Episode 124: Atlantis Sinking

Least Haunted ·

2025/01/31

This is the story of what happens when no one gets satire or allegory. When generations of people fail to get the point and instead go searching for a metaphor. A cautionary tale about how fan fiction can potentially lead to genocide and aliens... A slippery slope that leads right into the very depths of the human imagination, and possibly to the bottom of the ocean itself. This is Atlantis!
