If you’re looking for some horror fiction to listen to and you haven’t checked out @observableradio.com, I’d recommend you give us a listen. We’re posting short stories every month as we chip away at season 2, and some folks said season 1 gave them nightmares :)

Did you know we have a YouTube channel where our episodes exist in video form? Once upon a time our host hopefully posted every episode as a video, but now the onus falls on Cameron, which means it’s behind.

However we should be caught back up in a couple of weeks, as we stagger the backlog!

When I first started this story it was absolutely about a Capgras delusion, but I think it’s so much more interesting as an open-ended folk horror/suburban fairy tale. Plus, fucked up deer.

This was my favorite of the interseason stories so far. Heart-wrenching twist to this paradigm of story.

We literally have an @observableradio.com episode about why this sucks

Like I know we keep posting this about various news stories but

1) the power of anthologies I guess, we cover a lot of ground

2) STOP MAKING THE TORMENT NEXUS YOU GUYS

Can I just say that as a new listener, @observableradio.com ‘s ‘Large Models’ episode is way too kriffing relevant? Which is why it was the most disturbing episode.

I feel like we could put a stop to all the damage Elon Musk is doing personally if just one of us, anyone, was willing to go round to his for a pizza and movie night, maybe play some Pokemon with him.

The price is too high.

My first audio drama script (for the Mayfair Watchers Society podcast) just finished recording, and I cannot wait to listen. I know the actors knocked it out of the park! I think it's a nasty little thing, inspired by house of leaves and other stories of malignant spaces. More soon!
