Hello from the Magic Tavern. A weekly podcast from the Magical Land of Foon. I'm your host Arneenie Camp. If you haven't listened to the podcast before, this is what you need to know.

Many months ago, I fell through a dimensional portal behind a Burger King into the Magical Land of Foon. Luckily, I'm still getting a slight Wi-Fi signal from the Burger King. I sink through the dimensional riff that I fell through.

And I'm using that to upload a podcast that I record every week here in the Tavern, the Vermilion Minotaur, in the Town of Hogsface, in the Land of Foon. And I'm joined as always by my Goon Companion.

I am Usador, Wizard of the Twelfth Realm of a Fesiest Master of Light and Shadow, manipulator of Magical Delights, devour of Chaos, champion of the Great Holes of Tarakas, the Elves Nunez, Fying Yalak, the Dwarves Nomez, Zodyn and Hook Stangies, and I am known in the Northeast as Guest Mwaynez Maystar, and oh, believe me, friends.

Hear me now. There are so many secret names of great power and wonder and magic that I shouldn't have revealed to you. Yay! If you were to come up to me and ask me, or an oar, and oar again, I would never respond. Tightly, Lypt Usador would remain as he kept those names secrets, making sure that all are protected from the power and the magic of my name!

I'm contractually bound, not interrupt you anymore, and I feel like you're really pushing it. You get longer and longer. Am I? Hey, how about my other buddy? Hey, John, how you doing? I'm alright, I'm a little, a little weirder, little sad. Oh, what's going on, Chuchu? There's this old woman in town that I really enjoy her name for Becca with a K, and last night they found her dead. She's just a little old lady.

She got medilated late last night. What happened? What a sad story. She's a little old lady and she got medilated late last night. That's terrible. Yeah, I don't know if it's werewolves or we don't know what it is. I'm so so sorry. Yeah, it's just a weird time to be living in Hogsface. So you're saying there's a real possible werewolf problem going on in Hogsface right now? That is literally what I just said. There are all sorts of dealings here in Hogsface.

There's the minions of the dark lord grow more bold and fearless and feel free to attack sweet old ladies. What did you like about her so much? Yeah, you really seem to enjoy her, you said? Well, come on. Hey, come on. Be respectful.

And on his defense, it is a peculiar choice of wording. No, she was just very kind to me. She would always, you know, just have like a little, you know, a little treat for me like any time I passed. She even if she didn't know it was me, if she just thought it was like a random animal, she'd give me a treat. Oh, so she's just constantly feeding animals. Yeah.

Yeah. Mm-hmm. Oh, that's probably why I wear with a tag tag. Probably. Is she? She's the greatest treat of all. Yes. Here's a milk bone where will my friend you guys come on. No, no, I'm sorry. What was it? Her name is Rebecca with a K Rebecca with a K? Is that really that hard to swallow? Have we told you about milk bones? Yeah, your name is Arnie Meekamp and you can't fathom a world in which there's a Rebecca with a K 100% honestly. When I think I probably like my brain process that wrong like I?

I thought the K it's so simple. K R E B E C C A K. Yes. Oh, what's so hard about that? Oh, totally. Then that makes that makes that makes total. That makes total. That makes total sense. Hey guys. Um, I think we should just we should talk to our guests. Yeah, I mean, I'll be fine. There's no need to check in with me. I don't know anything. I'm so sorry. Yeah, that's fine. Do you need do you want to talk? No, I did. But now we're past it. So I'd hug.

Hug. Alright. Hug. Hug. Hug. Real hug. They did it. I've witnessed it. You should know I have witnessed the hug. It was a one arm. What's this? One arm Pat Illinois state license. No way. He's been right. What is this? Yeah. Yeah. I was in these men on these pieces of paper. Those beautiful trees giant these green papers. Oh, that's money. That's money. That's money. It's useless here. You seem surprised that you had such a paper with men's faces. Who poops out little sheets of paper like that? Uh, the US government.

Oh, okay. Yeah. But again, we have a guest here and I don't I don't know anything about him. He just sort of I thought we were not having a guest today. I didn't I had not planned to have a guest. We were going to do a boys night. But he he just sat down at our table. He's been kind of just staring at us. Um, hello sir. Welcome. I thought that was a stretch. No, it's a guy. Hey, good. Good. How are you? I'm good. I am Yusodor and this is Arnie and Chant. Chant the talking badge.

Your slash shapeshifter. Hello. I gotta be honest. I'm not gonna be here for a long time. I'm just gonna take a seat. It's pretty busy in here today. Yeah. Oh, are you on the lamb? No. Actually searching for someone on the lamb. Oh, no. Are you like a? No, you're like a constable. No. What's the cup? A duty free. Yes. Appointed God of the realm. Also sometimes colloquially colloquially.

Thank you. Thank you for getting. Yusodor usually recovers from his strokes, but you got him out of it much faster than usual. You have to tell us if you're a cup. That's a thing. All right. Not a cup. All right.

I'm looking for this man though. Oh, is anybody recognize that man? He looks familiar. Someone likes me. It's not very. It's I gotta be honest. It's not the best drawing. It's not. It's just like an oval with two dots. People that ugly usually go to the smoldering will do.

Clear. Everyone stand up. Jesus. Are you all right? You're just stroking after strove. The smoldering widow is another tavan here and tau where the more despicable elements of our society like to drink. Yeah, a lot of unsavory character. Exactly. Do we get to just there?
