#63 - Goblin Gate

Welcome to the gate! It’s locked! It's glowing! It's humming something that sounds suspiciously like the DuckTales theme backwards! And behind it? Goblins! So many goblins! In this storytelling gauntlet, each Penny Man delivers their take on a tale with just one prompt: Goblin Gate. Gregory pitches a slapstick medieval fantasy where pizza delivery scrolls are sacred texts and dumb guys get stuck doing dumber things! Ben goes off the rails into a late-night VHS noir about a washed-up DJ/cop whose trauma is animated—and goblin-shaped! And Tom? Tom’s Goblin Gate is still buffering… but when it hits, it hits weird! It’s worldbuilding without a net. Canon-breaking, genre-fusing, goblin-spawning nonsense! And somehow, it almost makes sense! 🌀 Featuring: 3 writers, 1 title 7 types of goblin (minimum) 1 detective with turntables 2 separate uses of the word “lair” A delivery boy’s code of honor A terrifying number of sound effects Open the gate! Or don’t! It’s already too late! We pitch! We derail! We goblin! Welcome back to The Penny Men!
