Binary System Podcast #350: WTNV #222 "Makarov the Magical" and Umbrella Academy

Original broadcast date February 23, 2022. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2023/02/binary-system-podcast-350-wtnv-222-makarov-the-magical-and-umbrella-academy/ Woo hoo, episode 350! We have absolutely no plans for this milestone, and when you get right down to it there's really not much special about the number except that it ends in "0". But still, woo! What IS special about this episode is that it's our first foray into using Discord for the podcast. So while we recap a Welcome To Night Vale episode involving a magic show and Cecil trying (and failing) to punch someone, and also recap an Umbrella Academy episode involving quite a bit of death (y'all, Five is scary), you can also hear the stops, starts, and occasional cut-outs when Discord decided we didn't really need to hear everything at the correct volume. We also had to call in Tech Support (ie: Nathan) to figure out why Craig wouldn't stop recording, so we've included close to two minutes of flailing in the outro. You're welcome. This week's outro is a clip from Dance Electro by Lite Saturation. Correction: We somehow missed that the Glow Cloud's child is "they". Sorry about that. The 95th Academy Awards presentation (otherwise known as the Oscar Ceremony) will take place on March 12. You can find the DC discussion with the Mid-Life Crisis Taskforce here, and the MCU discussion here. Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person? Want to buy them (or yourself) a square foot of a castle in Scotland? Look no further! You can support the restoration of Dunan's castle, legally call yourself Lady or Laird, AND if you use http://www.scottishlaird.co.uk/#_a_2gk to get there, you can support this podcast too!
