Welcome to Why Not?!, Episode 15: “Prom Night Theme: Alphalutin’ Flight”
In which we do SO MUCH voicework. And journey back 100 years to Calgary’s past and close the loop on Lucas Stang and Ranaq, the Great Devourer. Get more questions than answers on Elizabeth Twoyoungmen’s powers (normal). Spend an inordinate amount of time talking language.
In this episode, Chris:
- is shocked at how much time is spent discussing the meaning of the verb “hock”
- really doesn’t like Talisman’s costume
- delivers a great reminder vis-a-vis prophylactics
and Tom:
- edits out WAY more political jokes/comments than you’ll ever know: this was recorded in the beforetimes
- “waxes” poetic about Buckaroo Bonzai
- argues against Chris’s superhero costume sensibilities
