The Larva Face (IRONCLAD BEETLES)

About this episode

The episode discusses the uncrushable ironclad beetle while touching on various pop culture references.

The uncrushable beetle has arrived in all his bedazzlements. Tangents include America's Next Top Model, Frankenstein, and a lot of wrestling talk. And Amanda picked a name that was already a superhero, so I had to choose a different title.
