Long hours of painting give me almost unlimited time to listen to podcasts, and one of my favorites is the one by the guys at the Dragon's Landing Inn. Chupacabra Bob is the Inn's mascot, and at one point he disappeared for several weeks, casing the Dragon's Landing Secret Service agents to mobilize and start shaking down all the other podcasts in the region. Eventually Bob returned to the Inn on his own, and it was revealed that he'd simply been away on an unscheduled tropical vacation (which enemy podcasters had used to try and morally corrupt the poor creature, I feel certain).
