The Creature Report: Episode 27, Panic! In The Jar

The Creature Report: Episode 27, Panic! In The Jar

What's wet, hungry, and made entirely out of either many, MANY tongues or one LARGE tongue? It's this week's Creature Report creature! We're joined today by Constance Community College student and local little guy Mincus Von Smurdlehoff as we explore Constance's Jar Museum and learn a thing or two about what Panic! At the Disco and Jonathan Frakes have been up to in the past few years (spoiler: it's not great news!). Hell, we might even get a roomba reference IF you're lucky.

Content Warnings:

slight body horror, mention of Brendon Urie

The Creature Report: Episode 25, Thorenguard

Out for a day in the park, you'll never know who you'll find- or what you'll find! Take Thorenguard, for example. Thorenguard was minding her own business when suddenly, approaching them came anchor Val Petrone and, guest of the episode and the official creature therapist of Creature Report, Jess Lynne! Get to know our new friend with us as we talk what might legs be (conceptually), how those eyelashes get to look so good, and one (or two) of the many misogynistic men of the 90s (and no, it's not Dame Judi Dench).

Did you leave out the chickie tendos again? Great- now we know where they went, at least. This week, we're analyzing the Tender Angel, a beautiful creature with *checks notes* translucent wings, eats with it's backside, and a huge donger. Thankfully, we're not in this alone, as we're joined with one of the leading experts of the crypto-field, codename Professor Einstein Erudition! So join Val, the Professor, Tender Angel, and Bjork for a fun night time hang in the kitchen!

The Creature Report: Episode 23, New Stepdad

A smoky bar, 7 ft tall people, and a creature who almost could be Billy Joel, if Billy Joel's eyes were shaped like Massachusetts  (both in eye shape and in pupil). Welcome back to a regular episode of Creature Report, featuring our friend looking for a new friend, codename Conrad Growler (cool name, right?). Join Conrad and I as we introduce ourselves to a big, beefy, POSSIBLY many armed possibly not many armed New Stepdad. Happy Father's day?

The Creature Report: Episode 22, Jim....or is it Tim? the Intern

As we escaped the clutches of Qwerty last week, we take a lil break from creatures to let you meet our new intern! This is a recording from the Intern's first day we accidentally took, but it had some great stuff regarding creature exploration and how we do things here at the Creature Report studios! Great thanks to newest member of the team....uh....Tim? no no, wait. Jim. Jim the intern. 

Content Warnings: though no explicit nature occurs in this episode, we will be talking about HR compliancy/safety in a light manner.
