I've gotta get someone to DVR this for me or something, because this is great. Pretty cool that they're actually letting them do it. Think it's some sort of attempt at Seeso brand awareness?

They usually put the episode up free to stream on Comedy Central's site the day after the episode airs.

Travis' headshot is very funny to me.

Also when Justin mentioned witnessing their Dad putting butter on a Pop-Tart, I thought about how that is my Dad's preferred way to eat one, and wondered if "Butter on Pop-Tart" is just some kind of Universal Dad Constant. (Also my Dad weighs a full 40 pounds less than me, and I regret every day that he decided to share that decadent magic.)

Incorrect, as of February Viacom has pulled all Comedy Central content from Hulu. As far as I know, there are no plans to put it back on there.

ok I am sufficiently far down the rabbit hole that I am re-listening to the last two Lunar Interlude episodes, and I have a prediction. Barry is definitely planning to take the Starblaster and leave this reality to its fate, right? In that scenario, even if only one person makes it out of reality alive, the seven of them all live, including Lup - but if they follow Lucretia's plan, which we heard in the last episode, they'll be trapped in this reality forever, and Lup can never come back to life.

That's why Barry and Lucretia have been spending all this time warning the guys not to trust each other. Each of them knows that TBH will be the swing vote between staying and fighting, or running and surviving. Those have to be the "two terrible options" from the prophecy. And that's why Griffin needed to do this arc, in order to make Lup and Barry 'real' and turn it into an actual choice that they would struggle with.

The prophecy showed two results from their choices, either they run and the hunger consumes everything or they put up the shield and everything turns to ash because the planes cannot exist without one another. So we know their argument is invalid because there will be a deus ex machina solution that is presented to the THB where not everybody is obliterated. The prophecy told us as much.

I'm not sure that those endings were meant to imply that the result of either one was going to be immediate ultimate destruction. Now that we know why they stayed in this reality in the first place, we know there's no real reason they couldn't just keep running.

The hunger gets stronger every cycle, presumably if they keep running it will get powerful enough to stop them. Especially if they consume a planar system as lively, vibrant, and rich as the one they're on. The hunger is absorbing gods, wizards and sorcerers, that soul crystal they nabbed from the other cycle, all the dead souls in the astral plane.

I think their time of running is gone at this point.

It's also presumably kept on consuming other places during the what, ten years? That they've been on this plane.

That's a fair bet, but here's another factor that we know for sure: they are a lot more attatched to this plane than the last hundred. After spending a decade in this world, how bad will the thought of leaving it behind and jumping back into the loop sound? Even Taako, who hasn't put down any roots, probably wouldn't be too keen on it. Magnus and Merle sure as hell aren't turning away from what they have here.

No poo poo, the fun part is trying to figure out what that third option is.

My guess: they're going to beat the hunger in a sports game. With the great coach Magnus on their side there's no way they can lose.

There must be something with John, or a way to break the hivemind. That's what The Hunger is, right? This is a weird sidebar, but I think it'll be like The Mountain in Adventure Time, where a 'godhead' is broken back down to its constituent beings. I'm probably way off and it's something much more clever though.

It will be a combo of all three special cycles for the THB that defeats John. Merle pulls him into the special room, Magnus makes John forget poo poo using Fisher, and Taako eats the poo poo out of him with the umbrastaff. While inventing a taco.

The main threat in this world is called The Hunger and it literally eats entire planes of existence. I don't think this revelation is as shocking as you think it is.

There's a difference between being consumed by a giant sentient cloud of darkness and being consumed by a gay elf, a difference only a true aficionado like Griffin could properly articulate in DnD podcast form.
