Also he's buried in Westminster Abbey. Which, for people who don't know London, is right next to Parliament and Big Ben (the bongs they heard through the bulb). So, right location to be affected by any weird necromantic and/or planar stuff going on there.
It’s also all a few minutes’ walk from where the Magnus Institute is (fictionally) located. Which is probably not relevant, just funny.

Of all the possible meanings of that title, I admit that "accidental lich Geoffrey Chaucer" had not occurred to me.

I can't believe Alex is still throwing in plot twists like this as they're on their final mission my gosh. Babbage's response to Hamid going all 'we ran into [redacted]' was hilarious

I loved the episode (as always) but is there any chance of a transcript for the Jeff lines, I have very little idea of what was said

Just FYI, I *don't* have audio processing problems but I really struggled to parse the voice of... well, to avoid spoilers, Nuff Nuff

Azu! You can't just ASK people if they should be dead!
What a delightful episode. Though just fyi, the outro still says "Join our community on the Discord" at one point : (

Alex: "laughable amounts of blood"
Bryn: starts laughing
Me: "Not literally, Bryn!"

Does anyone know how that author's last name is spelled? (I'm sorry, I have a really hard time understanding English at times so I couldn't hear it)

This is the first time I’ve listened to an episode the day it drops!!! Extremely excited. I missed the intro music,,

As soon as he said what to call him, I connected it with the episode title and stared into my cubicle wall like it was the camera on The Office. I both love and hate Alex for this, as usual.

the idea that wilde could ever be outdrama-ed when he's wearing the outrageous rainbow ruff robes is honestly inconceivable and it'll never happen in my heart
