She disappears for exactly 22 minutes at a time

Five hours of life inside Janet's Void. Hey The Good Place fans, ever wonder what not-a-person not-a-woman humanoid-appearing sentient database Janet does when she pops back to her void? Wonder no more. Fun fact: When she leaves the void, she returns after exactly 22 minutes. A (SLYT) bit of existential whimsy for your Monday.
I love how the chat goes crazy when she bings out of the void.

My wife got into The Good Place so we just watched it all last month. I have a theory that because (SPOILERS) Jason married Tahani, next season we'll see that Donkey Doug inherited a lot of money. ;)

Based on earlier things in The Good Place, I do not believe this is what happens in the void. Like, she spends time recording messages or journal entries or something. So yeah, I thought this was tedious. I love, love, love the podcast, however. Sometimes new, random episodes pop up and I am thrilled when they do.

"Janet is the Mona Lisa."
Well, think about it. The Mona Lisa is often held as the basic standard of human visual pleasantness. If YOU were the one who designed Janet, wouldn't YOU have been aiming for exactly that?
