Aaron rewinds the previous session a bit to flesh out the showdown between Warburton and Junie, Aubrey, and Yakima.

Junie, Aubrey, and Yakima are about to find themselves in the belly of the beast... whether that's literal or figurative is still up for debate. Regardless, a showdown with Warburton is coming and it's going to be one stag do you don't want to get an invitation for.

With everything in Mount Shasta circling around Aubrey La Strega, it's only fitting that she finds herself in the middle of the struggle over the mountain. An old foe has returned with an offer that Aubrey can't refuse... if she wants to stay alive.

Aletta Rosetti has asked the trio for a little quid pro quo - she'll work to get the fuzz off of Junie, Yakima, and Aubrey if they'll investigate whatever strange phenomenon is working against her and her attempt to purchase the Mount Shasta Country Club. What happens next is a crash course on why you shouldn't let a daredevil plan your surveillance activities.

After tackling a... meat weasel... and dispatching with a rather perfidious padre in an explosive fashion, Junie, Aubrey, and Yakima - understandibly - have brought quite a bit of unwanted attention to themselves. Assuming they're able to extricate themselves from their predicament with the French Gulch fuzz, the trio wants answers, especially Aubrey. There's only one person in Mount Shasta who can provide them - the enigmatic Electric Church member who started the whole ordeal, Aletta Rosetti.

Sometimes, no summary can do an episode justice quite like its own title.

It's common knowledge that it's never a good idea to return to the scene of a crime. However, in order to get answers about exactly what is going on within the Electric Church at St. Barbara's, Junie, Aubrey, and Yakima have no choice but to head back to French Gulch - especially when they know the clergy and leaders will be away. Unforunately, they're about to find themselves square in the sights of the town and its sheriff... and she has questions.

Generally speaking, people attend church as a means of avoiding a trip to Hell. Aubrey, Yakima, and Junie apparently haven't gotten that message. St. Barbara's Church is upset - literally - and it's up to Aubrey La Strega to channel some of her Uncle's and Nona's wisdom to calm the chapel down before it consumes the tiny Electric Church hamlet of French Gulch. Can she and her fellow friends-turned-parishioners perform a miracle?

After rescuing Yakima Devlin's crew, Junie figured she might be able to at least settle back into her normal routine at the park and peak. Aubrey, too, was banking on removing herself from the madness of the mountain and any memories about what happened to her five years prior. Shasta, however, has other ideas. A mysterious member of the Electric Church has come into town soliciting an opportunity and, with her Uncle Luca gone, the offer has now fallen square into Aubrey's lap. Will the cast-down cynic get some of her uncle's old-time religion or excommunicate herself from the family business?

Yakima "The Daring Devil" Devlin has a problem. Well... several problems, actually. First, he bent up his bitchin' bike preparing for a Fourth of July stunt spectacular at Mount Shasta's infamous Batty's Briar Patch theme park when his motorcycle jump was... interrupted. Then, after regaining his composure, his entire pit crew was nowhere to be found. To make matters worse, Devlin next came face-to-face with one of Mount Shasta's residents, and we're not talking about one of the townsfolk. Now, with Junie and Aubrey at his side, Yakima is about to get a true crash course in the mountain he's preparing to jump from. Will their search uncover the whereabouts of the Daring Devil crew or just more questions?

Five years have passed since an eclectic group of citizens of the sleepy mountain town of Mount Shasta, California failed to seize on an opportunity to save the famed peak and its surroundings. Now, under the tight grip of the leader of the Goblin Market, Flim-Flam, and with the full financial backing of the Harland Dooney Corporation, the once tranquil-slash-terrorizing sounds of nature have turned into the ka-ching of cash registers. Gone are the gentle (if not sometimes gruesome) woodlands with their flora and fauna; all replaced by Batty's Briar Partch, a litany of theme park rides, t-shirt stands, and the tantalizing smell of churros. The town is now a shell of its former self and its denizens have fared no better - only Junie Bee and Aubrey remain. However, there's a newcomer to the town - a daredevil - and his arrival heralds much more than just a cheap publicity stunt to sell park tickets and overpriced hot dogs. A revolution is on the horizon - the fight to take back the mountain is about to beg

The trap has been set - Mattie, Bucky, and Winston have lured Gaston the Hound, a powerful wildbreaker, into an ambush. All they need to do is get him and his entourage boxed in - literally - on a bridge and let a little fire do the rest. Sounds easy - right? You otter know better than that.

Mattie, Bucky, and Winston have managed to turn Felonious Rump to the Resistance's side. Now, they've been given a new task - protect a cache of Salamander Dust, a powerful explosive, provided to the Resistance by its maker, Yasmin. All they have to do is throw a bloodhound off the scent... literally. Can the trio take on a wildbreaking hound dog and his posse or will their plan blow up in their faces?

Mattie, Bucky, and Winston continue to stumble through Rump's estate, fighting against the witchbird that continues to advance upon them and thwart their efforts to kill it. Now, retreating for their lives, the trio are about to meet several more creatures within the manor - will they be friend, foe, or fowl? Listen to find out if the Resistance is royally screwed...

Mattie, Bucky, and Winston have found themselves trapped with their mark, Felonious Rump, in the solarium of his manor, hunted down by the feathered abomination that Rump let loose when he didn't quite nail his attempt at amateur sorcerey. Now, they must find a way to escape the clutches of the witchbird while simultaneously trying to flip the fat cat to the Resistance's side.

For those of you who celebrate it, we hope you all enjoy a safe and relaxing Labor Day today! Our tailed trio of subversives have managed to secure evidence - leverage - against one of Renard's lackeys, Felonious Rump. However, they soon learned that said evidence came with a unexpected stringy, gooey, grotesque side effect. Whatever Rump has been up to - practicing sorcerous magic in the confines of his estate - doesn't appear to be confined there as an Felonious-like abomination has crashed their safe house. Mattie, Bucky, and Winston will have to think quick on their paws to stay alive and finish their job.

Mattie and Winston, having missed a multitude of signals from their lookout, Bucky, have stumbled into their mark. Now, the trio must think fast - can they find a way to still gather incriminating evidence on Rump while avoiding the encroaching security detail outside his mance? And, if they don't... what next?

Bucky, Mattie, and Winston have taken a job to tail a sinister fat-cat (literally) by the name of Felonious Rump, a lackey of the Renard regime who the Revolution thinks can be flipped easily with the right kind of incrimating evidence. Our tooth-and-fang trio have trailed Rump, cased his joint, and made their battle plan. Our would-be cat burglars, however, are in for a bit of a surprise.

Bucky, Mattie, and Winston, members of the Clowdertown Resistance, are fresh off their latest act of sabotage saving half of the children of Clowdertown bound for King Renard's castle. Now, they have received two new missions from their patron, the dapper otter socialite otter known as Reginald. Together, they must decide which to take and plan their course of action as another tithing looms in the distance.

We're back temporarily releasing episodes bi-weekly (details in this episode)! Dark times continue across the land - Renard's shadow grows longer from his castle across all Four Corners. A perpetual autumn shrouds the land in red and gold, and the furred folk of Clowdertown still woefully send their tithe of children to his court. While some join his army, others are bound for his larder. The Resistance continues to work to save them from their fate and end the reign of King Renard. Join a new ragtag group of animal folk - a rabbit, a cat, and an otter - as they work together to strike back at the foxlord's regime. The time has come to join the fight. The time has come to return to Borchardbriar.
