Camp Placeholder: Time Travel Camp

Comment

Camp Placeholder: Time Travel Camp

If you could time travel, when would you go? Maybe go back to ancient Turkey to see the construction of Gobekli Tepe to really stick it to those archaeology nerds at work? Would you travel back to the 1830’s to see what the climate was like before mass industrialization? How about yesterday to see where you left your right earbud. Whatever choice you would make, chances are pretty good you’d be goin gin blind. That’s why the training offered at Time Travel camp is so essential for children whose future selves end up hurtling through time like so many captains America.

Camp Placeholder: God Camp

Comment

Camp Placeholder: God Camp

Is it still a God complex if you literally create life and control it’s every action? The answer is yes and if you needed that clarification then we have good news! For centuries parents developing manias have found solace in sending their children into the woods to be supervised mostly by slightly older kids. Today this mostly takes the form of summer camp. In this episode of Camp Placeholder some of the Gods, who definitely have complexes, have sent some of their tykes for a developmentally interesting time that you are not going to want to miss.

Camp Placeholder S2E2- "Side Salad Side Kick"

Camp Placeholder, the grass scented, raccoon infested haven of youth. In this episode, the hero helpers of tomorrow invade the camp by the lake and prepare for lives of standing nobly beside the great heroes of the world, adjacent to glory. Maybe this summer will be different though? Is this the summer where it all goes differently?

Camp Placeholder S2E3 - "Super Action Funtimes Go!"

Momo, Tuffie, and Faye are super best camp friends, yay! But not everything’s funtimes in the land of Camp Placeholder. There are monsters in the woods, Lord Head Counselor’s calling for early dismissal, and Counselor Toady is seeming mighty suspicious! Can friendship and visible emotional displays save the world, or will the forces of evil stomp all over happiness in a not-fun way?

Camp Placeholder S2E2 - "Camp Spaceholder"

Young Anton couldn't have been more excited to sign up for space camp, but sometimes expectations crash like a bunch of soggy wet meteors. Where are the computers? Where are the anti-gravity simulators? And why is everyone so dang creepy about how much they love astronomy? The only way to find out is spend a day or two at Camp... Spaceholder?

Camp Placeholder S2E1 - "This is Literally A Placeholder Title; No, Really, It Actually Is"

Young Jamie and Aspen just want the simple things in life, like surviving a summer at computer camp and maybe possibly perhaps someday holding each other's hands. All that stands in their way is a rich bully, the annual talent show, and their own social awkwardness. Can love conquer all, or are these star-crossed kids heading for a harsh dose of reality?
