In the world’s most dangerous working environments it can seem like everything is out to kill you. The equipment you use. The materials you work with. The very air you breathe. Stored energy is a coiled viper waiting for the right moment to lash out. Owners, manufacturers, contractors, and beyond have developed safety protocols to combat STCKY, that is, Stuff That Can Kill You. Gravity, Motion, Mechanical, Electrical, Pressure, Sound, Radiation, Biological, Chemical, Temperature.  This season is all about the means of murder as authors put our STCKY detective skills to the test. This is Season 9, Stuff That Can Kill You.

Episodes drop every other Friday 1:30pm eastern.

Drops January 9

Phidias Quinn has more than the Watchers to worry about with someone suffocating Hank. He needs our help to solve Hank’s murder so he can get back to the butterflies. Here are the people in the Crystal Cave of the Watchers in the order we met them:

  • Eunice, the hot, wannabe starlet
  • Professor Theobold, who keeps losing his lines
  • Lady Cartwright, Hank’s almost ex-wife
  • Peg, the workaholic script girl and Mel’s secret weapon
  • Mel Moskowitz, B-movie director extraordinaire
  • Dr. Mylo E. Christos, supposed entomologist
  • Angry father, the guy who found the body
