spiders. A request from beloved Patreon backer Evan Hughes, and some superglue, makes that happen.

In the Narrative Hut we explore the rural tilt of the fantasy genre.

Finally in the Eliptony Hut we check out psychic Uri Geller’s recently declared micronation off the coast of Scotland.
