Well I own a parrot so #1 is just a daily occurrence!

This was him yesterday:

Can someone link me the original for 3? It's the cover of my favorite podcast and I had no idea it was a painting

Same! I just found it. This thing is at the bottom left of the right section.

Honestly, it makes sense. This gives me the same jarring, not what I expected sense that knifepoint horror gives me every time I tune in.

What's been happening with Knifepoint lately by the way? I've been listening for literally a decade at this point, but the other day I scrolled back to re-listen to some older episodes and they've got, like, a musical intro (after the network intro) and a different narrator?

[–] Postmortal_Pop@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's still mostly the same guy, but there's a lady narrator that comes on occasionally. My uninformed guess is that they're a couple.

[–] rayquetzalcoatl@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It was a different bloke in the ones I relistened to, for sure. Unless I'm just totally misremembering which I guess is possible but I don't recall there being more than one narrator - I was sure it was only Soren who narrated, then sometimes yeah the lady you mentioned. But no other guys. Might be wrong tho 🤷‍♂️

Currently I'm number 4, but after this joint I'll be number 9.

I think Bosch must have been fun at parties, not gonna lie!

[–] frog@feddit.uk 8 points 4 days ago

I want to be a #7 but my cousin asked me to join them to go out tomorrow so I'm a #5.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 days ago

Are those all Bosch?

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Somewhere between 3 and 9.

Number 1, Harvey Bird on head Pig-Man, Attorney at Law

I’m feeling like #7 right now.
Wish I had thought of reading my book in the bath though.

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I’m somewhere between 9 and 5

Is the butt with music on it fantastical enough?
