S1·E214 Think About the Killdren

Episode recap

The episode opens with the regular hosts of the NSFW Show welcoming the audience and introducing the guest for the day, Len Peralta. Peralta’s appearance is framed around the promotion of his new “Geek A Week” series, a project that he describes as a weekly exploration of niche interests. The hosts ask him to outline the concept, and Peralta explains that each installment will spotlight a different geek‑culture topic, with recurring segments that feature two regular contributors identified only as “Bri Bri” and “Jurbs.” The conversation stays focused on the format of the series, the intended audience, and the ways in which the show plans to integrate the perspectives of Bri Bri and Jurbs into each episode.

Following the promotional discussion, the hosts shift to a segment that addresses a controversial proposal concerning author Pat Rothfuss. The episode notes that the team presents an “awesome(?) new idea for a series of fantasy books” that is intended to affect Rothfuss’s reputation. The hosts and Peralta outline the premise of the proposed idea, emphasizing its novelty and the reaction it is expected to provoke. No further specifics about the content of the idea or the nature of the reputational impact are provided, but the segment is presented as a deliberate attempt to generate discussion and perhaps challenge existing perceptions of Rothfuss’s work.

The latter portion of the program is dedicated to a charitable component. The hosts announce that the episode includes a charity element, though the details of the cause, the method of fundraising, or the amount raised are not disclosed in the available synopsis. The segment is framed as an extension of the show’s broader ethos of combining humor, irreverence, and community engagement.

Throughout the episode, the hosts maintain the series’ characteristic blend of comedy and talk, interspersing light‑hearted banter with the more serious promotional and charitable topics. The episode concludes with a brief recap of the key points: Peralta’s “Geek A Week” series with its featured contributors, the provocative fantasy‑book idea aimed at Pat Rothfuss, and the ongoing commitment to charitable efforts. The hosts sign off, leaving the audience with a clear sense of the episode’s three primary focuses.
