Finally, a brand new episode of Welcome to Night Vale to recap!

…which takes us about five minutes, since it’s something of an experimental episode that doesn’t have a plot so much as an overwhelming atmosphere of dread. The recap is notable for the fact that we try to see how many times we can use the word “creepy” in one episode.

Then it’s off to the races as we do our usual SitRep, talk about episode four of The Mandalorian, season three of Hannibal (with a quick digression to mention the actor who was a body double for Tom Hiddleston NOT THAT KIND HE DOES HIS OWN BUTT SHOTS), the upcoming season two of His Dark Materials, the San Diego Comic-Con online Art Show, and speaking of selling things have you listened to the podcast The Dream yet? Well you should, and we’ll tell you why…

Correction: Turns out Kathryn got the origin story for Slenderman wrong. He didn’t get his start in Reddit, he was invented in the Something Awful forum. Or WAS he? No, he totally was.
