GC13 and David discuss  I’m Mitch Williams from Glitch Techs. And now you know why Mitch is the sweetest. It turns out that the true meaning of friendship was the teammates we recruited along the way. And Tech Specialist. Don’t forget him. It’s the end to Mitch’s season two character arc, but we still have one episode to go so the season (and unfortunately it looks like the...

GC13 and David discuss Hark the Gerald Sings from Summer Camp Island. We may have lost fairies from Summer Camp Island’s pantheon of magical creatures this season, but we’ve been given a new one: superstitions! Betsy gets her chance to shine by revealing to us Gerald, the unpleasant mirror life holds up to Oscar. Just make sure this episode doesn’t make you remember Summer Camp I...

GC13 and David discuss  Settling the Score from Glitch Techs. Brad Breeck’s music is mighty, and this episode is a pleasure to watch just for “Rock ’em, Sock ’em” and “Kaiju Baby” alone. But this episode has more than just music: it has heart. Miko’s backstory, previously established in  Ralphie Bear is Back , comes back into play as we meet the impr...

GC13 and David discuss  He’s Just Not Here Right Now from Summer Camp Island. This is the debut (maybe?) of the Jersey Devil, a very good hider who serves as the boogeyman of the pine barrens and an eater of sandwiches. It’s also a flashback to Oscar and Hedgehog in their younger days, back when Oscar was a sack of potatoes. (Yeah, maybe not the best nickname…) Thankfully conserv...

GC13 and David discuss  The Real Glitch Techs . Yep, it’s from Glitch Techs. We get introduced to a whole new squad from another town. It’s kind of a shame that we won’t get to see much of them in the future, actually… Still, new tech store, new techs, new boss (with a very, very expensive voice actress), and even some secret sauce! But the most important thing is that in t...

GC13 and David discuss  Shave A Little Off the Wheel from Summer Camp Island, another very different-feeling episode of the series. Cookiesmell the mouse goes on an annual adventure for a ridiculously small amount of cheese, but this year he makes a friend: a snowflake named Snowflake. We can’t be  certain that Snowflake will return to the ground some day, but one thing we know for sure is t...

GC13 and David discuss  Wizard City , the fourth and final episode of the Adventure Time: Distant Lands miniseries. It’s over, isn’t it? Well technically it was over after  Together Again if you consider the timeline, but  Wizard City was the last to air. This is a very different Peppermint Butler from the one we knew, but we know he gets his power back in the end. As for Wizard City?...

GC13 and David discuss  Find the Glitch from Glitch Techs. It’s finally happened: YouTube Poop culture has seeped into Glitch Techs and taken over, at least for one episode. Do all of the crazy edits you want, just so long as we don’t need to animate much new stuff. Mitch raised a lot of good points about Miko though, as did Five. And Safety Inspector Seven? Well, she raised some good...

GC13 and David discuss  Tomorrow’s Bananas from Summer Camp Island, a double-meaning of an episode title if we’ve ever heard one. And tomorrow IS bananas, especially when you’re using bananas to shape it. Sounds like a certain rubber piggy-centric episode of another cartoon, doesn’t it? Susie is quite the uplifting mentor when she wants to be, and even if he’s a good...

GC13 and David discuss  The New Recruit from Glitch Techs. The triumphant return of everyone’s favorite glitch modder, Ridley, is only slightly tempered by the mass destruction she manages to cause. Besides, she’s able to put Mitch in his place—his respect sure isn’t easy to earn. It’s sad to know that Ridley’s second appearance is her last (in the finished episodes,...

GC13 and David discuss  Jeremiah from Summer Camp Island. Oscar, the camper with the most telepathically intrudable mind, just so happened to stumble on one of Susie’s magical artifacts that preys on weakness. What are the odds? Yep, Susie probably should have brought in Hedgehog for this one. All’s well that ends well though. Do you think we’ll see Jeremiah again, or do you thin...

GC13 and David discuss  BUDS from Glitch Techs. Come on, we can’t be the only ones disappointed we never got to see any gameplay from Burrowing Underground Doppelganger Squad. At least we got to see some Pixel Panic, even if it does seem oddly familiar… But this is it: the start of Mitch’s redemption. The seeds planted that will one day grow into sympathy for the devil (or at lea...

GC13 and David discuss  The Emily Ghost Institute For Manners and Magical Etiquette from Summer Camp Island, and yep: that title is a mouth full. And we all know how rude it is to talk with your mouth full. Well, except for maybe Oscar. (He’s kind of thick, you see.) At least he didn’t have to eat any knuckle sandwiches, and Hedgehog even got to go to school for a day! We do have our d...

GC13 and David discuss  Ralphie Bear is Back from Glitch Techs. So, everyone mark “Five Nights at Freddy’s episode” off of your checklist. Jinkies those animatronics are creepy… Thank goodness we have a Birthday Ruiner around to take care of them! Maybe we even have two… Save all of your money up, and you too can have a robot try to ruin your birthday! At least the pr...

GC13 and David discuss  Oscar and His Demon from Summer Camp Island. It’s an episode where the strictest standards of silence are upheld. There’s no speaking, no music, and no sounds of wildlife (don’t worry, the woodpeckers are excellent mimes). Well we say there’s no speaking, but that bit at the end… Oscar’s demon gives voice to some very interesting thoughts...

GC13 and David discuss  Spirit Balls from Summer Camp Island. Ah, 10 years before Betsy. Isn’t it nice to be able to place things on a timeline? We get another look at Mallory in this episode, but it’s Emma we really get a dive into. But… Do we actually understand her any better? No, no, all we have is questions. If  Spirit Balls didn’t make you wonder then you weren’...

GC13 and David discuss  Breakfast Like Gene Kelly from Summer Camp Island. We may not know much about Gene Kelly, but we know a lot about Summer Camp Island—except for maybe monster names, we’re still working on those. Thank goodness we have pine needle skiing with a ski patrol, and a swear patrol to go along with them! Also, we know a lot about health codes too. We have our doubts that Osca...

GC13 and David discuss  Ping from Glitch Techs. This is it: the big retro game episode! Games like Pong may not be as advanced as the games we play nowadays, but they’re still fun. Even Super Mario 64 still has a few things it can teach us. But of course Mitch isn’t a big fan of the beepy-bloopy retro titles. He’ll be getting his character development soon enough though, don&#821...

GC13 and David bring up a double-header and discuss both Sea Bunnies and Mushrumours from Summer Camp Island. Sea Bunnies is a wild ride, not least because of the huge difference in art style the episode has. Just watch out for the sea rabbits: they’re not nearly as cute and cuddly as they first appear… It’s Mushrumours that gives us another piece of the lore puzzle, with witches...

GC13 and David discuss  Susie’s Fantastical Scavenger Hunt from Summer Camp Island. Yeah, Susie’s lost a lot of earring backs, okay? At least she remembers vaguely where she lost them. And apparently isn’t too particular about where she gets them from, as long as she gets them. Oscar and Lucy make a good team though, even if it’s only due to the embracing of a diabolical na...

GC13 and David discuss  Dark Harvest from Invader Zim, AKA “Body Horror: The Episode”. You could do body part replacement without it looking so uncomfortable, but that’s not the world Invader Zim takes place in. Everything is awful, everyone is awful, and every background must be lovingly crafted by a (hopefully) well-paid background artist for use in a single shot. Yeah, pairing...

GC13 and David discuss  The Glitch Modder from Glitch Techs. Introducing a new character is a heck of a way to start a season (or the second half of a season for you sticklers). Well, Ridley… If you’ve seen the episode you’ll know, and if you haven’t seen the episode then what are you waiting for? It’s good to see that Mitch is still in jerk mode. Some things never ch...

GC13 and David discuss  Together Again from Adventure Time: Distant Lands. Finn and Jake are finally together again! We knew this was coming ever since Finn had his Jake tattoo in Obsidian , and it’s a suitably epic adventure for Finn and Jake to end their tenure on. Did you wonder about Dead Worlds? We get to see a few. We even know some numbers for them! This episode of the podcast is also...

GC13 and David discuss  Sneeze Guard from Summer Camp Island. Yes, an episode about being sick to follow an episode about germs. And oh how sick things become. Alice doesn’t pass her illness on to anyone, oh no—she passes it on to the island itself. Magical illnesses don’t mess around on Summer Camp Island. Thankfully, witches have the ability to make a loyal assistant out of anyone, s...

GC13 and David discuss  Germs from Invader Zim. Another episode of Zim, another episode that got its own Flash game on Nick.com. Okay, this is also the last one with its own game, but it’s still remarkable. So come with us into a world where the 3D printers are really good and the spray cans last forever—a world of spaaaaaace meat! This episode of the podcast is also available on YouTube .
