Hello, Carol: The Ultimate 'Plur1bus' Podcast

"CHARM OFFENSIVE" - PT02 - REALITY DATING AT ITS FINEST!! Carol and Zosia continue their whirlwind romance around the ABQ. We're off to play some croquet...or how about a couple's massage...maybe even a night of stargazing?? Reality TV show producers could not come up with more unique or TV-friendly activities if they tried. The hive has even recreated the diner where Carol wrote her first Wycaro...

"CHARM OFFENSIVE" - PT01 - THE GANG IS BACK IN THE ABQ!! After a biblical stint of 36 days alone in the desert, Carol gave up and gave in. She painted a huge "come back" in the middle of the cul-de-sac. Within minutes, she was clutching Zosia in a tearful embrace. Jets are streaming through the sky towards the Sunport. All will be back to a hive mind level of normal in just a couple of hours.  Car...

"THE GAP" - PT02 - FROM THE JUNGLES TO THE ROOFTOPS!! [NOTE: Due to some equipment issues, you may encounter static or spikes that sound like clipping at various points in this program. New gear is on the way! Rather than wait, I decided this one was acceptable. Hopefully it's not too bad for this one and the problem will be corrected by the equipment upgrade.] In the second part of this somewhat...

"THE GAP" - PT01 - AN EPIC JOURNEY BEGINS...BUT FIRST, LET'S PARTY WITH CAROL! In this unloved episode, it's time to launch Manousos on his journey from Paraguay to Albuquerque. But, before we do that, it's time to hang with Carol for a day out! First, a little golf at the ABQ Country Club. The wildlife is taking the place over, but you can still play for the time being. Carol's going to nab a new...

H.D.P. - PT03 - CHECKING IN WITH THE PARAGUAY GUY! The final fifteen minutes of "H.D.P." is spent in Paraguay. We step back in time (according to the timer that opens the segment) to the point where Manousos startts on his epic journey to Albuquerque. I felt like it was too much to add in at the end of the last podcast episode. Also, since it is so different as a scene, I felt like this segment sh...

H.D.P. - PT02 - WHOA! IS THAT JOHN CENA? This week we're hanging with Mr. D.! One of the other unjoined, the stylish ne'er do well Khoumba Diabate, has taken up residence at a palace in the sky. It's the Verona Sky Villa at the otherwise uninhabited Westgate Hotel in the also unhinhabited Las Vegas, NV.  Carol has sought out Mr. D. to tell him about this horror of cannibalism she's discovered in t...

H.D.P. - PT01 - HEY, WHATCHA EATIN' THERE? We last left Carol gasping in a dark and cold warehouse. What had she found?? Oh, we're going to find out pretty quickly. Not that anyone was all that surprised about it. They're eating people!! Carol has to tell SOMEBODY, and preferably somebody who is NOT a part of the hive mind. She decides to drive to Las Vegas. Mr. Khoumba Diabate was supposed to be...

GOT MILK - PT02 - THE HIVE MIND IS THIRSTY! Carol has a lot of sleuthing left to do this episode. Just like a southwestern Nancy Drew, she is going to discover the horrid secret of The Milk!! It all starts with throwing away your trash...because the drones sure can't do it! In the trash is where she notices the millk cartons. Which, of course, means a trip to the dairy. What's that powdered stuff...

GOT MILK - PT01 Is it possible to be SO repulsive you can force an entire city to evacuate?? Carol is about to find out she has that power. She's going to 'go it alone'...REALLY alone for the first time since the joining. The hive has bugged out of the ABQ leaving nothing but Carol and a whole lot of empty milk cartons. This is the FIRST part of the complete breakdown of the FIFTH episode of Seaso...

FINALLY! WE'RE GOING TO FIND OUT WHY THEY CALLED IT, 'PLEASE, CAROL!" Welcome back to the Ultimate breakdown of 'Plur1bus' Season One. After her talk with Larry, Carol is fairly certain the hive can't lie. She decides to help the difficult reveals along with a little Sodium Pentathol. You know...what the WW2 spies swore by as 'truth serum.' But first, Carol has to try it out on her self. The exper...

IT'S COME TO THIS...THE ENTIRE HIVE IS SAYING, 'PLEASE, CAROL!" Welcome back to the Ultimate breakdown of 'Plur1bus' Season One. In the aftermath of the grenade explosion, Zosia is in the hospital.

IT'S THE FINAL CHAPTER OF THE PIRATE LADY!! Welcome back to Part 3 of Episode TWO of 'Plur1bus' Season One. This is the final chapter of  "Pirate Lady." Carol manages to make a huge mess of the lunch Khoumba arranged. She not only insults Laxmi and chews everyone out for selling out the human race...she also causes another organism lock-up. Experiencing it first hand is not pretty. Carol passes ou...
