"Tossing Grenades at Windmills" - Episode 47: "The Emerson Portfolio" First Episode in Two Years

After a mysterious two-year hiatus, Rhombus Ticks returns with his most dangerous episode yet. What started as genealogical research in his late grandfather's Louisiana estate has uncovered something that defies explanation - a century-old folio containing documents that shouldn't exist.

In this extended episode, Rhombus shares the complete "Emerson Portfolio" - a collection of interconnected stories, poems, and accounts that chronicle encounters with the enigmatic Queen in Blue and her relationship to the infamous King in Yellow. From Ambrose Bierce's final journal entries in the Mexican desert to a WWII-era vigilante's encounter with cosmic horror, from ancient poetry carved in impossible languages to modern detective work in a world where magic bleeds through the cracks of reality.

Content Warning: This episode contains complex narrative elements involving shifting perspectives, reality distortion, and themes that may be challenging for those with identity disorders or schizophrenia. Listener discretion strongly advised.

Why did Rhombus disappear for two years? What happened when he mentioned finding the fifth stanza of "I, Hastur"? And where is he now that this recording has surfaced?

"Some questions should never be answered. Some doors should never be opened. Some podcasts should never be published. But here we are." - Final note found in Rhombus Ticks' abandoned studio
