WSFC - Broadcast 0005 - July 8th

Welcome back, listeners. { static } here, same as usual, bringing you your up-to-date news here in the most amazing City in the multiverse.

First off, a quick message for some of our Named visitors, that's right, you folks listening in on your McAran CALL Devices: the folks over at McAran called and asked us to make sure that we let you know that they're working on a brand new software update for you all. So stay tuned as we wait for more details...

Meanwhile, over in Tomorrow, the St. Vidicon Science Academy is putting up their last call for folks interested in participating in the STEM fair. Apparently, a couple of teams who were going to be presenting appear to have... { his voice goes slow and ponderous as he's clearly reading some small print } 'exploded, transported themselves to another dimension, accidentally transported themselves to a week after the fair, and... turned themselves into llamas'. I'm... I'm not even sure how that could have happened, but there is a call for anyone who happens to know what llamas who used to be people might eat, since they are apparently very picky eaters. Huh. The more you know.

Apparently, officials have been scouring Fingerlane Docks down in Shadows since the Eye of Julius has yet to be found. Local criminals have taken to social media to complain about this invasion of what is clearly not their property, which has, in turn, led to a number of arrests due to incriminating data left on Foldbook by several displaced gang members. This has led to a reorganization of several of the smaller gangs as well as a membership drive. So, just to make this clear: if someone approaches you about an enriching opportunity, they are almost definitely not just 'happy to see you'. Also, you should probably try to get away if you can or go along with literally everything if you can't. Kneecaps are a terrible thing to waste, after all.

Down in Nightmare, Camp Sparkling Waters has opened its quaint gates-made-of-logs for their summer session. Interested parties who'd like a cabin, shared or private, and to get in on all of the friendly-to-all-ages activities that they offer should head to the main office or give them a call at { static } to reserve some time while the summer session lasts.

In completely unrelated news, 2 have been found dead nailed to-- { there are the vague sounds of someone who is clearly looking at something unpleasant } yeah, so... 3 have been found dead in what some believes is the first few of a set of ritual killings that, completely coincidentally, seem to be... er... situated at, um... the, uh, CampSparklingWaters.

{ Deep breath in here. }

ANYWAY. So. Over in Sorcery, the Goblin Market is having a booming year for business, especially the Potion Master who appears to be giving away free samples to all CALL device owners. Apparently, he's trying to see how his magic interacts with people from various worlds so if you're the adventurous type, head on down to the Goblin Market and spend a little time as a zorilla. Mostly because I like saying zorilla. Also because they're adorable. Them and Andean Mountain Cats. Have you ever seen those things? GIANT FLUFFY TAILS. It's insane. Wild creatures but-

{ Throatclear. Yes. PROFESSIONAL. We can be professional. }

Anyway... 'Phi Upsilon Kappa Fraternity House is having a party.' Guys. Guys, this is not news. This is so not even remotely- oh. All right, they're having a costume party. Which is also not news but you know what? I'm gonna go with it. Everyone needs a little fun in their lives and there are few things as fun as a Kappa-Frat party. Just watch your drink and avoid the flamingos. No one needs the flamingos.

Meanwhile, over in Adventure, the Lost City of Amazonia has decided to emerge from the mists for the moment to host their Mid-Summer Festival. Veterans of the festival will know that you'll never find roasted meats quite so delicious, or leatherwear quite so flattering as what's available right now. The main event, however, is still the hand-to-hand and wrestling tournaments, held in the city arena. It is not to be missed, whether you get in the ring or just stay in the stands.

Last, but of course not least, Nicholson Park over in Romance is having their Cinema Under the Stars event so all you movie buffs should definitely head over to watch a few classic swashbucklers and some steamy black and white serials. They do provide blankets with your ticket, but they've been known to run out in the hopes of encouraging romantic blanket sharing. So any and all anti-social folks should make sure to get their tickets as soon as possible. Or, you know, maybe let romance happen. What could go wrong?

Don't answer that.

That's all we've got for today, folks! And so I leave you to the dulcet tones of our next program...
