John has Follow-Up on the Ides of March that leads to an examination of Roman numerals, contextual adjectives, and the challenge of adapting software for the peoples of Volapük.
Next up is some guidance on the rope John was trying to push in the previous episode, and Merlin expresses gratitude to the listeners who also didn't know Aja has a person on it. Your hosts learn that you can't make an Omelas without…you know. Breaking something.
Then, John and Merlin talk about the American singer, Taylor Swift.
Apparently still in Follow-Up, there's more talk about DisneySea, and then Merlin gets surprisingly animated in discussing his ardor for some networking software and a recent music video.
Finally, the listener is treated to a discussion of sports in movies.
For this month's members-only bonus show, John has questions about Merlin's AI friends.

Also notice how the pavement changes as well, especially as you travel across the nation and through time from Liberty Square (the Colonial Eastern US) into the Frontierland (western US).
Purkinje effect - WikipediaThe Purkinje effect occurs at the transition between primary use of the photopic (cone-based) and scotopic (rod-based) systems, that is, in the mesopic state: as intensity dims, the rods take over, and before color disappears completely, it shifts towards the rods' top sensitivity.[
