The view, explanation and allaround story about guns really grabbed my interest and I think, opened a whole new way for me to view a scene about people clicking death-buttons at each other

Thanks for the shout out! I apologize, yes, my comment was in reference to Chad’s comment on dyslexia and the author’s history. The Black Cauldron was great, and its villain, the Horned King, was an unexpected find in a Disney movie, as he bore a likeness to Stephen King’s Crimson King from the Dark Tower series. As far as recommendations, I still think you guys need to go back and play through Bloodborne, or at the very least, watch some lore videos on it. To this day, it remains one of, if not the best, games with cosmic horror elements, and it pains me that lovers of the genre missed it entirely. Since Vampire Hunter D was mentioned. I’d encourage you to watch bloodlust. As far as opening an investigation into Chad and his association and involvement with that monster, THE Lying Vincent Price, and the atrocities that he’s brought upon the world… no promises!

Chris, sorry, but one more correction: Job's wife is not taken from him. Some see it as one aspect of his undeserved punishment that she's still there to berate him - make of that what you will!

I partially agree with Chad with guns in the entertainment mediums, but with caveat of sci-fi. For instance the Ghost in the Shell manga and its recent anime adaptation uses guns heavily (the creator obviously has a love for them) but since the mc is bionically enhanced she uses such weapons that go beyond even gun-fu films and Wick.

That or gunpowder fantasy novels

I’d say the only time they gave a detailed badass scene in the Bible for a woman character was the one where she killed an enemy general by driving a tent spike into his head while he slept—which you can also make that as you will.

Serious suggestion for bonus episodes: more live plays of the Strange Stories game, but rather than just a two-man operation, drag Heather or Rachel or the boys or Grieg or Paul McLean or whoever into the mix and make a proper game of it. I get that you don't want to have a full Critical Role 4 hour session, most likely want to keep run times to a half hour to forty-five minutes so maybe you wouldn't get a whole scenario played with that many participants. But even just a scene or two with a big(ger) group would be great.

Oh! I meant to add this comment on the episode, but l’d never come across this usage of “fey” either. Just so you know you’re not alone on that one! I do find the idea of “they’re going to die, they will definitely speak the truth” to be disturbing in a “justification for torture” kind of way.

The Go Motion technique of Dragon Slayer was developed by none other than Phil Tippett (I believe you did a bonus episode on Mad God last year?). This technique was intended to be the effects approach for Jurassic Park until CGI became a viable alternative during preproduction

Agatha Christie loves to use "fey" (though she sometimes spells it "fay") either to describe a character who is going to get murdered, or when other characters recall what someone was like shortly before dying. She also frequently used the word "fey" across different spellings as a shorthand when describing someone (usually Irish or Scottish) with second sight or some other mild supernatural ability. Based on that I get the sense she knew what the word was supposed to mean, but didn't care that much for accuracy so long as she could fir it to the vibe she wanted.

Pagurus

Well spotted! I guess that would be Jael killing Sisera. There is a quite similar story about Judith killing Holofernes (albeit by beheading him).

Off topic, but with a Lovecraft connection via Brown Jenkin: A June 2026 Mental Floss article about the history of common nicknames explains that Jenkin was the diminutive version used by medieval Normans for Jonathon, like "little Jonathon". I now imagine Kaziah Mason meeting (or making?) a nuzzling, brown-furred man-rodent named Jonathon and he being so adorable and endearing to her to earn his pet moniker. Here's the section on Jack being a John/Jonathon nickname, and its connection to Jenkin. "The name Jack dates back to about 1200 and was originally used as a generic name for peasants. Over time, Jack worked his way into words such as lumberjack and steeplejack. Even jackass, the commonly used term for a donkey, retains its generic essence in the word Jack. "Of course, John was once used as a generic name for English commoners and peasants (John Doe), which could be why Jack became his nickname. But the more likely explanation is that Normans added -kin when they wanted to make a diminutive. And Jen was their way of saying John. So little John became Jenkin and time turned that into Jakin, which ultimately became Jack." Israel, David K. and Eden Gordon, The Origin of 11 Nicknames, Mentalfloss.com, 22 June 2026.

It's never said that Job forgives God, he simply refuses to tell him to f*ck off...and I the end repents of everything having questioned his will. Which isn't quite the same thing. Another thing I found fascinating about the story of Job is that it is not from one of the 12 Tribes of Israel. Job is from one of the other off shoots of Abraham's children, I forget which because it's been a bazillion years. I just thought it was crazy it made it into the Bible at all.
