The Rules of The Internet - They're just nasty

Ep. 2

Content Warning : This week's episode explores 4chan's Rules of the Internet, which were written in the early 00's. Please be advised that there is language which is homophobic, transphobic, misogynistic, and there is talk of an act of aggressive animal cruelty/abuse. If this episode is not safe or uncomfortable for you to listen to, please take care of yourself. A transcript will be posted soon, if that's a way in which you can safely engage. If not, skip this episode and we can't wait to have you back next week!

There were some small audio snafus this week - if Cas sounds particularly modulated or has an odd reverb on his voice, this is why. Sorry, and thank you for sticking with us!
