150 untrained lions, tigers, leopards, and other large dangerous cats living under one roof alongside humans.

Whatever it is, there's certainly nothing quite like 1981's Roar!

Truth is elusive, it's nowhere to be found. What can be found, however, is this week's episode of the Spoderpod! The Persona games are a unique blend of JRPG and visual novel elements wrapped in a coat of Jungian psychology. What is the Midnight Channel, and why do people who show up on it disappear? Who's the killer staking the sleepy town of Inaba? Which song is better, "Reach Out to the Truth"...
