The Planets had a more interesting story. I can't always write up everything on the Wikipedia page, so I pick whatever gives me more to work with.

Little preview of next week: 1995's when AOL and Prodigy launched, so people who weren't college students or government employees had access. It was all downhill from there…

Let me just blow your mind a little bit more:

I missed the deadline on this — it's been such a busy week I wasn't actually able to watch the last episode yet. But I'll share what I wrote here, for free!

Linnell's so damn cheerful when he sings "Everybody dies frustrated and sad, and that is beautiful."

No talk page? I didn't notice that. I'm not sure, in all my time doing this, I've ever come across a Wikipedia page with no talk…

Can't most of those apply to modern religions?

Pretty sure mythology is just religion that's lost its adherents. People who prayed to Zeus were just as convinced theirs was the One True Faith as anyone in 2015 praying to Jesus or Vishnu or the midichlorians.

I'm adding it to my list!

And every goddess was the goddess of fertility. Goddess of fire, and fertility. War, and fertility. Horses, and fertility. Making sure the crops grew and the babies survived was really fucking important back in the day.

It was a nice, small nod to the earlier film. As opposed to Indiana Jones and the One We All Pretend Never Happened, which just can't stop elbowing you in the ribs. "There's the Ark! Indy didn't see it! But you saw it! And we'll cut to it again just to make sure you see it! And it almost bonked Indy on the head! But…

You're absolutely right. My fault.

The Ark of the Covenant has a heck of a lot of personality, for a thing that spends most of it's screen time sitting inertly in a crate. That John Williams score gives me goosebumps every time the Ark is on screen.

The link to the Four Hallows of Ireland shockingly leaves this out, but Lugh's Spear could just fly around on its own impaling people, and was so battle-hungry that Lugh stored it in a bucket of blood, as that was the only way to keep it sated in between battles.

Wasn't sure if that joke would land. The Diablo game series involves fighting your way through dungeons, but as the fights are all pretty one-sided (if you lose, you just regenerate and keep wearing the monsters down), the game ended up being about all the cool stuff the monsters dropped. It was one of those games…

I feel like some questions are best left unanswered.

It's really amazing. And it's like that all over Ireland. In Sligo, there are these flat-topped mountains, like big green loaves of bread, and on top are these burial mounds, built with stones arranged into a dome, by some method modern science still doesn't understand. There were dozens of them dotting the…

That is a big pitfall of Irish sightseeing. I've been to the Cliffs of Moher twice, and both times it was too foggy to see the actual cliffs.

They had passenger service in Fringe's alternate universe too. Ten out of ten for style, but not terribly practical. Supposedly, the blimp plan was just a flimsy justification to put a tower on top of the building which would make it taller than Chrysler. For whatever reason, the building's financial backers didn't…

He did a great bit with the blimp stalking Nick Nolte. They'd just film Nolte staggering through the Hollywood Hills. He'd look over his shoulder, see the blimp looming, mutter, "Christ…" and stagger a bit faster. For some reason, it was always funny.
