219 - The Traveling Tarot Reader

[@CelestialBunnyPaws]

Cecil butchering Michigan as himself but saying it perfectly on behalf of Dr. Lubelle made me do a double take. 😂

[@lilaboxx]

Don't you dare try to explain my favourite radio host... He's night vale's biggest mystery, he's OUR mystery

[@canteventhough]

It's okay, since nothing in Nightvale is constant, she'll never be able to. We're safe.

[@AngieDollz]

Wait what did they explain about him again?

[@canteventhough]

@@AngieDollz his past.

[@TomMcMorrow]

I can't tell you how excited I am you're going back to the "season big boss" model of earlier times. That was always my favorite!

[@CelestialBunnyPaws]

Imagine if Dr. Lubelle explained Kevin, and that he can't have no eyes and a permanent smile, and it just... fixes him. Returned to his normal state, he fights for his town, and Desert Bluffs and Night Vale take her down _together._ Before Strex, if y'all remember Triptych, Kevin was as passionate about protecting his town as Cecil. 🤭

[@stevenprice1810]

"Not playing with a full deck" made me smile

[@dracorex426]

Yeah I definitely want the University of What It Is to meet with Kevin.

[@MacTechG4]

True, Kevin definitely needs to be …explained…

[@sophiehelena6737]

forgot its the other radio hosts name and thought u meant callmekevin,,,, close enough actually

[@kerink]

this got me so hype i feel like i could run a marathon, you guys should see how this episode is making tumblr react holy fuck

[@piscesbambina]

And now I need a Night Vale tarot deck...yes, that is now what I need.

Night Vale makes me want to stare at a wall and rethink everything, this episode especially.

[@rebeccalambert3240]

Well, here it is. The first episode released since I caught up. I had to wait a few days to have the time to listen to it, but. . . man, this is crazy. And not just being here, after this long journey, but because this episode was WILD lol. I love Welcome to Night Vale

[@flareinc7413]

I really thought that Kevin,or hEgemony or Kasper Rhodes was a terrifying villain. But this Lubelle.... She really takes the cake. Steals the cake from everyone else. Just because.

[@MySerpentine]

The Five of Rakes is Kevin, yes? I would love to see his reaction to someone trying to explain him away . . . and it would very much be deserved at this point.

[@HexManiacQuinn]

The segment of questions from Night Vale "listeners" feels like Twitter cancelling Cecil after only looking at the KZbin titles and thumbnails 😣 ... probably leading into the doppleganger plot though? Like maybe they weren't listening to the same radio station?

[@StrawmnMcPerson]

Doesn't it suck when people try using words they don't understand and wind up spewing propaganda reframes instead?

[@MacTechG4]

One important question… how does Steve Carlsberg feel about the UoWIS, and Dr. Lubell… Steve has a thing for ‘forbidden’ knowledge, and loves explaining things, almost as much as the ‘Doctor’…

[@PheonixStarsx]

My headcanon is that cecil is a omnipotent being born in a dimension we can’t comprehend and nightvale is his cage , kind of like a serial experiments lain type of thing

[@idomeyoudoyou9102]

nononononononononononono, no nobody explains cecil, carlos or dana away! Yuck! I am terrified of whats going to happen. I get strex corp vibes from dr lubell. I do not like it Anyway, amazingly told episode, cant wait for the next one! Oh and for all you guys: Unlicensed is really cool, I love it. Check it out definitely, also I am in love lately with alice isn`t dead. I do not know why I havent listened to it sooner

[@emmystiddi9738]

Imagine if Lubell attempted to explain Kevin, though.

[@idomeyoudoyou9102]

@@emmystiddi9738 hahahaha that would be hilarious. Kevin in his passive agressivness would enjoy This conversation very much

[@SamJohnPower]

I've been a fan for over 8 years now and never caught on to this fact until my mum pointed it out while we were going through some older episodes together, a fact that's seemed to have been overlooked by the writers every time they bring up Dana again: *Dana is the original, not her double.* We know this because back in season 2, the old oak doors would only close when everyone was in their proper places back where they came from, and that includes rightfully placing the original Dana back in Night Vale. If she were her double, the old oak doors would have shut her out of Night Vale at the end of season 2 like with Carlos. You're the real Dana, and this is the proof! You can stop questioning your existence now! (Who knows, maybe Dr. Lubelle seeking Dana means she's going to explain this old oak doors evidence to her - then her explanatory tendencies could bring some citizens some peace of mind for once)

[@0therun1t21]

Is one of the cards someone stepping on a rake or parking under a tree full of protected and endangered birds that are known to ruin your paint job in half an hour flat? If so, I want that deck.

[@canteventhough]

Omg! It's my episode!

[@FeatherVoid]

oh this is EERIE!!! :D feels like we're starting to poke at the fourth wall and not in a funny way

[@dracorex426]

I'm terrified. They should send the Doctor to Desert Bluffs, Too.

[@birdmanbytheclaw]

Missed you Nightvale

[@janeeggleston9542]

Excellent episode!

[@Bookah88]

Don't explain Cecil! Or Carlos! They're too important!

I have a bad feeling the this storyline is leading up to a series finale.

[@tripplejay9810]

The Massachusetts Bay Colony was named after the indigenous population, the Massachusett, whose name likely derived from a Wôpanâak word muswachasut, segmented as mus(ây) "big" + wach "mountain" + -s "diminutive" + -ut "locative".[68] It has been translated as "near the great hill",[69] "by the blue hills", "at the little big hill", or "at the range of hills."

In my neighborhood the carts have some sort of Mexican food served out of plastic bags and the pusher honks a really annoying horn. I've never tried any and I don't think I will. They used to sell flavorless dumpster dived oranges,

[@MacTechG4]

So they have a pack of wild dogs around the food cart?

[@0therun1t21]

@@MacTechG4 Not yet but a pack of wild chihuahuas would be awesome!

[@SirSadness]

I still have my theory that Cecil is a reality bender who created Night Vale as a way to escape his past life of trauma. He just doesn't know it yet.

[@iliketoeatbatteries8122]

I don’t know what it is but I do not like Dr. Janet Lubelle. I hate her. She cannot explain everything. She is scary

[@bubblesbutterfly1235]

Woo Hoo hey y’all ☃️🤗😈💀💀😘❤️ i’m sure my emojis said it all! I love to do arts and crafts while listening to your wonderful podcast… I’m sorry radio station that is my bad I apologize to everyone in the city … it’s just these darn bed rats… 🤣

Ya know sometimes the best explanation is no explanation but let's get real people, explanations are soooo overrated.
