    It’s a fictional news bulletin that is supposedly only for this small community of mad scientists all living together. And since they all have their over the top projects, it never gets boring. Like, you have the abogato (a cat that is also a lawyer), someone clones themselves way too many times, an artificial intelligence that is making a radio drama about this community but is digging up too many secrets. And hundreds of other funny stories.

      Since this is for the benefit of non Spanish speakers, I feel the need to point out that the word “abogato” is a portmanteau of “abogado” (lawyer) and “gato” (cat).

        Haha yes, I wasn’t sure how much into detail I should go into. And it has been some years so I didn’t remember his origin story that well. I guess it was based on Schroedinger’s cat, right? Time to listen to it again!
