    E58: Hey Luke, Are You Afraid of Death?!

    E58: Hey Luke, Are You Afraid of Death?!

    Heeeeeey. So, we've been gone for a while. Sorry about that! The thing is, humans aren't meant to constantly produce things and work, and Luke and Quinn are both mentally ill and needed a bit of a break. Also, waaaaay more time has passed than they realized! Here's an episode that they filmed for you weeks ago.

    Oh, one more thing: we are going to continue our hiatus until the new year, where we will be back and (hopefully) better than ever. We will even endeavor to announce any future hiatuses ahead of time. Imagine that!

    Anyway. Without further ado: here's some fun facts about the history of death, dying, and mourning, presented by Quinn. There's some angst from Luke, but Quinn promises it's fun! At least, for them. Fun is a loose word. Listen. You'll LEARN something! And the new year will bring more fun and shenanigans of the more uplifting sort. Until then, Friends!

    E57: You're Telling Me a Fart Wrote This Simulation?

    E57: You're Telling Me a Fart Wrote This Simulation?

    Hello, hello there Friends! New format, same podcast! Luke and Quinn are getting more structured over here and getting back to the heart of HMOF...talking about cool stuff. So tune in this week for some farm updates, Luke breaking Quinn's life and mind with an overview of simulation theory, symmetry, and why we are all the ancestors of fart clouds, and an AITA: The Friends Court that reminds us all how useless landlords really are.

    All this and more, THIS WEEK!

    While book club was fun, Luke and Quinn are ~depressed~ and can't read on a rigid schedule. Don't worry, they'll still let you know if something juicy comes their way!
