Introduction to 'Somewhere Elsewhere'
00:00:29
Speaker
Welcome to Somewhere Elsewhere, a world-building and actual play podcast. I am Jerrica. And I am Janiel. And this is a podcast in two parts.
00:00:42
Speaker
The first part is the world-building, where we take a prompt from you and make a world out of it. In our second part, we roll some dice, tell a story, and make a little something extra out of the world we just created.
00:00:58
Speaker
So I think we should just get started. Okay.
Doppelgangers in Space: Aliens or Persecuted?
00:01:02
Speaker
So today we have a prompt for doppelgangers in space.
00:01:12
Speaker
So off the bat, I'm going with the cliche or it's doppelganger aliens. Well, that's what I was thinking too. Like this shit's been done in Hollywood so many times over. Like the aliens settled the the planet, right? Let's, that's kind of,
00:01:26
Speaker
or Or maybe only the doppelgangers have figured out how space travel. Or they sent the doppelgangers into space because um they were persecuted for being doppelgangers.
00:01:46
Speaker
Now, is that racist or what? How does that work with doppelganger? I think that's pretty, pretty goddamn racist. Hey, you look exactly like me. I fucking hate you. Like, oh, yeah, well you can impersonate anybody. We can't trust you, obviously.
00:02:03
Speaker
wait are so they're they're doppelgangers as a race or they like legit just like people that are born that look that way like because like that's what the like literal term of doppelganger is in the real world is like you can go to some other fucking country and wow and you say wow that person looks pretty much just like me but we're not related whatsoever There is actually someone who goes out there and finds people that look alike and they have like a meetup and it's fucking weird because they can be from totally different countries, different cultures, different races, but they look like the same like facial features and eye color or whatever. And it's fucking weird. There is nobody who looks like me, Janelle.
00:02:47
Speaker
I am 100% unique. And don't. unique and i don't Want to entertain the thought that there's other people that look like you out there?
00:02:57
Speaker
my sister looks a little like me. oh you Yes, well but like but she doesn't look exactly like you. She looks like you in the sense that, yeah, she's my sister. There's a resemblance. And, like, you both kind of look like your mom in a way. So, like, that makes
Societal Implications of Doppelgangers
00:03:12
Speaker
sense. But, like, you don't need two... I don't know if I can say that.
00:03:21
Speaker
Two Janiels? Does it leave a better taste in your mouth? No, I think it leaves a kind of opposite kind of taste in my mouth, and I think that's the problem. Gross. Yeah. What? Wait, what? I thought you meant it was a bad, like, what? no Okay, this is way off topic.
00:03:39
Speaker
Welcome to our next podcast where two ADHD brain fiends try to do something and get work done. Like, can I... If there was two Janiles, then I could give you guys...
00:03:53
Speaker
One could do my job and one can get the stuff done here. It's a classic clone trope, but they're not clones. They're different people. Okay, so what we need is someone to do our jobs while we stay at home and just... Be lazy bastards? But like... All snuggles all the time. Okay.
00:04:14
Speaker
And then we can switch off. Like, one week, we can be the lazy bastards, and the other ones do work, and then one week... No. No. No. But then that's when you have a clone uprising.
Twin Planets and Doppelganger Perception
00:04:25
Speaker
Or doppelganger uprising. Hmm.
00:04:28
Speaker
Maybe. You gotta let... You gotta, you know... But are they really people? there's a racist one now Okay, so... Yeah, we should probably establish whether...
00:04:41
Speaker
they're like doppelgangers like is in shape changers or they're literally just like two of every person on the planet or whatever but one just happens to be an alien race or something okay i know which one i want to go with do you know which one you want to go with i am kind of picturing my head you're thinking like doppelgangers in space i'm thinking like two identical planets and They have identical people on them, but each of them think, oh, those fuckers up there, they're doppelgangers.
00:05:10
Speaker
But each of them are thinking that. Even though they have be two twin planets with like the same. Interesting. That's what I'm thinking. So really.
00:05:23
Speaker
It's the same world, just twice. Yeah, but don't live their different lives. They do the different things. But how would they know that they're doppelgangers? Maybe they visit each other but for thousands of years before they got the ability to do that. And then they finally like both of them launched rocket ships towards each other. Like, oh, shit, we both had the same idea. And they land and like, what the fuck? You look like just site look exactly like the astronauts we just sent. OK, all right. so no wait Our rocket just turned 180 and it went right back here. What the fuck? OK, so what we have here, we have a situation where, OK, we have we've got twin planets that are doppelgangers of each other.
00:05:57
Speaker
So the actual planet is a doppelganger too. Okay, but...
00:06:04
Speaker
doppelganger is not the same as a clone, right? A clone is like intentional, like you made in another person like that person. Right, so I think doppelgangers always have something that's different about them.
00:06:16
Speaker
Right? like Eye color, hair color, taller, or shorter. Yeah, something. okay Something minor. What would be the difference between the planets themselves? Hmm. one spins clockwise one spins counterclockwise i mean thinking about the planets are so there's one planet our solar so so solar system i can't remember which one which spins the opposite direction it spins sideways uranus i know spins on its side yeah uranus does um i thought there was one that's been spun in opposite direction i
00:06:48
Speaker
yeah neptu maybe Maybe. Well, quick Google search. We gotta to go to the Googles. What planet has the opposite spin?
00:07:00
Speaker
Venus. Venus is. Okay. We're way off. oh this is actually very interesting. So fun fact about Earth and Venus. Earth and Venus are like right about the same size.
00:07:15
Speaker
Except that Venus is like full of deadly gases. Yeah, not made out of gases. Right. It's still a rocky planet. It's as close to the sun. So it's this it's very, very.
00:07:27
Speaker
Unheadable, it's very hot. Are we inadvertently creating? Venusians here. I mean, we're thinking like two twin planets in our solar system of this twin planet solar system, one would have to be closer to its orbiting star, would it? Unless. Unless.
00:07:46
Speaker
Unless you're thinking like moons around a larger planet, because moons can also host life. There are there are ah there are observations of moons, even our own solar system that have frozen water, not a show of water. don't believe it's some other or some other chemical.
00:08:05
Speaker
But that kind of leads to the thought of like, oh, you could have one giant ass planet and have moons around this planet that have the kind of the same climate because they're in the same, relatively the same distance away from the sun.
00:08:18
Speaker
But they have weather and days affected by orbiting around this big ass planet. Right. Like the forest moon of Endor. Exactly. And Yavin 4. Yeah. Again, that's been said and done in in Hollywood and movies and shit everywhere.
00:08:33
Speaker
Can you put your screen down so I can see you? I can only see the top half of your face and it's really weird. Sorry, I'm just trying to do a good thing and take notes, but I guess we can just listen back to this recording if really wanted to. Yeah, I need to see your fucking face.
00:08:48
Speaker
I apologize. Okay, now it's going to distracting. I'm going looking at you the whole time. um Okay. No. the screen No. Partially a backup. It's just that you're short. Yes, not everyone listening to the podcast can say I'm five foot two.
00:09:05
Speaker
I shouldn't measure you just just to make sure. It's like five foot two or five foot three. i don't give a shit anymore, honestly. I'm short. I'm still measuring you. Okay. All right. So.
00:09:16
Speaker
All right. So they got. So what if. What if. They're. On opposite sides of the sun. How would that work? Because they're like, they're constantly like, planets are constantly orbiting the sun, right? If it's functioning like our solar Right.
00:09:31
Speaker
So they're in the exact same orbit, just... I wonder if that's a thing. if That has to be a thing, right? In physics, can planets share the same orbital ring? Let's see what the Google says.
00:09:47
Speaker
Can planets...
00:09:51
Speaker
Share the same orbit. Yes, two planets. Oh, that's AI. Fuck you. I want an actual... Fuck you, AI! I mean, Reddit?
00:10:02
Speaker
Science. Science.org. Okay. That's that's reputable. Science.org. Can't be science.com. It's dot org. Astronomers discover hint of sibling planets sharing the same orbit.
00:10:17
Speaker
See? They figured it out. They saw it. Nice. And...
Cyclical Migration and History Repetition
00:10:22
Speaker
Matthew Clement of the Carnegie Institute Carnegie Institution for Science says it's very cool.
00:10:29
Speaker
yeah ah See, a scientist said this is fucking rad. So we have to work with this. So they share the same orbit, just on opposite side of the their sun. So the climates will be the same.
00:10:44
Speaker
Their day nights would be opposite. Right. Because they're. Their seasons would be opposite, I believe. yeah Well, it depends. It depends on the tilt, right? Mm-hmm. Um... Well, you're talking about the same planet, their tilts were probably the same, so if they're orbiting around the same star, they would have opposite seasons.
00:11:02
Speaker
Right. Unless they're not tilted, in which to case they don't have seasons. That would fucked up. Well, I mean, not all of the planets are tilted, are they? They all have some degree of tilt. Really?
00:11:13
Speaker
I'm fucking, yours is not its side. So it's very tilted. Very tilted. Good old Uranus. It's saying like, you know what? Fuck you all. I'm doing my own thing.
00:11:25
Speaker
I appreciate you. And whoever the fuck gave me the name Uranus, fuck you. No, see, it's fine. It was fine until, you know, we had English and modern English. And it's like, oh, Uranus. Like, no.
00:11:43
Speaker
If you're saying Uranus, that means you're an anus. It's Uranus. And in my heart, Pluto is still a planet. yeah Where were, was it party that I suggested something about Pluto and it got all like on me for it?
00:12:01
Speaker
Tizzy. Yeah. People are very divided on that. um
00:12:10
Speaker
fuck are we talking about oh yes okay so talking about twin planets in space sharing the same orbit okay okay so they have the same orbit let's say they have opposite tilts just for funsies and and they're going they're spinning different directions interesting okay we're not we're not this is not a physics podcast we're not physicists if you're complain about physics fuck you yes yes That should be should be one of our catchphrases. If we're going to complain about physics, fuck you.
00:12:42
Speaker
We can bend the rules of physics. We are the gods of these worlds we're creating. We fucking created them out of from our own, not from our own two hands, with our own two hands. Although, no that would be an interesting prompt for another one.
00:12:56
Speaker
Fucking create worlds of your own bare hands. Just take a clump of sand and crush it and say, i give you life. Or no, like like the the the gods like take their own body parts and sculpt them into like worlds.
00:13:08
Speaker
Kind of like the um the demon isles from House. In a way. That's a topic for another another world development. Let's not get it's not cross streams here. Let's focus on the one. Okay, so...
00:13:24
Speaker
And everyone on one planet has an identical. OK, so so how does that work? So if ever for every baby that's born on one planet, another is born on on the other planet and like and they're the same.
00:13:40
Speaker
Yeah, if you're talking about two true doppelgangers, like, I would think these people leave their own own minds and everything, like, a little bit different than one planet does. They would still get together and have kids, and those kids are born with another kid on another planet. So, like, they made with the same people on both planets? That seems weird. I think that's how genetics work, because if you're creating an identical kid...
00:14:07
Speaker
Right. So like, does this does this world don't have free will? Like, oh, yeah, this world's doing it this way. We have to do it this way, too. all Otherwise, you're going to be a freak that doesn't have a doppelganger.
00:14:19
Speaker
Like, is it is it is it considered sinful to be on? Oh, holy shit. Are you going to be considered a little freak that doesn't have a doppelganger if you decide to have a child with somebody else and you're a child of that sinful relationship? How would you know? like Yeah, like, are these planets actively trying to be like one another? Are they trying to, like, why? is there some is there some god or something that says you two have to be the same?
00:14:49
Speaker
And if you don't, you're a dirty little... dirty little person that's not going to live long and earn my wrath. So, okay, here, this is what I'm picturing. I'm picturing a God. It's like, okay, I made these two planets.
00:15:02
Speaker
Alright, I'm going to put the same people on each one of them and I'm going to put them on opposite sides of the Sun and I'm gonna spin them in different directions and see what happens. That sounds like a god fucking around.
00:15:14
Speaker
Like, hey, you're my practice planet. You're the actual one I love. don't listen what these guys say. You're the one I love. I i fucking hate those guys. What it? Okay, so there there has to be some sort of link. i Well...
00:15:28
Speaker
Maybe there doesn't. So if he spins them different and just like, OK, let's see what happens. So I'm thinking like if this world is similar to ours where it has like primitive life, where there's no rockets, no technology, basically people living off the land. How would they know that somewhere up there is a planet just like theirs, that they're doing the same shit? And there's their day where they have a convergence when they...
00:15:55
Speaker
finally realize that there's an art plant like them or they not know and it's like a secret thing where it's just like oh they can't know otherwise it just creates a big fucking problem or the people on the opposite side of the sun are the the dark counterparts for the other one sort of like the good count of the the good doppelganger versus evil doppelganger like shit Yeah, except that they both think that. Assholes out there. And meanwhile, the assholes are like, yo, fuckers down there. You look exactly like me, but I hate them.
00:16:31
Speaker
ah See, i'm I'm the perfect one. The to me that's on the other planet, she's a total asshole. Hate her guts. She would lie to you and just be the worst person ever.
00:16:43
Speaker
How do you know that? Because I'm me. I know what I'm like. But that bitch down there, there's no one like me. So is and then the other person on the other one is saying the exact same thing? Pretty much thinking the exact same thing, because like, i imagine some people are like that, like, oh.
00:17:04
Speaker
I'm the only one of me and they say there's doppelgangers up there. She can't be the but the person who looks like me. She can't be anything like me. There's got to be the assholes like that. And then there's this whole opposite where people will be like, I want to meet my doppelganger and hang out and just like get high and and and play video games.
00:17:21
Speaker
Sorry, I was thinking about getting high and playing video games and that sounds fun. Okay. um Not that you have personal experience with that. Not at all. um Okay. Well, now here's the interesting thing. If they're both spinning opposite directions, when one is night, the other one's going to be day. Mm-hmm. Because they're opposite sides of the sun. Right.
00:17:44
Speaker
Well, no, no you you you realize that... And I don't don't assume I realize anything, Janelle. No, never mind. i'm I'm trying to think about how our world works, and yeah.
00:17:57
Speaker
Well, mean, I guess ah if they're spinning opposite directions, I guess they would have similar nighttime, daytime things. Because you were thinking, like, half the planet is facing the sun, right? Half the planet is facing away. That's how you get daytime, nighttime.
00:18:12
Speaker
But I guess they're spinning the exact same rate. But opposite? Would that still give you opposite nighttime, daytime?
00:18:23
Speaker
we're we'rewt We're delving way too deep into physics. We can just say they have not opposite daytime, nighttime. Fuck all the logics behind it. I already forgot what the catchphrase was.
00:18:34
Speaker
If you want to think on that deeper, then go ahead. But we're saying they have opposite day and nighttime cycles. All right. So they have opposite day and nighttime cycles. So...
00:18:46
Speaker
We got to get into the nitty gritty of of these people, right? So going back to the start. World creation, maybe fast forward a little bit where you have primitive life. Unless. Unless.
00:18:58
Speaker
It's one of those worlds where has like spontaneous life for some reason. Like a god said, let there be life here and made it. I have no strong feelings either way on this.
00:19:17
Speaker
boom life i have no strong feelings either way on this so Going from like a um timeline standpoint where if we do go like ancient civilization, they would likely not know what is in our world up there because they're fucking people living off the land.
00:19:37
Speaker
They like, oh, what's that bright light in the sky? Well, that's God or something. That's that gives us daytime. That's all we know. i just figured it out. OK.
00:19:53
Speaker
One planet, the the people on one planet, something happened to their planet. And so they moved to the other planet, okay, to inhabit. Except that the planet they left eventually, like, righted it itself.
00:20:10
Speaker
And so, like like some catastrophic thing. And they escaped to the other planet. But it situated itself, and now life began again. but as...
00:20:21
Speaker
History repeats itself as similar life forms. Right. Like the echoes of the people who lived there helped form the new inhabitants. So like they that's why they're doppelgangers, because.
00:20:36
Speaker
Whatever spurred the life to begin in the first place, just did it again in the same exact way. So, yeah, so. To them, they're like, oh, the ancient peoples left these ruins and stuff.
00:20:53
Speaker
But really, they're not the ancient peoples. They're just the same people that just left. h So maybe there doesn't have to be any communication between the two. Okay.
00:21:08
Speaker
Okay, so we have these primitive peoples. So if the people left that planet behind, it would the other planet be more advanced? By definition, yeah.
00:21:21
Speaker
Until they repeat the process where they destroy the world and have to go back. And they come back and it's like, whoa, there's fucking people here. oh no. Oh, no.
00:21:32
Speaker
Okay.
Inhabitants and Exoskeleton Horses
00:21:33
Speaker
So speaking of people, what are these people going to be like? Well, like, I guess I talk about like what they like. they What do they look like? Yeah.
00:21:44
Speaker
Um. We can start with kind of like an easy one. Humanoid. I'm humanoid. That's easy. But how would this world differ? mean, besides the obvious ones we already mentioned, how would that differ from our world? Is it still kind of very rough?
00:21:55
Speaker
um Like, did both planets effectively reset themselves? Because you're talking about this ancient technology, like this one planet have this technology and it's kind of like slowly learning, like relearning how to use it. What about the other planet that's more advanced? Are they just more advanced and that's it Or they also kind of reset themselves a little bit? Once they got to the other planet,
00:22:18
Speaker
They found ruins from when they left. Oh, so they just repeat a cycle. Yeah, it's just like never ending cycle. That's fucked up. Isn't it? I like it, though.
00:22:30
Speaker
And that's like the balance of it. I bet the first time they did it, like the first time they realized that there's just like technology there, they're like, wait, did we just like circle all the way around and land back where we came from? And then this like there's this like this harmony, right? We just keep jumping from planet to planet for some fucking reason.
00:22:47
Speaker
Okay, so humanoid. um Let's see. What kind of animals? Animals. Let's get some fucked up animals, but not too fucked up. So people ride giraffes, like small giraffes instead of horses. Oh my.
00:23:03
Speaker
Oh my gosh, Janil. I rescued a horse from Boko last night. Yeah. I swear to God, it had a giraffe pattern. and Spots. throughou They did to add some dapple horses in this game.
00:23:16
Speaker
It looked just like a giraffe and I called him giraffe. ah Not a great horse. I say the Boko horses are not great. Yeah. like Well, because how would they catch a good horse? Yeah.
00:23:27
Speaker
um But I liberated him. Yeah. I tend to do that at least once in these games to rescue one horse and keep it from the Bokos. You know, there's probably someone out there who shoots the horses.
00:23:40
Speaker
Well, they're fucking assholes, so... Fuck you if you shit the horses in Zelda. Fuck you if you kill the stall horses in Zelda. I kill the the whoever's riding them and then take the stall horse for myself.
00:23:52
Speaker
Yeah, they're not doing anything. They're just horses without skin and flesh. and good But they don't hurt you, and they they do eat somehow. I fed them apples before. That's fucked up. That is fucked up. But I still treat them with... Where did it go? Because good horses.
00:24:07
Speaker
out On the ground again? Like... it is matt It just absorbs into their face bones, I guess. That's... Well, there we go.
00:24:20
Speaker
We have skeleton horses on this planet, on these planets. But how does that work? are they Are they dead horses that just reanimate? Or are they, like, born with their skeletons on the outside? They were born this way. So, they have exoskeleton horses.
00:24:38
Speaker
yeah essentially like and the bones are not like inside the bones are not marrow like our bones like inside is like like in the inside of of goat horns where there's like blood vessels and and shit in there like that's their it's yeah it's like ex the bones are like exoskeleton it's so it's like a fucking crab horse well sort of but like
00:25:06
Speaker
With like the boat, like with bones, like they look like skeletons. Like, yeah like if someone from our planet saw one of these, you're like, oh, that's a skeleton horse. Yeah. And they're like, what? And then the people there be like, what are you talking about? That's a. It's bones are on the outside of his body.
00:25:21
Speaker
That's not where they should be. and also is the body. so you got to like, you got to have something to protect their undercarriage or something. Right. Are they like fully like armored or they have like just a belly on them somehow, even over skeletons?
00:25:34
Speaker
They're just ribcage. It's just a ribcage. Then there's nothing in between the bones? No. That's... Fucked up, yes. How would they survive. How they eat. How they shit.
00:25:46
Speaker
How they have babies. They lay eggs? Yes. They lay eggs. Here, here can he have them like can you have them like chickens? like Here's your breakfast. Here's some fucking horse eggs. Scrambled horse eggs.
00:26:04
Speaker
that sounds awful Yeah, my mare says lamb this morning. Okay. So, all right. They have to eat, right? So they eat like grasses and stuff, right? And as they're chewing, they absorb it in yeah into the bones because that it's it's porous, right? So the nutrients go into the bones, which is which is where all their circulatory system and everything is. Interesting. So direct approach when it comes to digesting foods. do they do with the waste? Yeah.
00:26:32
Speaker
Our planet animals shit it out. But what do the what do what do the skeleton horses do, Jericho? What they do after they absorb the the the food in their face? I don't like the way you're coming at me here.
00:26:45
Speaker
I'm intrigued. I'm intrigued by these skeletal horses. Okay, so they absorb the nutrients. Well, no, they just absorb the nutrients and and and everything else. They just... Just puke up? They just spit out.
00:27:01
Speaker
Okay, I can I can dig that. Like somehow their their their system is smart enough to know. it just rejects the waste like a fucking like. Imagine like this fucking horse bite you an apple and it just like shrivels up and just like what drops out of your mouth it is this fucking like hard. Yeah, kind of. Waste apple.
00:27:20
Speaker
Yeah. Gross, but cool. Okay, so.
00:27:25
Speaker
are they laying the eggs? Let's not go that deep. How these fucking animals reproduce? All we always know is they lay eggs. No, but like, i will I want to figure this out. So, okay. Do they have like a cluster of them, like frog spawn? Or is it like a chicken where they just lay an egg every day?
00:27:44
Speaker
oh, oh, oh. oh So, it starts like as a little like calcium deposit looking thing, right? Egg shells are made of. Yeah, right? Yeah, calcium deposit that just kind of grows.
00:27:57
Speaker
And eventually, like, the the mama, whatever we're calling these things, um will lay down in such a way that it, like, it it breaks off, right? And then then there's the egg there.
00:28:11
Speaker
So how big is a baby sto skeleton horse? is it Is it very small or is the egg very large? Because you know how big baby horses are? They're enormous. but So, well, yeah, because at a certain point, it gets too big for the the mom to carry it.
00:28:27
Speaker
So she's got to drop it off. And then as it and continues to grow and then it just sucks all the like egg calcium material into itself and just kind of like inverts into a Brand new baby skeleton horse. Yeah. Okay, but we had it we gotta have a name for these that's not skeleton horse because that implies that they're actual horses too. There's no actual horses in this world. There's just these weird crab horses things that look like skeletons. Let's were let's call them... um We can't call them horses if there's no other horses.
00:28:59
Speaker
What if they are just called fucking horses? Like, they're just like... They're the the equivalent of horses. Like, you go around planet, it's like, oh... This is a horse. Well, it doesn't look like our horses. Well, who cares? Fuck you.
00:29:12
Speaker
ah This is our version of horse. does if you remove all the skin and flesh from our horses. Okay, fine. So your horses have too much waste on them. What they do with all that, like, skin and and and fur and mane? Yeah, like, what is that for? okay so...
00:29:32
Speaker
They're horses. That is horse. Horse. Capital H. Horse. Horse. Whizzy. Horse. No, it's not that we're saying horse.
00:29:43
Speaker
That is exactly what you're saying, so I don't think that we want to go there. Horse. Or do we? No, I gotta ask. Because anything that lays eggs means it doesn't have to be... like There's a lot of creatures that lay eggs, right? But it has to be fertilized for a baby to happen. Do these fucking things just lay eggs whenever like a chicken?
00:30:08
Speaker
Or is it only when they want to have babies? Because otherwise that'd be very... like There's fucking horse eggs everywhere. Well, only that, but, like, you've got to deal with this calcium deposit, like, until it gets big enough to fall off of you. That's unpleasant. It sounds like a cancer.
00:30:24
Speaker
Well, I was gonna use the word tumor, but there's no but there's no flesh, so it can't be, so... have bone tumors. Can you? you have bone cancers and stuff. You have cancer on fucking anything. That's fucked up.
00:30:36
Speaker
It is fucked up. Okay. We'll call them... whole Like two O's. Horse. Horse. Two O's, two R's. Horse. Horse.
00:30:48
Speaker
Horse. Okay. um Yeah. So what you're really asking is how do these things fuck? No, we don't want to go there. i was just saying, like, is it that fucked up? We're like, oh, here's your scrambled horse egg. We're not going there.
00:31:03
Speaker
they they have Do they have bone chickens? and don't think so. Okay, chickens are just normal chickens or whatever, whatever fowl they get their breakfast eggs from. Yeah, sure. There's there's birds or reptiles or mammals. like Like, every single animal is kind of normal except for these fucked up horses.
00:31:22
Speaker
I mean, I mean, you guys, you're herd animals that they may look look a little different, but like you can recognize them. Cows have a single horn or unicows. You know what? Chunky unicorns.
00:31:37
Speaker
No comment. All So back to how these, how these horses fuck. We don't have to go into that detail. i was just asking as a, as a, as, as an intrigue. Janelle, the people are going to want to know.
00:31:49
Speaker
This isn't that type of podcast about discussing how animals fuck. That's a different podcast. Not one of ours. I'm sure there's nature but documentary podcasts out there where they discuss plenty of that shit. Janelle, the people are going to want know.
00:32:03
Speaker
This is a world building podcast, not how animals fuck podcast. kind We will kick that can down the road. Where did baby horses come from?
00:32:16
Speaker
Horse. Horse. Where baby horses come from? This is so fucked up. But you know what? This is exactly what this podcast is about. This is exactly what we the idea was here. Baby horses. Okay, so we've got... You know what? I think we're good on animals right now. This world has all the normal animals that you would find on our planet except for the horses. Yeah.
00:32:41
Speaker
Okay. do they have miniature horses? what are the ponies called? Poonies. Okay, yes. They're called poonies. Do they have zebras? Debras. No, they have zebras.
00:32:52
Speaker
Zebras. No, it's just regular. It's a zebra. Are zebras normal are they also... Yeah, okay. So here's the thing. Yes. There's no horses, but there are zebras. And different cultures...
00:33:08
Speaker
domesticated them differently in different places on in the world. So they've evolved. One evolved, they have a skeleton on the outside, and one evolved not to. Janelle, you've shown me some fucked up animals in this world.
00:33:20
Speaker
Yes. I think that's exactly what happened. Fucking, do you have lizards with no legs. Legless lizards are cool. They're wrong. Either be a lizard or a snake. Make up your fucking mind. what are you going They're an evolutionary in-between. They're they're lizards.
00:33:38
Speaker
They're not even snakes. Yeah. They have eyelids. fucked up. And they have ear holes. don't like it. Give them. Someone give them. They can drop their tails. Like, lizard snakes can't do that. Well, yeah, but... Okay, don't even get me started on, like, the fact that a noodle can actually have a tail still.
00:33:57
Speaker
It's everything after their cloaca. That's their tail.
00:34:02
Speaker
I know too many animal facts, okay? I know, and yes, but like but why why does it have to be a tail? Why can't it just be more body? The tail is more body. a snake it is.
00:34:14
Speaker
on a lizard it can fall off. Okay. Someone get these poor bastards some legs, okay? You see Jericho out there catching these poor legless lizards. Drying them was super glue and, like, puttinging putting little action figure legs on them. Ditching, like, other like lizards' legs on them.
00:34:31
Speaker
Fucking making, like, fucked up, uh, what's it called? Franken-lizards. Franken-lizards. Leave the slow worms and legless lizards alone. They're cool. We'll have to agree to disagree on that.
00:34:43
Speaker
Okay, so let's talk about culture. All right. So got to ask this again because I'm not sure if we were super clear on it before.
00:34:54
Speaker
Do these worlds know of each other? Maybe in a roundabout way? Because they have ruins, right? Right. um Do they know that the other planet up there is full of people that just looks like exactly
Mythology and Beliefs of the Twin Planets
00:35:08
Speaker
like them? They're doppelgangers. I think there's some people that know.
00:35:10
Speaker
And are these people deemed crazy? I think i think they're they're looked i think they're kind of looked down upon. um Okay. It's like the people are like, I saw a aliens. Yeah, right.
00:35:22
Speaker
Well, like, no, i found I found this. I was in ah and this old ruin and I found ah fucking picture of my dad. Like, you know, like. haven't seen my dad in 40 years. Like, it's, yeah, something like to that effect, right? Like, certainly there'd be, like, hints and stuff.
00:35:38
Speaker
Mm-hmm. But I think maybe that the people don't want to think about that. because i mean, would you? Like, what's other me doing up there?
00:35:51
Speaker
Hope she's not making a fool of herself. I mean, yes, so I question everything, Janelle. So, like... Yes, I would want to know. But I can see where that sort of thing isn't productive because, OK, there has to be some something that's like causing people to like not have time to.
00:36:13
Speaker
Like waste to do that, like maybe. i mean, after like their civilization resets every time they fucking move planets, um their time is focused on rebuilding society.
00:36:27
Speaker
and but they don't even know that because they so when do they crash land when they hop planets so they just forget everything well you have different generations right yeah but like you think the adults would teach their children hey hey don't make the same up mistakes that we did try to be better or like hey kid this is how you ride a bike like how my so like on the on the other planet yeah so that probably happened but then like you get people like fucking elon musk and And fucking, um... Putin.
00:36:58
Speaker
And then they're like... I don't care. I want all the horses for myself. Can you imagine? know there's that picture of Putin on a horse? A horse! Well, that would be fucked up.
00:37:11
Speaker
He'd probably like that. Alright, anyway. So...
00:37:16
Speaker
I think that like early days of the... What are we going to call these people? would say, what are these planets called? We have to start with planet names. Okay. This is Earth. We are Earthlings.
00:37:29
Speaker
What these planets? do they have the same name? Is it planet 1, planet 2, planet a planet b
00:37:37
Speaker
Or is it a palindrome? Well, palindrome is ah says a says, or a palindrome would the name spelled the same way, both ways. But is it one of those situations where it's spelled...
00:37:50
Speaker
It is a different name spelled backwards. Okay. I'm making this from are very complicated because now we have to try to think of a name that makes sense both directions. I'm just an anagram. So if you're if you're doppelgangers in space and you leave your planet that's dying and you go to this new planet, you're probably going to call it.
00:38:13
Speaker
New whatever, right? So just guess a different name every generation, every cycle. That would be very interesting, wouldn't it? These people would have the most fucked up record books, like history books. How do you even teach history in this world? You don't. and At a certain point, the world ends. And so history ends.
00:38:31
Speaker
So just it's a complete reset. Yeah, that's fucked up. So they leave and yeah then they. So when they leave, do they carry any history with them? Well, sure. But then, you know, history gets lost to time.
00:38:44
Speaker
So between each cycle, how long, like how long are these cycles? Many generations? I would like thousands of years, I would think, right? Yeah, for enough for like a society to be rebuilt and like an old, like their culture to be recycled. Yeah.
00:38:57
Speaker
Okay. Because and here's the thing. Oh, maybe, maybe it's less takes less and less time each cycle because they find more things.
00:39:09
Speaker
Right. but It's easier to rebuild every time. Yeah, so like you you the first time this happens, you go to the new planet. Okay, cool. You fuck it up again. And so you go back to the old planet. But like this is like thousands of years and nobody knows anything anymore.
00:39:30
Speaker
But then there's people there, right? Like that's the that's the thing that's fucking me up a little bit. So, like remember like, there's a lot of, like, conspiracy theories about our own world. It's like, oh, like, ancient Egypt was built by aliens that came from another world or whatever. So, like, if that was true, like, you have these aliens come in and there's already humans here. The aliens built the pyramids or whatever.
00:39:52
Speaker
So, like, it could be a situation in this world where it's like, oh, here come some aliens, which are not really aliens. And they come here. They kind of help rebuild society. But then, like, they're kind of lost to time, like the pyramids. They're the gods.
00:40:05
Speaker
Oh my god. They're fucked up. You know how there's like the whole i am my own grandpa situation? Yeah. I am my own god. So these people these these people caught in a vicious cycle of like, God came down and helped us rebuild society and then...
00:40:24
Speaker
We fucked up the planet. We destroyed it. We gotta leave. And then the people on the other planet, are these people leaving, were like, oh my god, there's gods coming here and they're coming to rebuild our society. And it's just like this never-ending vicious cycle of like every so many thousands of years, this like one ship of people leaves and they're treated as gods on the other planet. Yeah, except for the very first time.
00:40:48
Speaker
And they fucking have to build like space Noah's Ark to like fly to the other planet. Yeah. and But, like, there's record, like, there's remnants of each of each of those, like... The ships. Yeah.
00:41:03
Speaker
But, like, you know, they would end up in different parts of the planet, so it would take a while for anybody to start noticing a trend. Like... Yeah, like, how many cycles has this happened? and There's probably some, like, lunatic out there, quote-unquote, that's like, guys, this has been happening for for for so many cycles. Yeah, yeah, go back to the loony bin. Or...
00:41:25
Speaker
that's what causes the the great upheaval is this this really this this stark break in um ideology it's like no like we've been doing this before we we keep doing this and everyone's and there's other wow that just reminded me of dream i had yesterday when i was in my so this guy develops a cult and the cult is the one that forms the ship and then leaves well no like it just like You have these diametric opinions like of whether we it's the same cycle or if it's just something else.
00:42:00
Speaker
Right. And maybe that causes a war because, you know, wars happen. Yeah. Wars happen over very different opinions and money and religion. And yeah. Okay. So the first time they go over to the, there's no one on that planet. So they're there little fresh start, but they have technology, but like they don't have a lot of it.
00:42:22
Speaker
So eventually they become more primitive as ah their technology breaks down and then they become more primitive and then they they, you know, but then again, they come up again. So, okay, so I think we're steering away from the prompt here, doppelgangers. How are these planets having the same identical people on them, even if they go through the same vicious cycle again and again and again and again and again? Because it's the same genetic code.
00:42:48
Speaker
Okay. Right? something Something about when they first came from one to the other, And they populated this new planet. We'll call it... B?
00:43:09
Speaker
Planet A, Planet B, but they're like A-Y-E or whatever, Planet A, then Planet B, B-E-A. B-E-A. But they're acronyms, so it's like... Acronyms?
00:43:23
Speaker
like If it's like B-E-A, it would be like Better Environment... Better environmental biome or some shit. So you name your planet an acronym like fucking NASA? I don't know.
00:43:37
Speaker
i don't know these people. No. Okay. So they, they, they, they they land. They, not everybody can come though. Right. Not everybody can.
00:43:47
Speaker
Again, it's like Space Noah's Ark, where they probably take so much with them. They take a handful of people, handful animals. of course, there's there's lots of politics and there's lots of... um involved in who gets to go and who doesn't.
00:44:02
Speaker
um
00:44:06
Speaker
So, they there they they get their planet like, oh my god, this looks just like ours. Weird. Except that... I wouldn't fucking...
00:44:17
Speaker
It's not abandoned. There's still people there. The sun just sets in the east instead of west because it's going out the same way. um Unless their compass is somehow backwards.
00:44:33
Speaker
What if the what if the the the new world they called Wittershins because it's going the opposite direction? You've not heard this word. Okay. Wittershins is a word that refers to counterclockwise.
00:44:49
Speaker
I have never heard of that term before. That's not surprising. I think it's more prevalent in like Wiccan paganism. okay so what do you call the other planet then if you're going this route you call it whatever you call it when you decide to name the planet when you first like okay yeah we're calling this new york
00:45:21
Speaker
yes the planet in new york When it's spelled N-U. N-U. N-U.
00:45:31
Speaker
Oh, maybe, yeah, maybe they named it after the horses. Because... Horsville? <unk> Um...
00:45:48
Speaker
and then the other player the name wooder shins but then after a while Yeah, maybe somehow that works out. it's just just Let's just say somehow that works out.
00:45:59
Speaker
It all works out in the end. Yeah. Okay. We are getting way off in the weeds and I don't know. it's going to happen a lot. Yes, it is. But I think that's part of the the charm. This is why i was wondering if you we should have some sort of structure.
00:46:13
Speaker
Well, I mean, we do better just talking to each other. I know. That's true. If we have a strict structure to follow, going to one of those situations like, okay, here's my flashcards. Fuck the flashcards. Let's just do this. Wing it. You heard it here, folks. Janiel says, fuck the flashcards.
00:46:32
Speaker
drop the F-bomb a lot. That bothers you. I don't care. That bothers you? Go fuck yourself.
00:46:40
Speaker
Why are you listening to an explicitly tagged podcast? This is not for kids. for kids. No, but we could do a kid episode maybe once in a while. Kid friendly. For Easter.
00:46:53
Speaker
For Easter? Here's our Easter episode. I don't know why. Why is my brain like that? Here's our Easter episode, a planet full of bunnies. Yeah, for no reason, just Easter. like No reason. i don't know.
00:47:06
Speaker
Yes, we're focusing on the Easter Bunny part of Easter. Not anything else. That's the the the Easter Bunny part. That's the best part of Easter. I kind of feel like we're done, but like we haven't really done it.
00:47:20
Speaker
We spent too much time on the fucking physics of the planet. And how horse fuck. No, we didn't because you didn't want to get into it. Yeah, we're not going that way. This is a not safe for work podcast in terms of language.
00:47:35
Speaker
We're not discussing that.
00:47:41
Speaker
Though morbid curiosity has arisen in me.
00:47:47
Speaker
Do males or horses have a penis? No. The females do. Gross. Wait, why? Why is that gross? I'm trying think of like...
00:48:00
Speaker
No, like... Okay, maybe maybe their biology is completely different. They make babies a different way. They don't need the use of a penis. So... Everybody needs the use of a penis. Okay. um That's not true.
00:48:13
Speaker
um No, no, no. So, check it. Female horses. Instead of the males, like, giving the material...
00:48:26
Speaker
the female horses suck it out of the males. They take it. Okay. Yeah. That way we've got female empowerment. Sweet.
00:48:37
Speaker
Not to like all you guys that are listening are are fine. Probably. Okay. Finally, we went there. We talked about how, how the horses fuck. Okay. So it's, it's a transmission of genetic material. Well, I mean, that's what that is, right? Like,
00:48:56
Speaker
But it's not via penetration, I guess. I mean, what would you penetrate? this It's all... Fuck! That's why I asked! I mean, maybe there's like ah some gland underneath the tail, at the base of the tail or something.
00:49:09
Speaker
Cool. Okay, we talked about fauna. What about flora? What kind of plants are there? I can discuss plants, because we've done... I feel like I've been like interrogating you a lot of things. um Yeah, I know! I feel so like...
00:49:21
Speaker
Well, you brought up the if the the stall horses. or Actually, no, I started the stall horses. And you're like, wait, now they got to have bone horses in our our ah in our world. um I mean, it gives a ah new meaning to the word boning.
00:49:37
Speaker
It's a big ball apparently, it's absorbent. The look on your face was just like, like morbid disgust and like... and so yeah, what what kind of plants? You know more about plants than I do. Okay, um, I'd say that there are trees, but they're also like just big ass
Floral Ecosystem and Pollinators as Livestock
00:49:56
Speaker
flowers. Like they leaf up and everything, but like, you know how like there's stems to flowers? These big ass trees are like stems to these enormous flowers. Oh, so like there's only shade while they're in bloom.
00:50:09
Speaker
Yeah, but you still have some leaves on them, like how flowers have leaves on when they're not in bloom. Oh, well, they have leaves, not petals. I see. Yeah, but they they eventually when they do bloom, they have like maybe like one tree has like a few blooms on it. They're just enormous. I like this a lot, actually.
00:50:24
Speaker
And so like I imagine like the allergy sufferers of this plant are in literal hell, but it makes like I guess you could use the ah like you can use the flowers for things like you can use to petal. You can use petals for medicine because they're huge and there's going plenty of them. um You can use and like, you know, as like cloth and like.
00:50:48
Speaker
Or that too. Yeah. I mean, probably use it for a lot of things because like, hell, what do you use actual flower petals for? Teas, medicines, like herbal remedies. And I'm sure if you had enough of them, can like people make jewelry and stuff out of flower petals and stuff. You can like cast them in resin or whatever or dry them. And fairies use them for clothing. So I mean, yeah. So you have big ass flower petals so can like dress yourself in flower petals. my gosh.
00:51:12
Speaker
The ships, the sails on the ships are like these just big flower petals. That's super cool. And so I imagine because the flowers are so big, you have some big pollinators.
00:51:22
Speaker
I was going say, and there's some big bees. You got to have some like medium-sized dog-sized pollinators. And... and When you pollinators, you gotta have hives. can imagine these hives being in... Basically carved out of rock faces. So, like, some of these caves, you're like, oh, don't go in that cave. That's a fucking beehive. Um... And... I think we should call them paul i think they would call we should call him pollinators. Pollinators?
00:51:49
Speaker
Not bees, yeah. They're pollinators. And... I imagine, like, if people were kind of living in this much harmony with nature, um especially, like, dressing themselves in flower petals or whatever and using the flowers to make tea, medicine, food, what have you, they kind of live in harmony with these these pollinators. Maybe that's how they get honey. Like, they do have people who specialize in, like, it's almost like livestock because so big. um We're like, oh here's my farm where I have, instead of sheep, they're my bees. They're my pollinators. And there's somebody who goes in there and just, like, scrapes
00:52:23
Speaker
body off the walls of this cave because that's just where they they i i'm really enjoying this and so would there so with no trees means there's no wood well i mean there's there there trees they're like they're like woody bases because to support that much weight of like a flower like that like basically if you're imagining like a tree-sized flower there still has to be something to support that that fauna that floor i mean the walls of the flower would be super goddamn thick Well, I mean, like the the, I mean, there's like these plants die, right? So when they die that you can harvest like the wood or whatever, or if it's like in the way of agriculture or whatever, you probably could take some of these plants down and use the heartier bits.
00:53:11
Speaker
As wood. Oh, so they die. So unlike trees who don't die, these... Trees die? Not every year. not every year, no, no. but I'm talking to like ah an old tree dies.
00:53:23
Speaker
Sure, but like... So do these flowers, like... They go and wither away every year, so that's why you can have, like, excess flower petals. Like, they they have, like... They drop their petals. They basically have, like, a month or something when they're in bloom, and then they all kind of fall apart, but it's different species. So, like, these pollinators are busy year-round unless there's a winter season, and they all hibernate or whatever. um but I'm sure there's different species of these big flowers that bloom throughout the year because that's how things work in our world. You have flowers that bloom the moment there's a warm day.
00:53:55
Speaker
You have flowers that are blooming. Rocus is. Yep. And you have them wait late into the fall as well. You have them blooming in fucking, you know, if there's warm days in December, they're out there. Oh, it's warm up.
00:54:07
Speaker
Oh, yeah, exactly. And that's why bees in our world can survive in harsher months because they have these flowers that are very resilient to the weather. Okay. I'm really digging this whole like pollinator, like shepherd situation a lot.
00:54:25
Speaker
Because I just like bees. And I imagine like having a big, help like big friendly bee. It's like a sheep bee. I'm picturing like bumblebees. I don't know. if Yes, bumblebees. Like big, fat, adorable, fluffy bees.
00:54:38
Speaker
With stingers? I imagine like like if you piss off a ram, it's going to kick your ass. So maybe piss off a pollinator, it's going to sting you. And that probably won't be good because this thing is probably. Oh, it'll stab you. Yeah, you die. You die. Yeah. I'm just picturing like strapping like a hard nut, like a like a yoke or something to the like when these big bumblebee looking things and like they're going and they're like pulling carts and shit. That's adorable.
00:55:09
Speaker
Can you tame the pollinators? I guess you can tame sheep, but are they... They have the intelligence of sheep, or they bugs? These big bugs? Um, I mean...
00:55:21
Speaker
They go out and pollinate and they come back. So, i mean, that's just what bees do. Yeah. So like like if you have a beehive in your yard, bees are to come and go. So I'm actually thinking, is it possible that these bees, since they're so damn big, that they are kind of like sheep in a way and they get shorn once a year? That'd be cool.
00:55:39
Speaker
but he just gets so big and fluffy and he just trim them, them a little trim. And that, yeah, you can weave the fibers. Okay. I like that. um I was just thinking whether you'd, you'd eat them or not. I don't know.
00:55:51
Speaker
Bug meat. I mean, people eat cheap. I mean, there there is meat in there. People eat bugs. You asked. I know, but like, because they're producing honey, and because they're producing fibers, you wouldn't need to. I'd say they're more like a livestock in terms of like material and honey. They're not meat. They're not meat livestock. So, do we have meat?
00:56:17
Speaker
Well, you can't eat the zorses unless you have a crab, like a crab crusher, like a Where it was like things like crushed crab legs. You wouldn't want to eat them anyway. wouldn't want eat horse meat.
00:56:28
Speaker
So like there are some cultures in our world that eat horse. And ah heard it's very lean because they're they're horses. So yeah, it's probably the best meat, quality meat in the world. Yeah, the Mongols were were horse people. They horse milk, horse cheese.
00:56:45
Speaker
They ate horse. Yeah, they lived by the horse. Died.
00:56:51
Speaker
So yeah, we have to have some kind of meat, livestock, animal, like, for example, cow.
00:57:01
Speaker
Are there cows or cow-like animals on this planet that we get meat and milk from? i think so. Maybe not all worlds will have that equipment. I think so, right? that du there's There's some... Oh, but what if they weren't mammals?
00:57:14
Speaker
We have milk a lizard? Lizards don't make milk. Horses don't lay eggs. By definition, it's a mammal if it makes milk. Okay. Here, what I'm saying is, is they don't have to be furry.
00:57:27
Speaker
They're scaly mammals? Yeah. Yeah, they're scammals. Scammals? Like fucking, um, I don't i don't know. Maybe they can just be like cow.
00:57:40
Speaker
yeah But and what how, like, which which which way are these cows different than earth cows? Um, maybe they're smaller and they have, God, the things I've just been thinking of are horrific. um We went places.
00:57:57
Speaker
Ooh. Um...
00:58:00
Speaker
Fuck, I don't know. They're cows. They're miniature cows that, hmm, they, trying to think of biology and like, they're winged cows.
00:58:16
Speaker
People ride them and fly them places. Yeah, but you got the pollinators too to do that. You can't, well, I guess you can't ride them, but they can, like, parasail them. like Have you not seen whatever movie I'm thinking of that you wrote on bees?
00:58:35
Speaker
I'm imagining these pollinators being the size of sheep, and, like, I guess you uncomfortably ride a Okay, so if they're, okay, the size of the sheep, then, okay, then sure, maybe not. A child could ride a sheep. but A child could ride a pollinator, but.
00:58:46
Speaker
Okay, so, like, real-life buffalo wings? Here's your buffalo wings, sir. This doesn't taste like chicken at all. Oh, it's actual beef! Okay, flying cows, sure, why not?
00:58:58
Speaker
would say flying pigs, but fuck flying pigs. Why? Because it makes things, like when you had the saying, when pigs fly. but buffalo wings sounds better. Okay.
00:59:10
Speaker
Winged buffalo. Or cow-like buffalo creatures. How about we call them like buffers? Buffers? Yeah, buffers. That way can have buffa wings. Buffa wings. Here's your buffa steak.
00:59:25
Speaker
Your buffa wings. Your buffa milk. Okay. That must be a pain to keep them corralled. How do you corral a flying giant flying creature? Well, theyre their mentality is like cows, so... They want to stay in a herd.
00:59:40
Speaker
They really just want to eat. Yeah. And be lazy. Yeah. So I imagine like evolution has kind of almost taken her wings away. Like they have very small wings. They actually don't fly. There you go. There you Fucking ostriches. So like, oh, evolution said, yeah, you're you're just too fat and lazy to fly anymore. I'm just going to slowly strip these away from you. So, okay. So what if there are other like creatures that do fly, like other bovine looking things that do fly? They're just flightless animals.
01:00:12
Speaker
They're like a flightless variety of buffers. And wild buffers are out there flying around majestic. And they come in different sizes. I like this. So what what sort of crops are we growing? I'm trying to think of something that's like...
01:00:29
Speaker
Okay, what if it's what if it's like an ear of corn, but when you peel back, they're just like little tomatoes. Tomatoes in the cob? Yeah. Okay, but like to think of something like not entirely earth inspired, these tomato like things purple. There are purple varieties tomatoes, but. Yeah, they're blue. Blue.
01:00:52
Speaker
Blue tomatoes out of cob? Yeah, we'll call them. ah Blue bees. Bluebees. Yep. Bluebees. Done. yeah Come on, honey. Eat your bluebees.
01:01:05
Speaker
think you're big and strong. but if you eat too many, you'll turn blue. What if that's a thing? ah this fucking guy walking around and he's to like blue like blue tinge oh i had too many blue bees what if yeah what if the people are blue tinge because of the amount of blue bees that they that can't the only crop they have originally maybe that you know you you know that like flamingos are pink because of all the shrimp they eat yeah they're also birds but whatever birds tend to have like that some birds have a very diet but like
01:01:40
Speaker
Raptors eat meat. Wingo's eat shrimp. Okay. Yeah. So,
Cultural Impact of 'Bluebees' and Podcast Conclusion
01:01:44
Speaker
okay. But what ah originally? All right. Originally like early ah denizens of... So Space Nose Arcs crashes down and they bring with them some materials that includes bluey seeds.
01:01:57
Speaker
Mm-hmm. Gotcha. Yeah, so like Neanderthals here developed differently. So like maybe there was an abundance of blue bees. And because of that, they started turning. It just just made them like a bluish color. And yeah then like they just kept reproducing and like that became part of their genetics.
01:02:18
Speaker
It's like slightly blue tinge skin people. Yeah, but not but not everybody. I don't think I don't think everybody. Right. Because like it depends on where you live. Like i imagine like people who live in very arid or very cold climates on this planet.
01:02:31
Speaker
ah They wouldn't have access to that at all. So it would be more like whatever than that natural skin tone at this planet is. Yeah. Varying skin tones are, again, that's how our world works. You get a different skin tone for different parts of the world. That's just how that happens. That is indeed how it happens. You know what, Janelle? I think we've talked long enough about this world.
01:02:54
Speaker
I think we've done a good job building it, populating it with some really crazy shit. And... I think this is a good place to end it.
01:03:06
Speaker
i agree. Okay. Well, dear listeners, if you enjoyed this and we hope that you did, stay tuned for next week when you get the other half, the part where we play in the space, if you will.

Narrative Setup: A Visitor's Mysterious Map
01:04:39
Speaker
It is dawn in Widershen, one small, humble village. Farmers who are attending to their crops and their pollinators.
01:04:50
Speaker
These people are just starting their day when they notice a peculiar sight on the horizon. An outsider coming from some far off town on horseback.
01:05:02
Speaker
He's dressed in regal armor, carrying a sword at his side. his saddlebag, he has a peculiar object. Seems pretty out of place compared to everything else on his person.
01:05:16
Speaker
A bronze tube. And he fetches that tube and pops it open and slides out a very old looking map. He looks upon it with a smile as he ventures forward to this small unfamiliar town.
