Peter MorrisonPANELIST
I roll.
Alex MorrisonHOST
Your, your firing from the Miskatonic University, your friendship with Crawdad Costa Rica Cambodia, it has all led up to this moment-
Donovan BallardPANELIST
[laughs] I'm stuck
Alex MorrisonHOST
... as you go headfirst into this window.
JakeHOST
I do love the little touches that keep it grounded in the Cthulhu mythos.
JakeHOST
They're at Miskatonic University.
DerekHOST
I love that.
DerekHOST
I give a whoop every time Miskatonic's

DerekHOST
I wanted to have it done by the time we did this episode, but you know, life gets in the way and stuff like that.
DerekHOST
But some of the little moments that pop up are Miskatonic references.
DerekHOST
You know, they allude to Crawford being well, well known and regarded at Miskatonic University.
DerekHOST
And he's got the Miskatonic University shirt that he wears.
Matthew MurrayHOST
So th- those are some of the ones that might stick out for people.
Matthew MurrayHOST
Oh, uh, Dr. Henry Armitage, who's the chief librarian of Miskatonic University.
Anna FerriHOST
[laughs] Obviously the most critical character.
Matthew MurrayHOST
Definitely.
Jam EdwardsHOST
I mean, there's definitely also places in the H.P. Lovecraft stories that I would recognize.
Anna FerriHOST
Mm-hmm.
Matthew MurrayHOST
Miskatonic University.
Jam EdwardsHOST
Yeah, Miskatonic.
JamesHOST
Go Ravens.
JamesHOST
And you're wearing your, uh, Miskatonic University shirt.
ChuckHOST
Yeah.
JamesHOST
So go Cephalopods.
LewisHOST
Of course it does.
LewisHOST
Either way, it's the first mention of Arkham and the first mention of Miskatonic, although not in the context of the university.
LewisHOST
I'm not suggesting you read The Picture in the House, to be clear.
LewisHOST
It relies pretty heavily on racist undertones and overtones, and it doesn't really build at all on the mentions of Arkham or the Miskatonic Valley.
LewisHOST
Only recently has the game really settled on the official lore of Arkham proper, and it goes something like this.
LewisHOST
Ancient legend-haunted Arkham, people have lived on the site of modern-day Arkham for centuries, since long before the Puritans made landfall in Massachusetts, with ruins and relics from those time-lost days still to be found for those willing to look.
LewisHOST
That makes Arkham, as the book states, something of an oddity.
LewisHOST
Perhaps it makes sense.
Tom ReillyHOST
Much younger than her.
Tom ReillyHOST
On the other side of the thing, you see Wayland and this younger woman together, and then in the final painting, you see, uh, the younger woman graduating, and it looks like she was graduating from Miskatonic University.
Tom ReillyHOST
Now, there's some other really interesting things in the room.
Tom ReillyHOST
Um, there is a woodcut in a frame on the wall, and the woodcut looks like this.
9 MINS LATER
Horatio AldercottPANELIST
You are quite literally a lifesaver.
Tom ReillyHOST
What was your name, sir?
Horatio AldercottPANELIST
Um, Horatio Aldercot, professor of history, Miskatonic University.
Tom ReillyHOST
Um, all right, Professor, uh, we'll, we'll get some gasoline out to you.
Tom ReillyHOST
The weather was gloomy.
Tom ReillyHOST
The sky was overcast, and there were piles of dirty black snow in the corners of the parking lots around the Miskatonic University.
Tom ReillyHOST
It was Wednesday, April 14th, 1926, the last three day...
Tom ReillyHOST
The, the last, um, the last few days of spring break.
KiriothHOST
The final organization is the most obvious.
KiriothHOST
For well over 100 years, Miskatonic University in Arkham, Massachusetts, has been allowed almost full autonomy when it comes to the research of the occult and Mythos, and have a very well organized presence both on the surface and in the net.
KiriothHOST
The Miskatonic Society is a secret society of academics dedicated to the unearthing of the Mythos and have a global presence connected through a secret node on the net called Whately Net.
DKDiamantesHOST
Oh, boy.
LewisHOST
Daisy loses both of her clues to a false lead, and then with no clues left to spend, gets walloped over the head by a hunting shadow.
LewisHOST
And then if that wasn't enough, the first of eight doom strikes, and a Wizard of the Order spawns at the Miskatonic University.
LewisHOST
What a terrible chain of events.
LewisHOST
Whew.
