"Lightbringers of Hogsface" is the forty-sixth episode of season two of Hello from the Magic Tavern. It was originally released on February 5, 2018.
Description
We’ve formed a council to help run Hogsface, and invited Momo the mouse with human strength, Jak Vorpal and the Singing Sword.
Summary
It’s the first meeting of the Council of the Lightbringers of Hogsface (LBOH, pronounced “elbow”) to run the town. Chunt is an oyster now. Banana Man is mayor this week and would like to be called Mayor Manana. Jak Vorpal and the Singing Sword are there, and they are incredibly flirtatious with each other. Momo is also present, and she’s been living in Twosidore’s hat because of cheap rent. Arnie welcomes the podcast audience to also think of themselves as members of LBOH.
Usidore presents the first item on the agenda, a rezoning ordinance to extend the border in the northwest side of town by five feet to the left. No one raises their hand. Arnie catches up with Jak and the Singing Sword since they are now dating, as well as killing people who deserve to die.
Arnie is not excited by the rezoning ordinance, so Usidore moves to the next issue, renaming LBOH because it is too long. After much discussion the council rename themselves to the Department of Homeland Security, although Arnie favors Library Face. Momo and Mayor Manana sit in Chunt’s mouth because he looks like a small couch in his oyster form.
Jak complains that gangs of orphans have been spray painting Usidore’s secret names all over the town. Jak and the Singing Sword proposes killing the orphans, but Usidore suggest rehabilitating them, while Chunt suggests adopting them. Jak and the Singing Sword like the adoption idea since they cannot have children of their own.
Arnie is eating a salad, which surprises everyone since it’s not tomorrow.
During the sponsor break, Jak and the Singing Sword get married by Momo, and Arnie somehow did not notice the ceremony.
Next item on the agenda is the head of streets and sanitation. Usidore isn’t interested in the job anymore. Arnie wonders how kids spray paint in Foon, so everyone explains paint ducks to him.
They also need a new sheriff. Former sheriff Gianessa Relkorus has been so effective disguising herself as a man that they have not been able to find her to restore her to the position, so they’re looking for a new sheriff. Chunt, the Singing Sword, and Momo are all interested in being sheriff.
The poet laureate of Hogsface is also needs to be filled. Jak, Singing Sword, and Chunt compete for the position by reciting poems.
Jak desires to use the Department of Homeland Security to seek vengeance against the baker Paul Miller. Chunt and the Singing Sword also support using the council’s power for their personal vendettas, so Arnie becomes concerned that their power is corrupting everyone.
They discuss the orphan problem again, since Jak and the Singing Sword offered to adopt some orphans, but Arnie, Usidore and Chunt did not. They decide that should each adopt an orphan. Usidore adopts the first one, names him Kid Usidore, and lets him live in his wizard’s hat. Kid Usidore reveals that he knows several of Usidore’s secret names, including Disco Paterson, Funkaroo, and Lance Pantsless. The council also meets Kid Twosidore, who was adopted by Twosidore.
Arnie adopts Poddy and renames him Brad. The group also gives Poddy the position of Comptroller. The group is unsure if Arnie can adopt because he hasn’t taken his Foon citizen test yet.
Momo also adopts an orphan, who Chunt names Kid Rock.
A choir has reserved the room so they move the meeting into Arnie’s Camry. Arnie thanks everyone for coming to the first meeting.
Email: Marta wants Chunt’s modeling photos in badger poses.
Email: Ragnap has met Arnie before and the 20 year high school reunion is coming up. Arnie calls the bluff since he graduated high school more than 20 years ago.
Baker Paul Miller knocks on the Camry door to deliver bread for the council meeting, so Jak takes the Sing Sword and attacks him.
