Dear listeners (all quintillions of you, apparently),
Have you ever discovered that your garage project is accidentally broadcasting to more beings than have ever existed on Earth? Have you ever had to file paperwork for interdimensional hazmat containment of celebrity Minotaur fur? Have you ever needed therapy because a fan from the Negative Space dimension kept erasing your achievements from reality?
No?
Well, Oliver and Felicity have, and they need to talk about it.
Episode 8: "Normalization" - Now Available
Warning: This episode contains dangerous levels of existential crisis, interdimensional gift basket trauma, and one (1) instance of Pan-Galactic Gin causing temporal vision.
After the reality-shattering revelations of Episode 5 (where Oliver discovered he's broadcasting to multiple galaxies) and the chaos of Episode 7 (where Vaeloria's enthusiasm literally broke our equipment), your hosts needed what the Galactic Magic Federation calls a "normalization session."
Translation: Oliver hasn't slept in a week and has created forty-seven pie charts trying to understand our viewership demographics, while Felicity is being stalked by an interdimensionally powerful elf who has created a musical playlist inspired by her whiskers.
This is fine. Everything is fine.

Technical Difficulties Report:
This episode experienced the following anomalies:
Storage Room 3 now exhibits signs of dimensional instability (the fur appears to be purring)
Our safeguards are technically holding but may not account for "enthusiasm-powered portal generation"
The narrative tuner has started displaying error messages in languages that don't exist yet
Oliver's pie chart software has achieved rudimentary sentience
Behind the Scenes:
The Producers have officially classified our situation as a "Category 7 Improbability Cascade," which means causality has essentially given up trying to make sense of BBN and is now just improvising.
We've been informed this is neither good nor bad—reality is simply working around us like water around a very confused stone.
Also, Vaeloria will be appearing every third episode going forward? The Producers call it "The Fangirl Dynamic." We call it "please send help."
A Note from Oliver:
I've come to realize that once you accept nothing makes sense, everything becomes possible. We shouldn't exist—a human with a garage-built radio accidentally connecting to fictional dimensions and broadcasting to quintillions—but we do. So we'll continue doing what we do best: bringing you interviews from worlds that may or may not exist, while slowly losing our grip on what "reality" even means.
Also, if anyone knows how to dispose of Level 6 Dimensional Hazards, please contact us immediately. The fur has started harmonizing with itself.
Episode Details:

Listen Now:
This interdimensional broadcast was facilitated by advanced AI narrative enhancement systems, which are apparently far more powerful than their creator ever intended or can psychologically process.
Remember, dear listeners: If reality stops making sense, you're probably tuned to the right frequency.
Frequency-adjusted regards,
Oliver & Felicity
