The seventh slide has a light orange background and a title that says "This show is for people who…" It reads, in bulletpoints: "Can't stop talking even when they try." "Don't talk much even when they try." "Forget to contact their friends and aquaintances for months or years at a time and feel a resonating guilt because of it." "Feel powerless in the world." "Have been hurt by those who claim to love them." "Struggle to feel human." "Like the aesthetics of steam trains but don't expect them to follow the laws of physics." At the bottom, another line of text says "Anyone else, if you've read this far, probably!". There are a series of images around the text. A "WARNING CAN'T STOP TALKING" sign, a graphic of a circular cute being that says "So sorry I didn't text you back", a graphic of humans being controlled like marionettes, an "I THINK A LOT BUT I DON'T SAY MUCH" sign, a screenshot from the Road to Eldorado with the caption "Hey, to err is human", a "The laws of physics in my stories are poetic. o they don't complain when I break them" graphic, a "12 Fundamental LAWS OF PHYSICS" graphic right by a train that has a speech bubble that says "I don't need to follow those!" The eighth slide has a dark orange background with the title "Who's making it?" It reads, in bulletpoints: "Lumi Oakes, producer of Wanderer's Journal, is writing/directing/producing." "Timothy Rafael, writer of Wanderer's Journal, plays a significant part in story development and has also been recruited as the voice of Log." Next to this there is a graphic of a tree Log with a speech bubble that reads "That's me!". There are pictures by the text of someone writing, a directing and producing chair, and the Wanderer's Journal cover art. The final bulletpoint reads: "See more information about people involved so far at mechadovapod.com!" with a speech bubble to it that says "I have soo much information". The Mechadova Engine cover art appears in the bottom right corner. The ninth and final slide has a light orange background with the title "When can I listen to it?" It reads, in bulletpoints: "Show is in early production, but you will be able to hear episode 1 in early 2026, followed by a crowdfunder!" "You will only be able to listen to more of it if we make the crowdfunding goal, so stay tuned!" "There will be a casting call by the end of 2025, so if you're a voice actor (especially if you're queer, a person of color, and/or disabled) keep an eye out!". Around the text there are images. The Mechadova Engine cover art with a "Coming Soon" sign hanging from it, a "STAY TUNED" graphic, and a graphic that says "WE WAN'T YOU!" with the caption "To Audition For Our Podcast!" next to it.

The fourth slide has a dark orange background with the title "Who are the characters?" and the second title "Log (they/them)". It reads, in bulletpoints: "Autistic, Agender, Aroace (AAA) and Mexican." "Has read more books than you." "[Guy who has only read books voice] Wow, this person looks just like a book illustration if it was three-dimensional!" "Would read you bedtime stories if you were a worm (the bedtime story would be a thrilling dictionary from the 19th century)." "Voiced by Timothy Rafael." To the right there are a series of images. A sunflower lanyard, the agender flag, the aroace flag, the flag of Mexico, an AAA battery, books, the oxford illustrated dictionary of 19th century language, and a picture of a worm with an aro pointing to it and text that reads "That's You!". The fifth slide has a light orange background with the title "Who are the characters?" and the other title "Tinker (any pronouns)". It reads, in bulletpoints: "Aromantic, Genderqueer and Black". "Would qualify as a cowboy under different circumstances." "Is clearly going through something they're good at not talking about." "Would take you on a risky mission on top of a moving train to see the sunset if you were a worm." "Voiced by Rhys Tirado." Around the text, there are a series of images. The aromantic flag, the genderqueer flag, a cowboy hat, a lion king image of Simba captioned "But I don't want to talk about it", and a worm on top of a train by a picture of a sunset with an arrow pointing to it with text reading "That's You!" The sixth slide has a dark orange background and a title that reads "Who are the characters?" with the other title "And More..." It reads, in bulletpoints: "Would nonchalantly make a spreadsheet to organize your supploes and find you a good patch of dirt if you were a worm." "Would immediately confiscate you into a box and look terrified whenever you move if you were a worm." "Would put on commedia dell'arte inspired plays for you if you were a worm." "Would take notes about ou to archive your information if you were a worm. (and make you some really good worm food). At the bottom it reads "The list goes on, but let's not give the whole show away…" Around the text there are a series of images. A spreadsheet, a box with a "CAUTION DO NOT OPEN" sign, a worm by a picture of a work computer, a patch of dirt with a picture of a worm, and commedia dell'arte masks with a picture of a worm underneath.
