Embedded Files
At the turn of the moon for Tumaiguini (Chamoru New Year), a seam in the fabric of the universe tears open, allowing a malicious unknown Alien superpower to enter our world. Best friends, Ren and Mai, set out on a journey to get a rice cooker — unbeknownst to them, they’ve set out on a journey of chaotic self discovery, intense bart rides, and demon cuckoos. Oh, and there’s some Queer love and healing in there too.

Auntie Bobbie has sat you down to tell you the story of why Guam is shaped the way it is. Although she doesn't remember all of it, she tries her best. She does all the voices and sound effects. The story seems to dig a bit deeper into Auntie Bobbie's life than we would expect, helped by the many wine coolers that Auntie Bobbie is drinking.
Based on a traditional CHamoru folktale, The Young Maidens Who Saved Guam.
