Speaker 10 Ever wonder why so many people regain weight after stopping a GLP-1? Up to 40% of the weight weight lost can come from lean muscle.

Speaker 10 This weakens the body, slows metabolism, and makes it easier to put the pounds back on, creating a cycle of dependency.

Speaker 10 Prolon's five-day fasting mimicking diet offers a drug-free way to maintain results and support long-term metabolic health.

Speaker 10 In just five days, it activates fasting pathways to burn fat, protect muscle, and rejuvenate cells, all while letting you enjoy real food.

Speaker 1 If you could stop somebody from breaking into your home before they got inside, why wouldn't you?

Speaker 1 Most old-school security systems go off after somebody's already entered your place, and that's too late. Simply Safe is different.

Speaker 1 It's proactive, with a double layer of defense that stops crime before it starts. First, AI-powered cameras spot potential threats threats outside.

Speaker 1 Then, live agents step in, talking to the person through the camera, letting them know they're on video and that police will be dispatched if they don't leave.

Speaker 1 They can even trigger a loud siren or a spotlight. That's how you help stop a crime before it starts.
Personally, I found the system itself really easy to set up.

Speaker 1 I really like the base unit's modern sleek design, and it doesn't look out of place in my home. I trust SimpliSafe to protect what matters.
My home, my family, and my recording equipment.

Speaker 1 That brings me real peace of mind. Even with that service, I like the fact that I can check the cameras myself anytime from anywhere.

Speaker 1 Plus, there are no contracts, and SimplySafe was just named the best home security system of 2025 by US News and World Report. It's also the best time to buy.

Speaker 1 SimplySafe's last chance Black Friday sale means 50% off any new system if you go to simplysafe.com/slash Magnus. That's simplysafe.com/slash Magnus.
There's no safe like SimplySafe.

Speaker 12 Episode 23:

Speaker 12 A New Year.

Speaker 12 Damn it

Speaker 14 Problems?

Speaker 15 Just a broken pencil.

Speaker 16 I see.

Speaker 16 And what exactly is this you're working on, anyway?

Speaker 15 Just some response department paperwork.

Speaker 16 You are aware that the response department hasn't existed for some years now. Well, yes, but I'm afraid it looks like our colleagues are entertaining themselves at your expense.

Speaker 14 Sorry?

Speaker 16 I've seen this with other new hires. Some ill-conceived initiation, right?

Speaker 16 Alice is doing, I suspect.

Speaker 14 Okay.

Speaker 15 Uh, thanks for the heads up.

Speaker 16 What I am trying to say, Sam, is that this paperwork is unnecessary.

Speaker 14 Meaningless.

Speaker 15 I understand.

Speaker 15 But I think I might see how far down the rabbit hole goes. If it is Alice.

Speaker 16 I'm sure it is.

Speaker 15 I want to see how long she can keep it up for.

Speaker 16 So long as it doesn't interfere with your work.

Speaker 15 Oh, I'm doing it strictly off the clock.

Speaker 15 It's actually sort of comforting in a way, you know?

Speaker 16 I can assure you, I don't.

Speaker 15 There's just something very Zen about filling in pointless forms now and then.

Speaker 16 I see.

Speaker 14 Well,

Speaker 16 as engrossing as this must be for you, I believe your shift has started.

Speaker 14 Sam? Hmm? Oh, uh, yeah, sorry.

Speaker 14 Post number 1. Finding My Peace.
2006-18, 1931.

Speaker 14 Hey all, A here. First off, thank you so much for all the help over these past few months.
I can't express how insightful, patient, and open-minded this community has been.

Speaker 14 I never thought I'd find others willing to help me create a better me like this. So, sincerely, thank you.

Speaker 14 Anyway, I'm going to be documenting my journey here and wanted to start by asking how you all went about finding your peace. I've been thinking it over for a while now.

Speaker 14 I even caught myself saying it to myself in the bathroom mirror at work. Someone overheard me and thought I was talking about finding peace, like...
inner peace, and asked if I was meditating.

Speaker 14 Kind of ironic, really, but I don't think they'd get the joke.

Speaker 14 Anyway, I'd love to know how others found their piece, or I guess my question is more: does it matter? Should it be important? Should it be meaningful? Should it be random? Am I overthinking it?

Speaker 14 Looking for thoughts and advice. I'm going to take this all away, so we'll take all the help I can get.

Speaker 14 Post number 2. Found it.

Speaker 17 A. L.

Speaker 14 Newman, 86, 13, 13,0718, 1852.

Speaker 14 I think I found it. My piece.
Maybe I knew where it was all along. I'm a bit worried though, because to get it, I have to be a bit sneaky.
Nothing too bad, but I'm nervous.

Speaker 14 There's this restaurant I eat at all the time, or rather I used to eat at all the time, and I guess it's significant to me. It was where I said yes after Antony proposed.

Speaker 14 Those who have read some of my previous posts know how that turned out. But it's also where I first realized that I had to do this.

Speaker 14 They have this massive aquarium and I remember just suddenly realizing how serene everything was inside.

Speaker 14 The water was crystal blue and at the bottom there it was.

Speaker 14 Vibrant. Electric almost and so very much alive.

Speaker 14 God knows how they got it all through customs.

Speaker 14 I remember the first night coming home after that. Antony was snoring beside me and I couldn't stop thinking about that aquarium.
I didn't really know what I was searching for.

Speaker 14 I didn't know how to articulate it. It's a feeling I'm sure many of us here know very well.
And so, as I tried to unfold my thoughts, I stumbled upon...

Speaker 14 Well, you guys. Smiley face.

Speaker 14 So, yeah, that's going to be my piece. I've already spoken to a waiter who's agreed to let me in the back tomorrow night after closing, while they're cleaning up the kitchen.

Speaker 14 I have my container, and I've read all the steps in the how-to forum. I just wanted you all to be be here with me to experience it, so wish me luck.

Speaker 14 Newman, 86, 1407, 18, 20, 48.

Speaker 14 I'm parked in across the street, waiting for the last customers thinking about what this place meant to me back then.

Speaker 14 What would have happened if things had been different?

Speaker 14 Not that I'd have it any other way. His voice was so loud for so long it drowned me out of my own life.

Speaker 14 I wonder if any of you have felt it, the way other people try to convince us that we can better ourselves by being more like what they want.

Speaker 14 But we can become someone new, someone better, someone the pain can't touch. Antony would never understand the difference.
He couldn't.

Speaker 14 I wonder how many people in that restaurant right now are still stuck like I was.

Speaker 14 I'm just killing time, so happy to chat it through if anyone wants. At least until the waiter arrives.

Speaker 14 I can't believe it. My heart is still racing.
I've never done anything like this before. Never stolen, never cheated.
I feel alive for the first time in my life.

Speaker 14 I'm staring at my piece right now. It's on my desk.
I want to keep it warm. I'm going to sleep holding it tonight, like you all suggested, so it's properly bonded with me before tomorrow.

Speaker 14 It is safe, right?

Speaker 14 Of course it is, I'm overthinking it. We'll be back tomorrow, right before the full moon.

Speaker 17 A. L.

Speaker 14 Newman, 86, 16, 07, 18, 19, 22.

Speaker 14 Took today off work, sleeping beside the coral, my coral, my peace. I slept better than any night next to Anthony, better than any night ever.
The best sleep of my life.

Speaker 14 I'm so ready to be whole.

Speaker 14 I even had a dream last night. I was back at the restaurant looking at the aquarium while Anthony prattled on.

Speaker 14 I was staring aimlessly at the lights, the colourful stones, the green of the moss on the stones that hugged the coral, when all of a sudden I was alone.

Speaker 14 And

Speaker 14 I was afraid. I span my head around, looking for Anthony, for the waiter, for anyone.

Speaker 14 Then I saw her. On the other side of the aquarium.
We locked eyes for just a moment.

Speaker 14 Like I said, I want to share every part of this for anyone who wants to follow in my steps. I know some of you like the dream interpretation part of it, and I wanted to share.
But I'm ready.

Speaker 14 I have my rubber gloves. I've I've sanitized the scalpel as LaserCat23 suggested.
I have a clean working surface, bags, bandages, and my sewing kit for after. And

Speaker 14 I am nervous.

Speaker 14 I know what I need to do, and I know it will all be worth it.

Speaker 14 We'll update right after.

Speaker 14 Here we go.

Speaker 14 I'm a bit out of it, but I promised I would update. Feeling a bit woozy, but it's done.
My thigh bled a lot more than I expected. You were right, Burnt Umber J.

Speaker 14 I have tomorrow off, but I have to go back to work while she starts to grow. I can't wait.
I can see her under my rippled skin. waiting to grow.

Speaker 14 She's perfect. She's everything I wish wish I could have been.

Speaker 17 A.L.

Speaker 14 Newman 86-2607-18-1534.

Speaker 14 I've been at work for a week now and it's so different.

Speaker 14 It was difficult to go back to normal, knowing she was inside me, but here I am. Actually sat at my desk with her pressing against my thigh skin.

Speaker 14 I keep catching myself running my fingers under my skirt just to feel her pressing up beneath my skin. Living, breathing polyps gently moving through my leg.

Speaker 14 A life that I hold within my body and nurture.

Speaker 14 Antony would never have understood. It's not the same as some squealing baby.
I'm so glad he's gone, and like you've all said, she and I, we're becoming one and then two.

Speaker 14 dash update one a l Newman 86 1808 18 2203

Speaker 14 hey all I know it's been a few weeks since I updated I'm in the early parts of stage 2 and I'm here to confirm it is terrifying it started with my feet I noticed in the shower one day that I couldn't feel the hot water on them It was so strange at first, but I knew what was happening thanks to your advice.

Speaker 14 It's up to my waist now. No feeling whatsoever.
I'm on bereavement leave from work for the next bit. Then I have some vacation days saved up.

Speaker 14 I have the humidifiers set high, the curtains are taped shut, and everything I need is within reach. I know any day now my second stage will properly begin.
I'm terrified. I'm exhilarated.

Speaker 14 It's really happening. Wish me luck.

Speaker 14 Newman 86-27-08-18-10-13.

Speaker 14 It started. Last night I heard it while laying in bed.
It's exactly as described. I couldn't feel a thing.
Nothing. But then the skin broke with such a distinct sound.

Speaker 14 Like cutting a half-inflated football. Then I saw the red blossom out through the white sheets.
She's so beautiful, bright pink and radiant.

Speaker 14 The coral polyps blooming and scattering from the broken flesh over my feet and legs. With such an incredible smell.

Speaker 14 Like seawater, sand and copper.

Speaker 14 It's slow, though, much slower than I would have thought.

Speaker 14 Oh, and I managed to rent a paralysis computer. Great suggestion again, Burnt Umber J.
So I should be able to keep everyone updated as planned. Even where my arms start to go.

Speaker 14 I cannot express how great it is to finally see her. To finally meet her out in the world at last.

Speaker 14 I had the dream again.

Speaker 14 I was in the restaurant. I was alone.
And I met her eyes. She was me.
She was with me that first night. She was always with me.

Speaker 14 But now she's arrived. She's here.

Speaker 14 I'm awake.

Speaker 14 Last night I watched my stomach unzip.

Speaker 14 The skin stretched, then tore cleanly. There was only the blood.
It was beautiful, but it took forever.

Speaker 14 I keep thinking of this life I'm leaving behind. I'd love her to keep my name, but I don't know if she will.

Speaker 14 I know I shouldn't be, but I'm scared.

Speaker 14 Elasis Newman is leaving this world, and whatever comes next, though she may look like me in some ways, though she may carry a part of me with her, she'll be better. Free of all my mistakes.

Speaker 14 Perhaps people will like her more than me.

Speaker 14 I already like her more than me.

Speaker 14 I want to see her walk off happy and strong.

Speaker 14 I hope she doesn't feel this now.

Speaker 14 Just be the good parts of me.

She is strong. She is graceful.
She is bright in mind and color, and I love her more than I thought I could love anything.

Speaker 19 Another evil toy.

Speaker 8 It's like six this week. I'd give you my weirdo ones if I could.

Speaker 4 Oh, thanks.

Speaker 8 Speaking of, did you have any luck? Hmm? Those names I gave you. You find anything?

Speaker 20 Nothing useful.

Speaker 8 Jonathan Sims is pretty generic as names go. And I didn't have much luck with Martin Blackwood either.
Hmm.

Speaker 19 There were two that were close to the right age.

Speaker 4 But?

Speaker 8 But they died. Separately, nearly twenty years ago.
Cycling accident and some kind of heart thing. No connection to the Magnus Institute.
As far as I can tell, they never even met.

Speaker 8 Where'd you say you found them? Couple of old documents. I must have got the wrong in the stick.
I've had a bit of luck elsewhere though.

Speaker 4 Oh yeah?

Speaker 8 I think I found the right Vasira Hussain and I have a lead on Helen. Richardson?

Speaker 1 That's the one. Fantastic.

Speaker 19 Why can we go talk to them?

Speaker 8 Okay, hold your horses.

Speaker 8 Don't. Shh.

Speaker 8 Can't join?

Speaker 4 I'm fine.

Speaker 19 Glad to hear it.

Speaker 8 Gwen, it's okay if you need a bit of help now you're back on cases. I said I'm fine.

Speaker 8 Don't do.

Speaker 8 Alright then.

Speaker 8 Shall we? God, yes.

Speaker 8 So I hear you're all back to your normal, pleasant.

Speaker 8 Oh.

Speaker 8 ah

Speaker 8 I'm fine I dropped my mug I can see that

Speaker 5 I had a favourite mug

Speaker 8 it said love you bitch and had a picture of a drunk dog on it

Speaker 8 Luke got at me with the cash from his first gig Sam broke it by accident last month. I nearly fed him to pieces.

Speaker 8 Is it really that bad being back in the muck with the rest of us? It's not that.

Speaker 4 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 5 You wouldn't understand.

Speaker 4 Probably not.

Speaker 8 But I'm as good as you're going to get here, especially when you keep biting everyone's heads off.

Speaker 8 Lena.

Speaker 8 She's been sending me out to deal with people. Things.

Speaker 4 Okay.

Speaker 4 And well, they're

Speaker 8 weird.

Speaker 11 Weird like a lobster in a hat?

Speaker 8 Weird or...

Speaker 8 I think I have an idea where our cases are coming from. What are you saying, Gwen?

Speaker 8 I thought maybe we were meant to be documenting them, keeping them monitored or under control, but...

Speaker 8 But then the externals started turning up in the caseload after I gave them instructions and...

Speaker 8 Last time it was this tattooist. I was meant to be recruiting them, only things didn't go well, Alice.

Speaker 7 They went bad.

Speaker 8 Very bad.

Speaker 4 Go on.

Speaker 8 They.

Speaker 8 it. well.

Speaker 8 It turned on me. And I mean, really turned on me.
It was going to kill me, Alice. It killed someone right in front of me, and I was...

Speaker 8 It was ready for me next.

Speaker 8 But... But then another showed up.

Speaker 2 Another what?

Speaker 8 Another thing. Another external.
At least I think it was.

Speaker 8 They faced off and...

Speaker 4 I ran.

Speaker 4 God.

Speaker 8 What did the police say?

Speaker 2 What are you talking about?

Speaker 8 The police? Alice, this wasn't some random mugging. These things, they're awful.

Speaker 4 Horrific.

Speaker 8 They aren't human.

Speaker 8 And Lena knows this? Oh, she knows. She just doesn't care enough to warn us.

Speaker 8 You don't believe me. After what I've seen here over the years, no, I am totally ready to believe Lena would rather hire literal monsters to pay a decent wage.

Speaker 8 Sorry.

Speaker 8 No wonder you've been so arsy.

Speaker 2 I've not been asking.

Speaker 8 So this other external, why did it intervene? I don't know. But like, how did you know it was an external? Because I know how many eyes a regular human is supposed to have.

Speaker 8 Just stood there holding this old tape recorder and.

Speaker 14 What?

Speaker 8 What is it?

Speaker 4 Tape recorder.

Speaker 8 Yes. You're sure? Of course I'm sure.

Speaker 8 Are you not listening to me? I just told you Lena has been hiring supernatural monsters and you're asking about a cassette player of all things.

Speaker 22 Shut up.

Speaker 8 Don't you dare tell me to shut up. Why I think we're in danger.
That's what I've been trying to say for the last five five minutes. Listen, that tape.
Thing.

Speaker 8 This isn't the first time I've.

Speaker 8 What?

Speaker 8 I think they might be after us.

Speaker 8 All of us.

Speaker 8 Alice, what are we going to do?

Speaker 4 I don't know.
