Episode 17: Come out, Come out, Assassin!

CW: Suicide, sexual assaultIt isn't their usual fare, but sometimes some heavy things happen in Dirty Pair so we're warning you ahead of time: yes, someone kills himself and yes, there is an extremely uncomfortable scene between Kei and an assailant that reminds us that 1980s culture was in fact full of this kind of misogyny and assault-as-flirting(maybe? Don't know why they depicted it this way if they just wanted to establish that--look, it doesn't matter, it's in there and it's bad and you should know ahead of time that it's there). Which is a shame, because this is otherwise an interesting episode that takes a more serious tone and has a mystery and a manhunt at its core. Also this podcast episode has a very brief discussion of Alan Wake II along with a reminder to ourselves that hey, SuperEGO was a fantastic podcast. We also get into the nitty and/or gritty of commercial space travel, drug addiction, and codebreaking. And melodicas. Melodicae? Those keyboards what you blow into.Next episode features cops, cops, and more cops! They all suck. You can find out the hows and whys of their suckitude when the podcast returns on December 28th, just in time for the New Year. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
