Jon: statement regarding the exploration of an abandoned chicken and kebab shop.
By this point i think Jane could come back and scream at Jon before running off and he just “Anyway...statement of joe spooky regarding sinister happenings.”
I mean, what exactly could he do to help? Call the police?
@@Izzy-iv8pr I want to believe that Tim actually heard Jon recording Joe Spooky's statement and joked about it
I THOUFHT THE CHICKEN AND KEBAB SHOP PART OF YOUR COMMENT WAS HYPERBOLE
@@foodforfaeries AHAHAHAHA
ITS A GREAT MOMENT
'He threw the fingers off-handedly'. I mean yeah, I guess he did.
THANK you
I missed this in the audio and nearly choked reading this, thank you
16:23
How did I miss this?!?!?!!!??
Thank you! 😂😅
I would’ve missed this, so cheers for pointing it out :)) great joke, 10/10
you can tell how done jon is in each episode by how frustratedly he says "head archivist of the maGNUS iNStItuTE"
Sometimes when he says "statement of..." he already sounds to tired. GET SOME REST, JON
MAGHNUHS. INSITITOOT.
@@ocean7889 oey ya got a loicense for yer institoot?
Maggot... Hm.. Magnus Institute
London.
Okay but why is no one talking about the connection to episode #5, "Thrown Away." Remember how when they found the garbage bag full of teeth, it was said they were somehow all the same exact tooth? What if they were being pulled over and over from the same person, only to regrow instantly like in this episode with the fingers?
huh..... there might be something there
Yes!! When it got to that part my mind went to that too. The charred paper with prayers sound like something this guy would do. I don't quite get the doll heads, but the heart doesn't seem too far fetched. I compared the locations. Higham Hill Road, Walthamstow, and Lancaster Road, also in Walthamstow. It's 0,3 miles apart. We got him!!
More people associate that with Episode #34, "Anatomy Class" and assume it comes from the bodies of those students.
actually, i remember it being said that while they were the same tooth, they were all from different people, so it's not that
@@Ilikebats123 Yeah, that would also fit. I guess the students practiced making body parts
maybe the REAL meat was the friends we made along the way
Thanks, I hate this
Maybe the friends we made along the way was the real meat all along.
Nice
I laughed way too hard at this!
Thank you, I hate it
Good lord I love the fact that whenever we got a cannibal in this show they r so upfront about it. Like the priest in season one: "im gonna get to the cannibalism eventually"
And this guy: "I might have just eaten a woman. Welp. What can u do." I dunno Craig. Put it another way maybe??
Like what are they supposed to do about it though? Find the person's family and say "So I ate your loved one, but it was an accident"?
I think the more concerning part is the whole 'You know, I kinda wish I knew which meat it was so I could know how it tasted'
@@kingofpoliwhirls7464 I mean if you accidentally eat a human, at least knowing how it tasted would be good
@@kingofpoliwhirls7464 If no, you may have to eat somebody to know...
Mua hua hua hua hua hua huaaaaaaaa
@@kingofpoliwhirls7464 i mean if i accidentally ate a human i wouldn't want it to be for nothing, i'd at least want to know how it tasted

"I don't want my last thoughts to be lowkey racist."
Same
Weirdly relatable.
Dude thats exactly what my brain would think! My anxietyyyy
I laughed so hard at that
@h value these nuts, idiot
I am probably a cannibal and it bothers me that I don't know which meat was human, is now my second favourite character presentation after: I am trevor, a heroine addicted vampire hunter. I once killed a human too but I have cancer so good luck taking me out before it does
Train girl's up there too
I love how the most reoccurring fears in this podcast are:
- fear of insects
- fear of disease
- fear of MEAT
and books! books have to be feared, too
@@MrIsizukuri books are likely the most feared thing so far on here
@@holycarp1676 Ehhh Id say so far theres more insects than books
Also fear of being alone
Fear of open spaces? (The sky and ocean one)
And maybe claustrophobia (a few tight space ones)
heat, darkness, and being lost for sure as well. and death.
Kinda the worst thing, or even the most relatable thing, about this episode is the idea of not being disgusted that you accidentally ate human meat but rather annoyed that you didn't know which meal you ate it in. That would definitely get me more than the idea of being a cannibal... but maybe that's just me haha
Nah, I get you. Like, if you're going to trick me about it, at least tell me right after so I can try and remember the experience, dang it! Then I can freak out properly and know what sort of taste to avoid from then on. XD
Schrodinger's Cannibalism
That's the worst thing? Not an actual cannibal cutting off a guys fingers?
@@kyakun5571 The worst part is the hipocracy.
I feel like this unintentionally opens up a great philosophical debate. Why are we ok with eating cows but not other people?
Personally, to me, its that we consider some of the human race to be intelligent, but we don't hold cows in the same regard.
The way he says 'I'm probably a cannibal' brings me so much joy
Why?😂😂
Enphasis in probably
@@niushasamie5775 He's probably a cannibal too ;)
I technically consumed human that wasn’t from me once
@@DeannaSusanHealy Good for you, buddy.
We know that supernatural things make the static louder, like when sasha's double talks, but has anyone else noticed that sometimes phrases that are read make the static noticable, too? When he says "meat is meat" you can hear it, or the book of dead episode when the beginning prose is read before the warning (or the warning itself?), it makes static, too.
I don't know if it's intentional or not, but I like the idea that just the written testaments still have a magic power to them when read aloud :0
Words hold experiences.
"I don't know if it's intentional or not, but I like the idea that just the written testaments still have a magic power to them when read aloud"
The concept at least is very intentional. It's been stated by Jon before that (as far as he knows) you can differentiate the real statements from the fake ones by the fact that the real ones won't record on computer and instead have to be recorded on tape.
It's because words hold power, it was said by that one guy who found the bone turners tale where he was waxing poetically about the power of language and the written word
I know that something bad it's gonna happen when strange music start playing in the background
I mean, the statements must have some degree of inherent power, or Jon wouldn't need to record them on tape. Like, that's the entire premise of the series - him recording some statements on tape because they refuse to go onto a computer.
Ah, yes. Another great episode written by Jonny "I've Never Eaten A Person" Sims. Love it.
So it took 72 episodes but this podcast finally made me involuntarily shudder. The description of the bolt cutter going through the Achilles tendon just... *shudder*
Yeah I winced.
I've noticed that Jonny-Sims-the-writer is very talented about describing sensations (I like how he describes smells as well)
The sharp left turn of the dude underneath the counter got me ngl.
I was convinced that the kid only getting to paint "Meat is Me" was going to summon some meat demon or some such, and the statement giver was making the statement about getting the kid killed.
"I saw a gaunt Chinese man underneath the counter."
*surprised pikachu*
Yeah, that description kept me up for a while after I heard it. I couldn't stop imagining the feeling.
i had to pause and take a moment to breathe when that part happened 💀
This was the first episode to make me legitimately scared, I think. The visualisation of someone staring up at you from the floor where you thought there was no one is one of my worst fears.
I couldn't agree more, for the first time I had to stop the chapter and take a break because I could see the men smiling. Well another fear unlocked
I mean it's pretty reasonable to be afraid of being chopped up alive by a cannibal killer :/
This is my fear too
I watch arguably too many crime dramas, and the thought that someone may be underneath my bed just 😱
Just, what's under there really? How often do you look underneath your bed? At this point, do you really want to look?
@@mechengr1731 don't, please just don't
@@mechengr1731 There is a large, muscular, aggressive ex-feral tomcat I rescued currently under my bed. He has become very territorial and protective. If a small Chinese man is also under there lurking with bad intent, I actually feel slightly sorry for him. Those claws are something else.
I feel stupidly atunned to this guy's surprise and shame of being lowkey racist, you could be stabbing me and for a second I would be like, yep I deserve this.
Yeah same really
*gets stabbed*
Me: "I probably deserved it sorry"
@@jackbelmont4389 anxiety mood
How was he racist?
@@Shemagh4 he assumed the man couldn't speak English because he was different race.
This guy: "I can excuse cannibalism but I draw the line at deception."
John Haan? He related to the guy with the same last name in the slaughterhouse episode? Edit: YUP! There it is.
Also, our dear Archivist VERY much needs to display more concern about Basira's call cutting out like that before he's able to warn her fully. I'll be exceedingly cross if something kills her and/or Daisy. They're both so cool....
Also, also, I like how there's an increasing level of respect/trust in Jon's voice when talking about Martin. Add in that he's the only one Jon's actually been able to get along with during his descent into paranoia, and it's very nice. I like it a lot.
Didn't either the cannibal or the zombie husband say "meat is meat" in the Oregon Trail episode? I agree with Craig's views on cannibalism 100%, but I hate to think the slogan kind of can be interpreted to mean that.
I think it was the slaughter house episode, and this is the guy who disappeared.
I can't take the way he says "kebab" seriously
he sounds like the word has personally offended him
Arbies... we have the *MEATS!*
Pfft! 😆
If I had a quarter for every time a Magnus statement started with the statement giver admitting to being a cannibal, Id have two quarters. Which isn't alot but it's weird that it happened twice.
Another episode trying to turn me into a vegetarian
DO IT
For me, it worked
Or a cannibal!
Another?
I mean technically human meat could be vegan
18:08
LEEEROOOOOOY JEEEENKIIINS
I was looking for someone to reference this! Thank you, you freakin legend 😂
Do you guys remember the episode, where a guy received envelopes of body parts, like fingers, toes, tongues, etc, that they would lose after receiving the envelope? I wonder if this man and cutting of these victims parts in this kebab shop is somehow linked to that
I mean, I wouldn’t say they’re directly linked, but there is a connection, yes. :)
This one is like the opposite of that one...
Ummm ismt the timeline out of order there, there werent in same period AFAIK
As a Catholic I can't help but notice that
*SPOILER*
Many episodes that touches on The Flesh seems to have Christian imagery like the perversion of Eucharist.
Seeing that the Eucharist is considered "The Body", it kinda makes sense and makes it creepier in a way.
I think it has something to do with what’s sort of touched on in this episode, how bread and wine symbolize the body and blood of Christ respectively
I once saw eucharist described as "ritual consumption of the body of an ancient demigod" and I will never not think that when I drive past a church now.
And the cannibal guide was a disgraced preacher
Considering Sims himself grew up Catholic, this doesn't surprise me.
I absolutely gagged when he talked about the achilles tendon--- AGH, that is my LEAST FAVORITE aspect of horror movies, and it gave me such a visceral response.
the scene from Pet Sematary
Seriously its the worst part of the human body (and im saying this as someone who has periods)
This has to be one of the funniest episodes so far! I laughed So hard at the beginning of the statement, especially "he had been disposing of the body in the way only a takeaway owner can. He went full-on Sweeney Todd." I had to pause to have a good laugh
His whole attitude is so "yeah so guess I'm a cannibal now whatever" also "Like I didn't want my last thought on Earth to be lowkey racist" holy fuck
remember sasha's "boyfriend"...? the name tom shows up everywhere....
Vilhelm Vidal Well English speaking people do tend to have a limited number of names to select from.
Cartoonist Corea English is weird. People make jokes about how frustrating it is that there’s so many “James Smiths” or “Marry Williams” there are but if you have an off name then they get all snooty and side like “OH WOW YOUR PARENTS JUST WANT YOU TO BE SUCH A SPECIAL SNOWFLAKE HUH. SO PRETENTIOUS.”
Even if you have a name and spell it not the way they do it’s ridiculous how angry people get over unique names...
@@trucetruce335 what english people are you speaking to?
@@jacthing1 Tom
@@trucetruce335 Haha yes. I think its low level OCD. Someone knows how to spell everything and somebody else wants to be slightly different and ruins OCD person's whole life. 😄
A few episodes back, someone commented about the horsemen of the Apocalypse, and the supposed absence of a Famine-like figure. I think we might've found that one.
Yep :)
Please elaborate I didn’t see those comments 😮
And that cannibal on the Oregon trail, right?
Meat, Bone, Hive, Web, Fire, Sight, Archive. What other factions are at play? Void for the three endless expanses we've had in previous chapters? Darkness?
there's being isolated too i think? naomi in one of the first statements read kept mentioning being alone
@@clanskrub665 I think that void and loneliness would be the same faction.
Also Lightning for the two Ex altiora stories and also something for all the claustrophobic stories (Lost Johns cave, person trapped in box, train full of mud, etc)
Death and the reaper, too
Doors/architecture aswell
Craig Goodall mentioned seeing a pile of fingers before he woke up. And since his hand had healed the fingers he lost, I think the original pile of them were his as well. Just cut off while he was unconscious.
No, dont think so. The ring indicates otherwise
@@Dumpknoedel those ones could have been from his other hand.
Hi guys, welcome to my tutorial, today we are gonna learn how to make a infinite finger farm!
“Picked up my fingers and tossed them offhandedly” that pun caught me off guard 😂
18:01 He should change his last name to Jenkins.
Alright guys LET'S DO THIS....
LEEEEEEEEEEROOOOOOOY
"See the world with the same eyes as a... real pig..." so you are a Hannibal fan as well then.
This is their design
Damn imagine being as much if an icon as *LEEEERRRRROYYYYYYYY*
Jenkins
i dont think i've ever heard someone say "kebab" with so much... vehement done-ness
I'm already pretty sarcastic, but I'm gonna try to be as sassy and sarcastic as Jon when he says "head archivist of the magnus institute"
If his fingers were cut off and then immediately replaced with new fingers, maybe this could be how so many copies of the same tooth were acquired in Thrown Away
Lol ...Offhandedly
Was that pun intended? 😂
Ok, I’ve been obsessed with this for the last two weeks and I've been taking notes since the beginning, so, I have this little theory about how the things/demons/monsters(? agrupate, or something like that.
At first I thought that they were like the most fundamental fears, but they are more specific than that, so now I think that they are more like the Endless (from The sandman by Nail Gaiman). Maybe some kind of separate beings that coexist in a very precarious balance, very related to morals and existential questions.
1. We have the Thing that is related to the book Ex altiora, the emptiness, the sky and the universe and all the things that we are nothing compared to, maybe deep waters too. So, is about how our existence doesn't mean anything. And that is the one that i’m the most sure about.
2. the Thing that is related to the bugs and the rotten meat, maybe being eaten too, but is kind of contradictory, because I think is more close to the filth and that is not quite edible(? Too disgusting.
3. the Thing with the spiders, that at first I thought they were with the bugs and the disgusting, but now i think they are completely separated. The spiders are probably more close to be related to the eyes, and being trapped and/or watched on their webs. I don't know, spiders have 8 eyes, so there goes my bet.
4. Michael, probably the twisted and the deformation of reality, like the stairs in the coffin. so the madness or hallucinations, even all the oniric kind of stuff.
5. The fire or the burned, the Thing with Agnes and the cult of the lightless flame. The ones that did the ritual in the woods, probably.
6. The Darkness that they talk about at the beginning of this episode, the man that died in the prison, and this Rayner guy that is probably similar to agnes but with his own weird cult/church of people.
7. I’m still not sure about the thing with the table, and Not!Sasha, and the stuff that almost “is” but not quite, like the vampires and the taxidermist.
Probably each one of these Things are related to one Lightner book or more.
This may be too much but I think that the Institute is working with the spiders and Agnes knew(?. And I don't trust Elias because he realized something about Not!Sasha and decided to not say anything.
That’s it, that's what I have, my thoughts at 3 in the morning.
And probably there are hundreds of comments just like this one.
ps. English is not my first language, so I apologise to whoever read this if everything is terribly written.
This is such an insightful summary of what's happened so far dude, I loved The Sandman! Also don't worry about your English, you're fine
Bro wait when did Elias mention our five a hint about knowing not!Sasha stuff
@@a.b.6689 I guess it's about him looking weirdly at not!Sasha when she changed at the end of s1.
well (spoilers i guess) you called an impressive number of entities
Holy smokes, as I was listening, my brother emerged from the darkness of the next room, completely silently, almost giving me a darn heart attack.
I'm *probably* a cannibal. I don't know for *sure* .
I was having lunch calmly because the last episode had nothing particulary weird and then this one begging with "i'm probably a cannibal", so it might no be the best idea to listen while eating
15:35 is so relatable
Honestly, I agree with the views of the subject on cannibalism.
The sequence with regrowing ankle and fingers reminds me of Resident Evil VII.
Martin, poor bugger.
There's actually a story about a rugby team that got stuck in the Mountains after their plane crashed And they were forced to eat their dead teammates And other Dead passengers I say If there is no other choice
@@jakevex4198 I know that story of course, though I didn't know it was a rugby team. Maybe there were several cases like that. Anyways, cannibalism out of necessity (not the ritual kind) has been practiced in so many instances, including people in communist dictatorships, colonists all over the world, and others. It's just a thing people do when there is no other option.
never thought I'd agree on that but as he said it i was like ...shit
@@Lightning-ik3so The funniest thing is Jonny Sims (the actor, not character) himself has a very similar opinion :D
@@cawareyoudoin7379
These cases are rather understandable, since it was for survival... For anyone interested in learning more, Caitlin Doughty has several vids talking about out of necessity cannibalism incidents on her channel (including the rugbymen one). She's always very respectful towards the victims and is quite funny too.
Now, for the *weird* stories of consensual cannibalism, may I introduce to anyone who's interested: (CW: amputation, body parts, murder)
-The guy who had to have his leg amputated after a motorcycle accident and who ate a bit of it with his consenting friends;
-The several mothers cooking and eating the placenta after birth (an interesting one was a nurse detailing her experience);
-And of course, the infamous Armin Meiwes and his _Cannibal_ _Cafe_ forum date... For some reason they ate the penis first
1:57 LOL I love how Jon is like "Welp, so much for that. Time to read a statement".
15:26 That . . . Is pretty funny.
21:16 When was Tom Han mentioned again? Killing Floor right?
Yes killing floor
That boltcutter bit really got me for some reason
Vivian Marko OH NO NONONO I JUST GOT THERE fu
Could this be the guy throwing stuff away in episode 5? Y'know, how the third bag was full of teeth, all the same tooth. The charred strips of paper with prayers on it sounds plausible too, I mean he is ranting about religion for whatever reason. Don't quite get the doll heads or exactly what's up with the metal heart, but doesn't seem too far fetched.
Update: I compared the locations (found on the wiki). This one's Higham Hill Road in Walthamstow, the one in Thrown Away is Lancaster Road, also in Walthamstow. I searched the route on google maps and it's 0,3 miles (about 0,5 km) apart. We got a culprit!
ooooo thanks for doing the research! I'd forgotten about episode 5 until another comment made a similar connection (though went slightly less in-depth)
Is it just me or whenever there's like a spooky thing happening There's a bit of static I just started the series so I don't know if that was a thing or not
it's most definitely a thing, it's been happening for a while
Jon: Welp I guess I’m a cannibal.
Wait this Tom Han also appeared in the episode "killing floor", when the protagonist finds him shooting himself with the electric gun and assumes he must be dead; but I didn't quite check the dates when the statements took place, so I can't tell which happened first. I believe that " Killing floor" is the first in chronological order: maybe he didn't actually die and gained some weird powers related to the meat. Also, no one would hire a serial killer, even on a killing floor.
I'm sorry if there are some mistakes, English is not my native language;)
really liked the protagonist for this one. also, another strangely religious cannibal!! i picked up on something! very proud of myself
Leeroy sounds like the kind of friend we all need.
As an Asian myself I very much don't think that this episode is racist in any kind :) I mean yeh Asian food is kinda weird in Western eyes but just because this podcast has a character that is Asian doesn't mean they are hinting at it.
also where did I see the name Leeroy Jenkin before?
This episode I find to be the most horrific,,, all the amazing and gory details and the thoughts of your body being slowly eaten while still alive . . . I've watched Hannibal but this felt so much worse
Basira is in danger 👀
Half the comment section is either meat jokes or lamenting the podcast probably turning them vegetarian
did the kid also spray the words "silk will not stitch the butchers meat" on the walls of the hospital (episode 28)? I mean that statement was from 2015, this one from 2009 so the "kid" would be about 20 years old by then, but still, both slogans are meat related...
Meat is meat...
Meat is me...
Mmm
Meat is Meat
Meat is Me
Baba is You
John at 19:39 is so me xD I don't know why I find it so funny but it needs to be in the "tma is a workplace comedy" for this season xD
Mmm... Pancreas.
"I want to *feel* that pancreas."
/venom entered the chat/
I know they say TMA has an episode for every fear but I never expected them to get my very specific fear of my achilles being cut 😭
I’m either gonna become a vegetarian or a cannibal because of this series
How did it go?
same. personally i hope its cannibal
Me, who believes plants have souls:
them : the magnus institute has an episode for every fear
i thought they meant my fears of spiders and the dark and creepy not!humans not an : episode on spooky disturbing abandoned takeaway shop 3 weeks before i move to a house round the corner from a spooky abandoned chicken shop
Meat is Meat
Ain’t no way you have a fear like that 😭
@@lablabs2613 i didn't mean I have a fear like that. I mean I LITERALLY moved a few houses down to an abandoned chicken shop 🤣
It can’t be a coincidence that there’s a friend called Leroy who charges in unexpectedly in the episode about a fried chicken place?
I know TMA is going over almost all the fears in the world, but I honestly never knew a fear of meat existed, especially to the point of being mentioned multiple times in the series lol
soo there are different factions?
spider people
hive people
vampires
skin wearers
and fire benders??
“Inside the freezer…
…was absolutely nothing.”
I snorted.
Ah yess my favourite restaurant. FOOD
I might be going to hell for giggling at "he tossed my fingers *off-handedly*"
ITS THE TOM DUDE 👀
i knew haan look familiar
Different Tom. There are a few Toms around.
"picked up my fingers and tossed them offhandedly"
AYYYYY I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE
21:17 when I tell you my jaw freaking dropped...
Baby that's Shawarma
actually no it's not, döner is the correct name
"I'm probably a cannibal" will graham core
Anytime there is a cannibalism episode pls just put "maybe it's meat maybe it's human" so we know and we don't eat two dishes of fucking pastitsio right before listening to it
16:23 he picked up my fingers and tossed them OFFHANDEDLY
Glad that they're taking the loss of limb so well -^-
"I need to check the freezer"
Me: NO YOU FUCKIN DONT
"regarding his explorations of an abandoned chicken and kebab shop.."
I just choked on my coffee 😐😂
As a British human that's just about the funniest shit I've ever heard and I'm 2 minutes into this...
Well slap me one and put me down as terrified and incredibly entertained. The face under the counter terrified me right before our mans hit us with the ""I don't want my last thoughts to be lowkey racist" and I nearly woke everyone in my house from how loud I cackled.
Some story about cannabalism.
Me: Where is Basira? Is she Ok? Is she Safe?
I hope Basira is okay, when they lost connection it terrified me.
Is it just me or did jon sound kinda tired or fed-up when he read out the title and ep number?
Honestly, he sounds like me when I'm watching a show and they're focusing on the problem of the week even though some juicy new detail just got dropped about the overarching plot.
I'm at "There’s nothing inherently special about us." calling it right now Flesh
My theory from this episode and what we know so far:
Another mention to meat and to cannibalism. To be honest, I don't have a clear theory about this entity, only that it reminds me of one of the seven deadly sins: gluttony. But, gluttony is not just about food, it's about the constant need to consume, so if that was true the meat entity would be also related to episodes that are about consumption. Though, unfortunately I can't remember of any episode like this and I'm not really fond of going back and relistening or rereading the ones I've already did..>_
Truth. Even drug addiction is a kind of greedy consumption.
This episode made me genuinely nauseous. Not from the cannibalism, but from the dismemberment. 10/10 would horror again
I'm listening to this while re-ordering my family's books. Found a really old one and opened it - L'Occultisme Hier er Aujourd'hui - 😨 Lucky I don't speak French, imma tuck this one at the very bottom of the shelves 😅
it means yesterday's and today's occultism... so a history of the occult. spooky
Oh for- why is it that I always reach the meat episodes when I'm cooking???
The Magnus Archives fandom are constantly telling us that they “hit every fear” and listening in I’m like. Sure they’re hitting all the classics. Spiders, heights, killers and cramped tunnels. But then, Bang. They finally got me ✨personally✨ with the Achilles Tendon cut. (Thank you house of wax for that particularly specific fear of mine) 😅 I’m always so hyper vigilant with floorboards with huge gaps or beds with too much space underneath. 🙃
Guy in kebab shop: naughty boys get their legs cut by bolt cutters, snip snip!!
I can’t be the only one who finds this episode hilarious, right?
I got an Arby's commercial before this whyyyyyyy
Same
LEROY JENKINS!!!
Tossed the severed fingers *offhandedly-*
Didn’t expect my Achilles heel tendon getting cut fear to pop up but okay
I guess the TAKEAWAY from this episode is that meat is meat
Bastira: *probably dead or about to fall victim to smth extremely spooky *
Me: *pauses the episode to get some water while I rant to mom * So she's probably dead. *sits back down * It'd be really bad if he just picks up a statement after that and carries on like normal *plays episode *
Jon: *heavy sigh * Statement of-
Me: *throws phone *
72 episodes in and that was the first time I've shuddered, the achilles tendon being injured is one of my greatest fears.
