Episode 429: RateMyBaby.com Oct 29, 2024

Show notes

Spooklore 2024 draws to a close with a reading of The Story of a Mother, which is not so much a spooky story but a terribly depressing one, from resident sad-sack, Hans Christian Andersen. Turns out, the true horror was videogames from 1993 this whole time!

Suggested talking points: The Hamburglar's Living Conditions, A Cave with Amenities, Microwave Beer, Death and Baby, Jealous of the Ocean, Follicle by Follicle, A Little Pee (As a Treat)

Suggested talking points: Spooky By Implication, Painfully Competent, Cooking is a Myth, Waiting to Magically Become Not Terrible, Porridge Was an Ask Too Far, The Spooktralizer Needs a Doctor.
