We've got to get this boy a singing contract ASAP

Every time I see this, I wonder just how the hell Riley got that job.

Y'know... I wondered why you stopped after this "essential listening"... But then, having read the entire series... While I can not say it's why... It doesn't surprise me. At a certain point... Probably when he decided to wrap up the series...Hambone changes direction... And even retroactively begins to retcon some things. He tries to make things consistent and maintain a proper continuity... But to an old comic book nerd like me.... Well, I catch such things pretty easily.

I do wonder what the aliens will think of our pets or our zoos. I'm sure they'll be impressed

I was so sure Talkit the Corti was the traitor but it seems not to be the case. Well at least Jen and Saunders live for another day.

Raising a red white blue flag! Go Netherlands

Please make more

This man's blue balls must be ready to explode

The Aussie space pirate with his spaceship made ny dinosaurs

Yeah this feels better, just chaotic violence and stupid enemies.

Yeah dang it ofcourse there was a glorious finale for the little brave Triman. Rest in peace little giant, free in the end finally escaped the horror after tasting a few days of life among her own.

Damn I'm afraid I feel far too attached to the little Triman. I'm glad she's having this time but there is a fear that the spotlight comes with a finale I'm not going to enjoy.

Geez, I suppose I shouldn't have expected only happy endings Triman really is a poor little broken thing and I can only imagine how horrifying the little creature must be to Ima. How impossible it must seem to Ima to reach the heights of desperation Triman's mother faced to reach that conclusion. How affronting Triman's desire for death must be to Ima. I hope little Triman regains her desire to live, much of her life was stolen from her but she seems young, there is still much life that can be had before escape takes her.

These episodes really are a joy to listen to. Thanks for sharing these stories with your voice acting

Love the massive sci-fi ships. As it should be.

Just started to listed to this playlist a day or so ago. This is so good!!! Thank you!!! I honestly do not understand how you have only 10k sub??? There should be at least one or two more zeros there, mate!

Good episode despite the kinkshit

I'm imagining that the Zolderzil looks an aircraft carrier because it's from earth but it is really hard to imagine how a dinosaur ship would look. How big would the doors, rooms and hallway be? How tall and how wide? Surely you would want multiple dinosaurs to be able to pass eachother, so maybe fewer and larger rooms further apart? I do love that mental image

Someone should make a timeline on the Deathworlders wiki cause the dates are kind of confusing 😅

We're doomed sooner or later. Well that has always and will always be true, but it isn't over until you give up. When you give up it is over, if you try and fail it is over but if you try and succeed then you might have a bit longer. Never underestimate the power of one more/last try.

Yay how the human turn the tables on the aliens

It kinda feels like a roleplay of a stellaris game. Love the hive of hunters playing as the devouring swarm.

3:07 - i was NOT prepared for Bonnie Tyler. Not the least. is this the battle-song that Xiu will blast over the ships com-system while slaughtering the Corti, corti-lackeys and hunters?

Riverdance likely could be used as the most "hold my beer" flex warmove against hunters: A front of 20 humans just waltzing towards a hunter-army. The the floor buckling under the combined impact of the synchronised steps, the ship quaking and sounding the alarm as the hulls integrity is endangered, and hunter innards splattering in all directions with enough force to rip of limbs of the unfortunate hunters hit by their brethren guts. Or some metal-head or hiphop-fans blasting such loud music that the hunters just liquefy.

26:16 that had me laughing, thak you!

Kirk is now envious of mental disorders?

We love you and miss you and your fantastic work. I hope you’re doing good. 🙏🙏🙏

Sociopaths don’t try to be good people.

You don’t hate Ava enough.

You don’t hate Ava enough

This is amazing and I love it.

I'm now reminded of a particular instance in "Salvage, a story by user Rantarian" In which the aussie fighting an alien Wolfigator needed a rock. So the alien red panda with him tossed the "Biggest stone he could find." The stone in question being a river rock sized pebble.

At least it is only a fully automatic pipe-bomb launcher. He is stralian - he might have just had some spiders with him and let those loose.

Having to remove wisdom-teeth in general is a sign of bad eating-habits since childhood. they are NOT supposed to be taken out, to come out, or cause trouble. And there are no medical records of flossing having any beneficial health effects - but plenty showing its dangers. Eat NORMAL - not all that heavily processes junk. That means real, hard, bread and not the sugar-buns that many claim to be bread. Row fruits and vegtables, and in general a lot more hard and chewy stuff that trains the jaw bones and muscles. And brush your teeth. That is all that is needed.

She has the physical capabilities but needs the mindset. Video-games nowadays can help you with the tactics but basically none of them can help you with the psychological impact of the real situation - Nearly none of them... the US military (and of course others) have tried and are using videos games even for the psychological training. Still - a flexible sporty young women that trains some sort of martial art (even if it is one of the many that are all show and no practical use) will do a lot better than any armchair-warrior or mal-ninja.

I really liked this, this feels very good

A Deathworlder. An engineer deathworlder. A soldier at that. And them from stralia - the one zone that to the rest of those deathworlders is known as a death-zone. I mean just get him a knife and hope he doesn't eradicate several species will enjoying his holidays. And mind you - that is what a NORMAL human in actual reality on earth can do. Yeah there have been instances were survival-shows had to be cut short cause the contestants hunted too many freaking crocodiles for their nightly parties cause they tasted so good. Not soldiers, not trained professionals - normal everyday guys. And these aliens thought it would be a good idea to abduct a trained soldier from the most hostile parts of that deathworld.

Ava could have just not been a whore too.

Interrupting a hockey-games is one of the worst things they could have done. If at least it was a cowboy-show or a football game (actual football, not american handegg) then at least their annihilation would have been swift.

11:46 “There was no waste, in the pack. Especially not blood.” <voice deepens> “Never did they waste blood.” We were hearing about logistics, recycling… and suddenly, we hear a mix of hunger and lust. Damn. Ive been spending too much time in the nominally “true story” parts of Reddit. Mother-in-law wore white to a wedding, and the Maid of Honor ‘tripped’ and spilled a glass of wine on it. Things that are only relatively important, and only because nothing that really matters is going on. In an HFY sense, maybe this is humanity’s greatest weakness. Any experience on a Deathworld could be Life or Death. And in the absence of weighty issues, we imbue weight onto trivialities. If our lives get too easy, we invent… Jerry Springer. The imagination’s version of autoimmune disease, inventing a threat when there is nothing to fear.

Sarah was an idiot

Thanks

Solid story. Great narrating. Mixed feelings on the religion aspect. Works well as a reflection of who Jenkins is, but think there's a bit too much confirmation of his views from the alien response. True or not, religion is an attempt to explain the world around us. Like scientific models today, they exist as a model that seemed to account for how the universe worked, gaining more credibility as time went on without them being disproven. Calling religion a preference to invent a fiction rather than admit a lack of knowledge is rather large misunderstanding. Though I suppose the alien response is also reflective of how aliens might react to Jenkins (even if, as in other HFY stories, it can be odd that such a vast array of aliens had no experiences similar enough to humans to draw from.

is that the only human who actually died from the hunters assault in the main story? Feels like the other human are kicking hunters ass

Jon the ftl capable human federatin instead

Meat for the algorithm

Adam owns prime real estate on a growing colony that will probably be worth millions eventually. Ava fucked up so bad.

Ava is the worst
