Them's The Vagaries #23: Return Of The Mummy

New episode in which an annoying steampunk man who hoped to get people to give him $15,000 dollars to make an album is called out on his bullshit, and spooky music and the possible causes for Mr. and Mrs. Sonic Youth breaking up are considered.

Also, an elaborate conspiracy theory regarding the fact that Rick Ross is not so much an actual person as a character or, even further, a robot controlled by an illuminati-esque board featuring amongst others Tupac.

25th episode, featuring done from the internet, is about the various happenings in White Girl Mob, from V-Nasty and Gucci Mane making a mixtape together for some reason to Lil Debbie getting fired from whatever it is she did, and also ASAP Rocky's 3 million dollar record deal in spite of his only-alright tape. And mixtape first impressions. It's also in a real studio.
