WTYP dowsing bonus episode: I'd read about the bomb "detectors" before, but I completely forgot about the bespoke circuitry made by gluing dead ants to paper

I think it most likely was him having a laugh, because the alternative explanation would be him trying to make something that looked like a circuit board, but doing that in a heroic effort to make a cover more likely to get you found out, instead of just clipping off bits of waste electronics or taking a 10 minute class in wiring a bulb to a battery

Just reminds me of the character in Papers Please who keeps showing up to the border checkpoint with homemade passports done in crayon

Not sure whether it counts as part of the NBEU, but the second season of the all-riff Glue Factory with Milo and Riley is on

I kinda like the video format - it's obviously far from as dependent on it as WTYP, but it really helps some jokes like Milo's bit about cheating at skeleton
