Background fire ambience by inchadney from freesound.org
Clicking for appreciation: In poetry circles - as well as other spoken-word contexts, including some academic presentations - it's convention to click or snap one's fingers rather than clapping hands. It's a quieter way to show appreciation, and it doesn't overwhelm the performer's delivery demanding a pause or other break in the flow.
"Why don't you share?" and "I'm sorry, Laura - I don't understand the question" - lines from TV series 'Humans': https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4122068/
Rubber bushings - They're a component in cars, and Kate had been playing Car Mechanic Simulator 2021 pretty intensively for a few days. I'd link it but I (hi, Kate writing the notes today) can't see any usefully descriptive site that isn't just a straight-up purchase page, and we're not here to sell stuff to you.
Esperanto - a constructed language originally formulated in 1887, intended for use as a global auxiliary language: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esperanto
"Whaaaaaa...?" - Shocko the Elf, from animated TV series Disenchantment: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5363918/
Arnold Rimmer learning Esperanto - from 'Red Dwarf':
"Open Charlie tunnel" - Eddie Izzard, a two-part bit on stand-up show 'Unrepeatable'; establishing that purring is actually the sound of cats drilling (https://youtu.be/lnBtd-dOnUQ ) and later calling back with a reference to finding their drilling equipment (https://youtu.be/2zqlykUPaNc ).
"Have a gorilla" / "Have one of my monkeys, they're milder" / "I only smoke baboons" / "Baboon Show!" - several of a vast number of running gags in 1950s BBC radio comedy 'The Goon Show' - many of which gags the good burghers of Wikipedia have assembled here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Goon_Show_running_jokes
"I wrote it down on a piece of paper" - an epic Goon Show sketch featuring regular characters Eccles and Bluebottle discussing timekeeping: https://youtu.be/ctM_Rvgjfpo (remember it was a radio show - the visuals were added by the person uploading it to YouTube)
Rune Poems: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rune_poem
The Oncoming Storm - a Dalek name for the Doctor, according to the Doctor (Doctor Who): https://youtu.be/6ThpkjDgdvY
"Do your worst." (The Count of Monte Cristo): https://youtu.be/pf3xp0z4Cf8
"Death smiles at us all - all a man can do is smile back" - Maximus, quoting Marcus Aurelius (Gladiator): https://youtu.be/_uSZl03zSXE
The original Ghostbusters was indeed released in 1984: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087332/
"And slowly, and surely, they drew their plans against us" - Richard Burton in 'The Eve of the War', from Jeff Wayne's 'War of the Worlds': https://youtu.be/Poii8JAbtng
Steven Spielberg's 'War of the Worlds' (2005): https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0407304/
'I Am Legend' listing on doesthedogdie.com: https://www.doesthedogdie.com/media/24939
Schrodinger's Cat (quantum physics *thought experiment* - nobody's actually done it, Dawn, it's fine): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schr%C3%B6dinger%27s_cat
'Sliding Doors' (1998): https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120148/

Also, if you’re wondering about the title, it’s another Goon Show reference, this time to a brief exchange whereby one character is offered a drink and asks for “a glass of fish and chips”. See? A glass? Haglaz? Ha-glaz? GEDDIT you geddit of course you do. Anyway thanks for reading the notes, you’ve been a fantastic readership and it’s been a pleasure throwing links at you. See you next time.
