| 0:00.0 | Hi there, this is Kareen, the voice of Simon Fairchild of the Magnus Archives. Today, I wanted to tell you about our adorable collab with U2s. If you've listened to a lot of the Magnus Archives, you may be familiar with the Admiral, Georgie's friendly attention-seeking pet cat. Now available for a strictly limited time, you can purchase your very own plush of this cuddly cat exclusively from U-2s, available to pre-order at rustyquill.com slash U2s. The Admiral Plush is nine inches tall and combines both Jonathan Sims and Alexander Jane Yule's visions of what he might look like. This interpretation is a perfect orange tabby with a cute, friendly face and a hoodie inspired by Georgie's podcast, What the Ghost. The Admiral is available to pre-order until the 22nd of December, |
| 0:37.9 | so order soon to avoid missing out. Pre-order by visiting rustyquill.com slash U-2s. |
| 0:42.4 | That's rustyquill.com forward slash Y-O-U-T-O-O-Z. That's Y-O-U-T-O-O-Z. Have fun. Thank you for joining us for this third episode of the Magnus Archives tabletop role-playing game, The Listening Club. |
| 1:14.5 | I am Jonathan Sims, He-Hem, your most humble GM, and with me I have Anusha. |
| 1:21.1 | Hello, I'm Anusha, Pronaz She-Hur, and I am playing Margo. |
| 1:26.6 | And I have Ian. Hello, it's Ian. Ian Hales, He-Him, I am playing Margo. And I have Ian. Hello, it's Ian. Ian, Ian Hales, he, him. I'm playing Alphonse |
| 1:32.4 | Platt. I have Lory. Hello, it's Lory, she, her. I am playing Elodie Jones. And I have |
| 1:40.2 | Pip. Hello, I'm Pip, he him, and I will be playing Barry Knapp. Just good to say. |
| 1:46.2 | It is. Wonderful. Does anyone want to give us a quick rundown of where we are in the old story? |
| 1:53.3 | The Listening Club gathered together to listen to the 100th episode of the Armitish Library. It's very exciting. |
| 1:59.7 | We all sat in the cafe, had a listen. |
| 2:01.5 | Was it Mr. Clott was his name? The giant, the giant, hairy, bloody drains monster was |
| 2:10.5 | finally defeated seemingly in this episode and we were comparing notes and chatting about it |
| 2:14.7 | and seeing whether we thought he's really the big, bad, etc. But one of our members, June, who actually brought us all together and is a great |
| 2:20.7 | enthusiast, didn't show up and there was no notice whatsoever. It's very, very unusual. And then |
| 2:26.9 | we got an email through from June saying that we should come immediately because urgent things |
| 2:32.8 | were happening. We got to June's place. |
| 2:35.0 | It was on the second floor, but we tried to buzz, and there was no answer. |
| 2:38.2 | So we buzzed a very rude neighbour who did let us in when we said we had a package. |
| 2:42.6 | We got up to June's door. |
| 2:44.3 | Margot tried to lockpick a door that was already open because no one thought to test whether the door was already open. |
