Transcription[]
Mord: Welcome to the Hidden Almanac, I’m Reverend Mord. Today is August 4th 2017.
It was on this day that a professor from the Ravencoast School of Divinity, having penetrated the outer defenses of the [[Thanatopic Embassy]], breached –
Drom: Mord, you made it!
Mord: Indeed. It is my belief that you are in grave danger, Drom. Where is Gurthnak the Shredder?
Drom: Oh, he'll be back in a minute. Woo. Let me introduce you to everybody! This is Phil's Turkey. I mean, well formally Phil's Turkey. He’s his own Turkey now. I guess: a free agent, a turkey ronin, beholden to no one, selling his voting machine tampering skills to the highest bidder.
Turkey: (gobbles)
Mord: That Turkey is not alive, Drom.
Drom: Don't get weird on me, Mord. Lots of people aren't alive. Like 99 point something or other 9 of people who've ever lived anren’t alive anymore! When you get right down to it, pretty much everybody’s dead.
Mord: A philosophy that would reduce one's existence to a statistical rounding error. I do not subscribe to it.
Drom: Fine, but you're a historian. Dead people are your jam!
Turkey: (gobbles)
Drom: No! Bad Turkey, no pecking! I know, he shouldn't have said that in that judgmental tone still, we don't solve our problems with pecking!
Turkey: (gobbles)
Drom: Now, apologize.
Turkey: (questioning gobble)
Drom: No, not you, Mord - Apologize to the Turkey.
Mord: I - No, we do not have time for this. We must leave before Gurthnak the Shredder returns
Drom: Mord, we are not going anywhere until you apologize to this Turkey
Mord: Turkey who formerly belonged to Phil, I apologize for my tone. Your undeath is your own affair.
Turkey: (Acknowledging gobble)
Mord: Now, Drom, where is Gurthnak the Shredder?
Drom: Well, he had to step out. Someone was trying to break into the embassy, I guess.
Mord: Shocking.
Drom: I know, right? What did the door's like right there?
Mord: Drom. I was the one who broke into the embassy.
Drom: Yeah? I see. Hmm....
Mord: You see the reason that we must leave.
Drom: Okay. This is very, very important, Mord, did you bring the potato chips?
Mord: Yes.
Drom: Woo. I've got amazing lineup. Did you know that Gurthnak has never seen anime,
Mord: Nor have I. What of it?
Drom: Ooh.
Mord: The Hidden Almanac is brought to you by Red Wombat Resistance Company, purveyors of fine and revolutionary teas. Red Wombat --- “Fight the Power.”
Drom: The Hidden Almanac will be on hiatus for two weeks while the interns are on vacation and I introduce Mord to the wonders of magical girl anime! We'll see you guys on the other side.
Mord: (Sigh)
Mord: And that's the Hidden Almanac for August 4th 2017. Be safe and remember, you are not alone. Drom: Now put on this tiara!
