    core is how you pronounce corps, that is why they are saying it like that. There is no dark mysterious reason other than the fact it’s pronounced in a way that is counter intuitive. The problem is they have spelled it corp instead of corps, which isn’t just a military use although that is most common. These criminals are not a corporation but they are a corps.

  • Evil corp is a wild ride

    Great story, well researched and well narrated. Intriguing. But! For the love of god can you change the wailing semitone glide music that goes on in the background when people are talking , you are using very similar music as you had in the Lazarus group and for missing crypto queen and this droney sound is very off putting and doesn’t sound good. Please do different compositions for the next season. And cut out the wails.

    Thanks.
