Episode 212 Let’s Build a Fusellbüt 0

Feb 5, 2018

Today's Topic A New Fantasy Monster the Fusellbüt

Michael and I always love making things up. So I started calling my newborn son a Fusellbüt. My wife looked at me and asked. "What is a Fusellbüt?" Pausing studying the confusion on my face until she noticed that some of the confusion was about her question and not all about a new dad surviving his new baby she continued, "Fusellbüt, it sounds like something from your world."

And at that moment this episode was born. Join Michael and I as we create a new fantasy monster for Gardul, the Fusellbüt.
