60. Popped His Horn Bubble

Us Weirdos Have to Stick Together!

We're in for a grim and gruesome evening on the Train, folks. Jesse's number is finally down to zero, so it's time to get out of here...but what are they gonna do about MT? Plus, we get to know the protagonists of book three (and MT ABSOLUTELY murders a child). On top of all that, MT learns to say "fry, piggies!" because it's time to kill some cops! Join Vivian and Nobody to talk about grim realization, Train Gravity, and The horror of having to live with what you've done to keep yourself alive!

Content Warning: These episodes contain heavy use of allegorical racism. The Apex do not see residents of the train as people, and so treat them as less than human. This could be quite triggering, and takes up the bulk of the first episode of our discussion today, culminating at 1 hour 24 minutes. Second, MT kills a man in this episode. It is in self-defense, but it's quite graphic, and we discuss it at length starting at about 1 hour 44 minutes, and lasting around ten minutes.

On this episode we discuss

B2E7 The Mall Car

and

B2E8 The Wasteland
