We're showcasing a macabre comedy we think you'll enjoy – Wooden Overcoats! It's a gloriously silly British sitcom about a funeral home on a tiny island. Rudyard Funn and his sister Antigone run Funn Funerals, where they try to get the body in the coffin in the ground on time.

But one day, the impossibly charming Eric Chapman opens his own funeral parlour just across the street. Rudyard and Antigone will need to take drastic steps to stay in business...

In this episode, "The Ghost of PiLling Vale", Rudyard steals a client from Eric Chapman by oLering them a séance with the deceased!

If you're a fan of Archive 81, we think you'll really like Spirits!

Spirits is a history and comedy podcast focused on everything folklore, mythology, and the occult, told through the lens of feminism, queerness, and modern adulthood.

Every week mythology buff Julia and her childhood best friend Amanda get together to learn about a different story from mythology and folklore over drinks. That's everything from the mythological origins of major franchises like Lord of the Rings and Wonder Woman, to crash courses on the pantheons of mythologies from around the world, to monthly roundups of spooky firsthand accounts submitted by their listeners.

And there's over 450+ episodes, so you've got so much to listen to, whether you're here for analyses of mental health in mythology or creepy modern ghost stories.

In this episode, Julia and Amanda revisit one of the most horrifying listener submitted stories they've ever discussed on the show: A tale of terrifying mushrooms, haunted caves, and what lurks in the dark.

If you enjoy this episode and want to hear more, dive in at spiritspodcast.com, or search for Spirits wherever you download your podcasts.

Yes, you read the title correctly, Dan and Marc made a NEW podcast. It's our first audio drama since Archive 81 and we're SUPER excited about it.

It's called Conversations with Ghosts, and it follows mausoleum attendant Mal Fleming as he tries to convince the spirits of Grey Briar Cemetery to pass on. In each episode, Mal sits down with a new ghost to build a portrait of their life, their death, and their afterlife... all to help them release whatever still ties their soul to this reality. It's a mix of NYC history, horror, and really fun sound design.

It's on an entirely seperate feed from Archive 81, but you can listen to it wherever you get your podcasts - Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube - literally wherever: https://pod.link/1843137773

We're previewing an episode in this feed, but there are ALREADY two episodes in the Conversations with Ghosts feed, so go over to the Conversations with Ghosts feed, listen to the episodes, subscribe, and tell your friends.

We've been working on this new project for a while, and we really think you'll like it. So... take a listen!

Like we said in the title, our next project, Generation Crossing, is out NOW.

Generation Crossing is an album. More specifically, a series of monologues scored by music - it's about an 800 year journey to a distant planet, and the society that forms during that voyage.

If you're a fan of Archive 81 or The Deep Vault, we think you'll really enjoy it.

It's available on Spotify, Apple Music, Bandcamp, or wherever you listen to music. For links, go to generationcrossing.com.

Dan and Marc answer questions and talk about the future of Archive 81. Somehow, we get into a tangent about Simon and Garfunkel.

Our next Archive 81-related thing will be a miniseries called "Left of the Dial." We reserve the right to change this. Goodbye for a little bit. But we'll be back
