Released on 03/20/2020

On Episode 124 of Guide to the Unknown: It’s time to distract ourselves with magical, mystical human/animal hybrids! We’re stoked on the release of the new Animal Crossing game for Nintendo Switch, where you play as a little villager in a world of cute animals. It got us imagining a version where you live next to animal demons rather than cute bunnies and stuff. So we’re talking WEREWOLVES, The Goat Man, Sphinxes, Animorphs, and a whole lot more! Distract yourself with us! Oh, also add us via our Nintendo Switch Friend Codes so you can visit our little animal villages: Kristen: SW-4506-1908-3787 Will: SW-3209-7511-2618 Hey, this is also the first time we’ve ever had a sponsor!

And Kristen gives you the WHOA. And then you can get the “Dispatches from Elsewhere” from Jason Segel. Because this thing is a tv show now!
