Notes:
* When we played that first game of Dungeons & Dragons, I had only met Nisabel and Iman twice.

* Mentions of various violent crime from around *19:15* to *20:40*.

* More mentions of that The Mortal Instruments incest (and Flowers in the Attic) from like *37:00* to about *41:15*.
* Wine Auntie is a Way of the Drunken Master Monk. We just didn’t say.
* There’s actually a Paladin spell called Lay on Hands.

Episode Twenty-Five: Back in Black, Back in Time (MiB³)
In Episode Twenty-Five, Andrew and chrs remind us that there are some secrets the universe don't know about in a time jumping review of Men in Black III.
Notes:
* Moon launch - July 16, 1969
* Gravity is measured by the acceleration that it gives to freely falling objects. At Earth's surface the acceleration of gravity is *about 9.8 metres (32 feet) per second per second*. Thus, for every second an object is in free fall, its speed increases by about 9.8 metres per second.
* K's pie order is actually apple pie with a slice of cheddar. I agree with J, it's nasty.
* Griffin at the baseball game
* The truth is the only way
* Boris the Animal true form
* K and J meeting at the police station
* Every alien celebrity in MiB
* Danny Elfman did the soundtrack for MiB³
* Back in Time - Pitbull

Episode Ten: Friend or Furry
In Episode Ten of True Believers, Andrew and Alana briefly walk into the world of "Fangs" by Sarah Anderson, and somehow devolve into a highly contentious quiz to determine which of them is chrs's REAL best friend.
NOTES:
* Alana is the friend mentioned at the end of the show notes of Episode Five: Back to the Future State.
* The “furry” thing we keep referencing is actually not that bad. He’s taking a nap in wolf form and starts wagging his tail when he opens his eye and sees that she’s changing in front of him.
* This was not a tinder date. They just met in a bar because Jimmy heard Elsie say that she was a dog person.
* The True Blood thing was actually an entirely different white guy named Andrew that I went to school with. Apologies to Andrew, my co-host.

* Fun fact: chrs doesn’t even enjoy the movie “Back to the Future”
* Yara Flor’s design is inspired by an indigenous Brazilian model named Suyane Moreira
* The concept that chrs was thinking of when she was struggling to define Yara Flor’s story was a parable. A parable is a story used to illustrate a moral or spiritual lesson, and they’re very common in most theologies.
* It’s actually Brainiac’s skull ship where Diana encounters The Spectre.
* The Spectre is...something like the DC Comics version of Ghost Rider. You’d have to look it up. I’m not wrong, but I’m also not making an effort to be right.
