This week we got answers we had been asking for and some we hadn’t been asking for.

On an episode that slightly advances the overarching plot we debate the practicalities of bringing an engineer to a monastery, talk about the canonical stench of humans, and celebrate a rare moment of Reed being right. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
