Ohhh was that Jon's office i wonder

2025-05-08 15:40:08 +0000 UTCThis is one of my favorite Protocol episodes so far. Mr Bonzo is /such/ a silly monster, but the frantic music and excellent voice acting really sells him as disturbing and physically dangerous
Ransack0894
2024-07-04 19:23:27 +0000 UTCI think it says a lot about how well put together this show is that I only stopped to think ‘wait, what was recording this’ when they began to move away from the tape recorder. Also: woodworm, huh? Probably best they didn’t sit down after all.
Frankie Frankenstein
2024-03-26 01:29:49 +0000 UTCMy own personal theory is that the errors are related to the meta of the show itself. Like a post-release ARG extension. I think every episode has had at least a few mistakes in transcript or title on release. I haven’t categorized it all yet though.

2024-03-17 17:00:40 +0000 UTC"His teeth are not soft" 😱 The context was slightly less gruesome than I imagined, but still horrifying enough 😆

transvamp
2024-03-16 08:13:38 +0000 UTCDunno if the comments section is the right place for theorycrafting, but I'm thinking there's something really weird about this Bonzo guy...

2024-03-15 04:41:10 +0000 UTCNAH MY EXACT REACTION
Anti
2024-03-14 19:03:25 +0000 UTCThere appears to be a lot of spelling errors in this transcription?
Maurissa
2024-03-14 06:37:02 +0000 UTCwith us hearing from a tape recorder again i'd place my bets on [Error] being this world's archivist or a similar role
jane cowie
2024-03-14 01:27:00 +0000 UTCBecause Mr Blobby needed to be MORE FUCKING HORRIFYING?!?! Ahem. Bravo once again Magnus Gang, this is devastatingly awful, keep up the outstanding work! 😁
MuddyHippy
2024-03-13 20:03:43 +0000 UTChahahhahaha what the fuck
jem
2024-03-13 18:00:29 +0000 UTCThe transcript is attached at the bottom of the show notes. It won't be in the public folder until the public episode drops.
Grae Rose
2024-03-13 17:39:37 +0000 UTCIs anyone else seeing the parallel between Mr.Bonzo and Jared Hopsworth? They’re both being sent people to kill! Not only that but a parallel between Orsinov and Bonzo too. The only difference is Orsinov killed their creator and Bonzo is keeping them captive.
Waffles ?
2024-03-13 17:22:33 +0000 UTCNow I'm just thinking of the next Hitman game starring Bonzo

Kae
2024-03-13 16:10:14 +0000 UTCI see Jonny was also subjected to a lot of Noel’s House Party growing up. I had to give my Italian partner a rundown on that icon of British millennial childhood so he could properly appreciate how great this episode was.
Fae
2024-03-13 15:59:24 +0000 UTCI'm cackling at "CAN HE READ!?😰"
Ambrose, First And Last
2024-03-13 14:54:07 +0000 UTC*Screaming crying throwing up all at once* WHAT IS HAPPENING?! First Colin is back being all secretive, Gwen unleashing Bonzo on who knows what, & then someone returning (Jon, Martin, Elias? Someone else?) Y'all really gonna kill us with these back to back cliff hangers! 😱👀☠️ Also idk if it's just me but I found it really hard to understand the Mr. Bonzo sounds particularly his name, so had to rely on transcript to actually know what was said. so idk if any cleaning of audio can be done?
Cas D
2024-03-13 14:53:05 +0000 UTCIS THAT MISTER FUCKING BLOBBY?????
Ambrose, First And Last
2024-03-13 14:36:58 +0000 UTCI... but... wait... we have to WAIT now?! Bravo!
Ian
2024-03-13 14:33:35 +0000 UTCI'm sorry, 'and [ERROR] emerges'??? You can't hiatus on that 👁️👄👁️

Spooknett
2024-03-13 08:11:11 +0000 UTCI am just now finally starting to process everything that happened in this episode and I might be going slightly insane. No idea how I'm supposed to survive a whole month!

Reynard Du Maurier
2024-03-12 23:03:08 +0000 UTCI finally have a moment to listen to the episode, and HOLY SHIT!!!!! I need to take the time, later, to form a more detailed comment, because I already have SO MANY THOUGHTS!!! 🤯

2024-03-12 22:24:47 +0000 UTCI have lost the ability to form a coherent thought. Currently my mind is screaming in an accumulation of equal parts fear and questioning. God this was brilliant!!

2024-03-12 21:51:47 +0000 UTCTook me too long to realize Celia was in Melanie and Georgie’s cult at the end of the Magnus Archives…
Josiah DeRosa
2024-03-12 21:35:11 +0000 UTCThe tape recorder at the end!
Grace and Rowan Yarger
2024-03-12 20:50:37 +0000 UTCBeth Eyre (assuming that’s who it was) voiced the women in mag 130
The existing Person
2024-03-12 20:50:08 +0000 UTCGoing absolutely insane over this... This was so genuinely unsettling, I never felt genuinely creeped out listening to TMA. Amazing episode!!
orioreo
2024-03-12 20:48:50 +0000 UTCYeah, he is indeed (Who I discovered thanks to some special episode of TMA, this podcast has never failed at the traumatising bit)
MarlaBothBothIsGood
2024-03-12 20:45:55 +0000 UTCIt would be the ultimate crossover
MarlaBothBothIsGood
2024-03-12 20:44:52 +0000 UTCMister Bonzo was EVERYTHING I have wished for and more Colin MVP being already in the strong paranoia track WORM TRACKS WORM TRACKS I AM YELLING Also, I am trying to decide what is funniest: Jon the Archie or Gertrude the Archie DOOR OPENING DOOR OPENING STARTS OF SOMETHING THAT COULD BE A LAUGH AH

superandiness
2024-03-12 19:51:48 +0000 UTCHoly crap it’s getting going!! I wonder who Mr Bonzo is going to eat? And ahhhhhh the tape recorder!!!!! We now have a full month to overanalyze these ten episodes 😂
Nawal Fisher
2024-03-12 19:47:29 +0000 UTCMy favorite episode yet!!! Omg I love it so much. The nameplate for “Archi-“ can’t possibly be archivist, that would be - wait a tape click noise? OPE
rowanoak
2024-03-12 19:40:46 +0000 UTCJust starting and already scream g Bonzo! Bonzo!! Bonzo!!!
Tyler H
2024-03-12 19:38:05 +0000 UTCIs Mr. Bonzo based on Mr. Blobby?

HemiDemi
2024-03-12 18:43:09 +0000 UTCOk so the Buried and Stranger merged into a new power, the fear of being perceived and then trapped by the expectations of disembodied crowds. That's what connects a lot of these cases.

2024-03-12 18:31:17 +0000 UTCI. Mr Bonzo was absolutely worth the wait. The Tape Recorder and considering who Beth Eyre was in TMA I am Excite for the Flesh??? Arc

Bella Andersson
2024-03-12 16:50:48 +0000 UTCGiven the fact that transcript says "[ERROR] emerges and takes a shuddering breath.. " and the credits feature "Beth Eyre as [Error]" I'd say not, it isn't Jon.
