[ the last time she graced the network with her presence, diana of themyscira explored the wonder of food emojis. now, however, she decides to take a more traditional approach — face-to-face, well, as much as she can over these devices. while she still prefers to meet in person, this will suffice for now. what can she say, she's old fashioned like that. ]

Thanksgiving.

[ she speaks the word softly, almost contemplative, though diana offers a bright smile into the camera. ]

Back home, we had many reasons to be thankful, and we did not limit the occasion to one day. Still, family and friends. [ her smile widens. ] That is something to celebrate.

What other — [ a careful pause, her nose wrinkling a bit. ] "holidays" are there?

PUTCHA HANDZUP RADIO ( audio • un: present.mic )

[yeeeeeeah]

[ Featured! An audio player coming to you straight from Riverview Radio for PUTCHA HANDZUP!'s monthly podcast special. You can tune in every weekday starting now for all the latest from Present Mic, though! Here's a transcription for your convenience, folks!

The starting song is the ever classic 24K Magic by the Bruno Mars which fades in and out after these words from our sponsors. Over the last of the fading notes comes the very loud and very gravelly: ]

EVERYBODY SAY HAAAAAAAAY!


Are you ready to get started, huh, Riverview!? Present Mic here coming to you straight outta Tokyo!! Or... A version of Tokyo, anyway. I'm new here and I know I am not the only one! With that in mind, and with us having no submissions as a brand new show, we're going to spend a lot of time focusing on our theme of new connections! READY?!?!

[ Song number two starts up and finishes, with Present Mic talking over the last little bit. ]

Anyone else heard of that one that isn't from my world?! I can't help but wonder how many little ways our worlds overlap. We all know what spoons are, right? Anyone from a modern sort of era is going to have a TV, a mobile... Ah what else... Well, we definitely have a lot of things that overlap is the point! These little moments of familiarity are where we can start to connect with each other. Even as I've found a fair few people from home, [ He pauses to clear his throat and give a very enthusiastic PLUS ULTRA!!! and gives a cheeky little chuckle afterward ] It's still necessary for survival for us to make new connections right?! RIGHT?! I want to hear aaaaall your stories of unexpected connections.

I just recently met my first alien! How insane is that!? I'm sure to most of you - pft - that's old news!! How could he have never met an alien before?! Ah, our world had to take a few sacrifices in the name of science when quirks-- Ah, sorry! Superpowers were discovered among the population! So, Riverview gave me my first alien. I thought he had a quirk just like the rest of us, that Riverview was no different than home! Pretty straight faced kind of guy, but y'know that type I've always been easy to get along with. We're going to take our break now, don't go away, the conversation is just. getting. warmed up!!!
