This Channel's First Video - The Magnus Protocol Analysis and Theories

[@Uinuvien]

Thoughts: -You are SO one of the people Jonny keeps his eyes on 👀 -I suspect you will need bigger boards before the season ends -My theory is that Agnes is one of OIAR's externals, Gertrude asked OIAR's help to bring the Institute down and they sent Agnes :D

[@booyahback]

Follow-up: that’s amazing. -My gut is that Martin told us in case 1 what’s going down. “Some of him.” The “voice I have loved for years.” The unholy flesh(?) golem. -We know that alchemy will feature. Even more than creating gold, alchemy was interested in creating artificial life. -Particularly given the history that Agnes both did and didn’t meet Gertrude, I find that angle intriguing. Given the themes of AI that have appeared, I’m deeply interested in how the ethics of a ghost in the machine twist when the ghost is three ghosts, two of whom are parts of people I love and the third is a monster who hurt them.

I really love how well you explain things, I have trouble retaining details cuz i’m usually just vibing when i listen, so it’s appreciated lol. idk if you’re looking for video ideas but having you summarize TMA would be really fun to watch hehe

[@Artyphex]

I have considered it… 🤔

[@calvinwood7048]

Ok one important note I see people missing. In Tale Of A Field Hospital the statement giver talks about being a fan of the Magnus Institute, he talks about not being able to actually get into the place to check it out himself, but "when all those statements leaked back in '99" he read them all. I don't think it's simply coincidence that this happened in tma in the same year the institute was destroyed in tmp

[@KIDD-VIDEO]

I like that you mentioned the older TMA Q&A's! I think the theory of Agnes Montague making an appearance in TMAGP is pretty strong, especially considering some of the other things mentioned in past TMA Q&A's (Jonny/Alex being interested in doing an ARG, wanting to use Gerry in more episodes, wanting to play more with statement formats, etc. and etc.) have started to come true in TMAGP :)

[@AshenOpal]

Oooh Gertrude getting Agnes to help destroy the institute is interesting. I was honestly starting to think Gertrude was actually part of whatever Starkwall was and maybe that's why she became so protective of Gerry. Its all verrrrry interesting for sure 👀👀

[@zypalitra8080]

Great video! I personally believe that - A) The Fear Entities are still present in TMP, but may have merged slightly in the crossover. B) The O.I.A.R. utilizes Bonzo & Starkwall in different ways to eliminate manifestations of the Fear Entities - Bonzo is released to as a targeted hitman to kill the TMP equivalent of Avatars, and Starkwall is used to contain events similar to MAG 37: Taken Ill. If Bonzo went a bit OTT Starkwall could come in and cover it up. C) The Magnus Institute was an arm of the O.I.A.R. that went rogue (or fell under the influence of a Fear Entity / Entities) C) "Gwendolyn = a Bouchard = evil" is a red herring and deliberate misdirect from Johnny Sims. Gwen might be evil but I highly doubt she's THE main antagonist. If we'd been introduced to her just as Gwen/Gwendolyn and later down the line she'd been revealed to be Gwendolyn Bouchard then it'd be a bit more of a certainty but since it's been out in the open I doubt she'll be the main villain. D) Less seriously (and more humorously) Agnes is certainly in this universe and is Gerry's elder sister / Gertrude's granddaughter. E) Gertrude worked for either the Magnus Archives of the O.I.A.R. and burnt down the Institute to save Agnes from [INSERT ENTITY/IES HERE] F) Celia can travel between the TMA/TMP realities somehow (through Hilltop Road?) and does indeed recognise Jon/Martin's voices. G) The San Pedro Massacre that Starkwall supposedly perpetrated was to stop a manifestation of a Fear Entity. H) Sam or Alice are going to be the main villains. Either way one of them isn't going to reach the halfway point or finale of the series.

"It could be nothing, most people breathe more than once per day" i just pissed myself

[@Ace-fx7kf]

It should be noted that the Magnus Institute of the Magnus Protocol is the Magnus Institute, Manchester, not the Magnus Institute, London

[@isabeldesilva7631]

Thank you so much for making this! You explain things really well!

[@GwenpoolRocks]

I love this! Its brilliant to see everything we know / think we know in one place (or on two boards) I did wonder about Gertrude's firey aspirations when i first listened to that episode but now youve cemented it in my brain. Looking forward to the blooper video as well as possible future installments!

[@siennasobott9805]

Have been looking forward to this video, the fuel for my own theories is well lit now. Looking forward to seeing a mess of a board by the end of this season!

[@booyahback]

I haven’t even watched the video yet and I’m so excited already. I don’t have TikTok, but my Magnus peeps keep linking your stuff and it’s incredible. (I *cannot* stop watching how John talks about Martin across the seasons.) I’m so ecstatic you’re here!!

[@eggowaff3379]

AHH I love your theories sm its great to get others perspective on what they thinks going on and then have those pieces put together and explained

[@Gahgooby]

i enjoy this deeply

[@leaare]

Amazing vid! also in tma there also was a fire in the institute in 99, when some statements got leaked! so maybe the setting emma on fire DID happen in the institute in both universes, but jonah somehow stopped it in tma but not in tmagp?

[@carterdahl9654]

I don't know anything about any of this or why this was recommended to me, and I am so thoroughly confused, and I have more questions than answers

[@Artyphex]

I am sorry but thank you for the view. Also know that most of us listening to this podcast feel the same way.

[@azcdtixs]

This is peak comtent and yes i ran here as quick as i can for new content

[@AquilesAwK1]

Like, subscribed and waiting for more

[@Leechingsprout]

This reminds me that I need to add to my own cork board, this video is fueling the fire that is my growing obsession with this podcast

[@BeautifulEarthJa]

your reading is great

[@therealdistortion]

ANGES CAN STILL WIN

[@PinkelotjeArt]

I enjoy the energy

[@Cangeltibon]

If Gertrude is alive and there’s different manifestations of fears…that could very well mean that the whole OG cast is alive Tim and Jon’s lives are probably radically different since the same fears of the Spider and Stranger didn’t effect their lives.

[@mechanical_hands]

thank you for feeding my brainrot. please make more content like this prlaseplease i'm foaming at the mouth i need more tmagp theories pleas

[@charlieblank3393]

I havent seen the video yet but i have so many little theories tehehehe. I think red canary got turned into this universe's jonah, because like, their eyes got pulled out right? And jonah transmits his consciousness thru his eyes, and that would explain how whatever creature pulled out their eyes was able to access their phone, as he retains some of the memories of his host body, like reinar and the distortion.

[@TabbyeLynne]

Norris stamens are also very Lonely coded And is it just me or Alice is very Spiral coded?? She reminds me of Helen Also can we talk about how there's official playlists for all the Protocol characters and Gwen's includes "we don't talk about Bruno" from Encanto???? (The implication here being that Elias is her uncle)
