Friedrich and Valerian struggle to relate to and not chew on, respectively, their new friend. Bingo tells his tale. And we arrive at a port in a sea with no water at all.

Friedrich and Valerian face the world... ALONE. TOGETHER. They meet with a clone, a cartographer, and... a new friend?

In the aftermath of the Oak Hollow Job, there is an arrest, a song, and a sudden farewell.

Everything comes to a fever pitch as the gang gives it their all to steal... a postcard and some batteries.

Until this idea, where we dissect and decipher all five parts of the band's “Larks' Tongues in Aspic” song cycle, spanning several decades and three different lineups.

Great music is worth more than we ever pay for it.

The time has come for our band of scoundrels to finally nab their third memento...but at what cost?

Stolen Derisetum firmly in-hand, our crew marches on toward their next heist— using The Piper Lord's fledgling trust against them. Also Pepper does some really weird stuff for fun, just off-screen the whole time.

In the aftermath of their mission against (?) the Brightwater Collective for (?) the Piper Lords, our scoundrels attempt to repair their reputation, heal their wounds, and get into some weird vices.

Our crew gains a new member, sort of, and then sets out to complete their heist of the Starsong Lounge.

After being warned in no uncertain terms, "DO NOT ROB THE PIPER LORDS," and "DO NOT JOIN THE PIPER LORDS," the gang figures out how to join and rob the Piper Lords.

2023 marks the 40th anniversary of Voivod, a band that are at the very heart of everything we do at Radical Research and everything we listen to as incorrigible music obsessives.

Safe on the train at last, Friedrich experiments, Pepper makes a new friend, Valerian confronts his most powerful enemy— and everyone relieves some stress, one way or another.

It's time to crown the Sun Queen, at last. I'm sure everything will go according to plan.

Pepper gets advice from Valerian and decides to attack a woman. Friedrich gets advice from Valerian about attacking a woman and it nearly gives him a medical episode. Still, tactics and poetry are no match for our intrepid crew...... unless?

In this very special episode, Valerian uses drugs in a god-honoring way. Friedrich uses also drugs, but in...a different way. Pepper performs the acts of music, charioteering, and listening to a man talk. And also there is a heist going on.

The unlikeliest of companions continue on their quest for mementos and survival. Here, there are bees, miracles, big titty anime drawings, fatherhood, villas, rivalry, classism, and above all—the battle for the Sun Queen's Diadem.

Friedrich strikes out on his own into the world of Aphitraea while Pepper and Valerian try desperately to convince each other to get dressed. Information is gathered, plots are thickened, and plans are hatched.

Classic train events occur: Pepper meets an evil busker, Valerian gets shaken down for his condo deed, and Friedrich can do it all by himself!

The tents are raised. The lights are lit. The performers have donned their costumes and makeup and masks. No need to look beyond the trainyard to see what else might be going on in town. Welcome, one and all, to Nevernowhere!
