Yes, Cecil's beloved brother-in-law has taken on a dangerous new job, and Cecil has questions.After a recap were we discuss the rules of childhood games that scared the crap out of us, and also Cecil bemoaning the loss of decorum (I mean, Cloud Perverts? Really?), the Binary Podcast System team also talk about Season 3 Episode 7 of Beastars (which Kathryn hasn't seen), and the 2025 Oscar-Nominated Animated Shorts (which Elizabeth hasn't seen), and then take a brief digression to talk about The Menu, which we've both seen and talked about it at length already but come on, it just dropped on Netflix and how can we resist?This week's outro is a clip from CARAVAGGIO by hARITON zOE You can listen to our episodes about The Menu and the 2024 Oscar-Nominated Animated Shorts, we promise we didn't rehash too much about what we loved from those in today's episode.Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?
