  • There's Something Wrong with Ms.Wexler
    Today, we’ll be checking in on a colleague of mine.

    She’s well-liked by her students, takes care of the needy, and truly sees the people that her students are. What an educator, right?! Well I’ve received some reports that she’s been acting rather strangely lately.

    This story is called: There's something wrong with Ms. Wexler

  • My Childhood Home Wants Me Back
    Tonight, let’s walk among the ghosts of our childhood homes!


    It’s a tale as old as time: A young family snags a great deal on a spacious old house. A bedroom for both kids, and room enough for an office or two! Big back yard to play in, imaginary friends with too much skin, shuffling footsteps in the night, and little doors that don’t lead where they should! It’s the American dream. Wait just a moment. What were those last few things again?

    This story is called: I think my childhood home wants me back

  • The OAK
    Tonight, lets have a little therapy!


    Our protagonist is a young therapist in the first few years of their practice. They meet a new client with a problem that I’ve never read about in the DSM—they’ve stopped being a person. Well, sounds pretty treatable, right? Ha ha ha… well, wait’ll you hear about the OTHER symptoms.

  • My School Had a Hidden Basement...
    Tonight, let’s finally settle some urban legends about our school!


    Our protagonist and his friend Alex are curious middle schoolers, who enjoy investigating silly urban legends that circle around their old school. Haunted bathrooms, pools on the roof, you know the stuff!

    There’s only one problem: urban legends aren’t supposed to be real. As the stone staircase behind the janitor’s closet twists away into the dark, the boys may have finally confirmed one…. at their peril.

    This story is called 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27… thirty

  • I'm Not Dead. My Social Media Says Otherwise

    Tonight, we’ll meet Dalton; a perfectly ordinary—if a little BROKE—young man living in a comfortable, small town. Until a social media notification dings in one evening that changes everything: Rest in peace, man. Gone too soon.

    Surely it’s a joke, or some new trend. The dead don’t keep going to their 9 to 5, do they?!

    This story is called: I'm not dead. My social media says otherwise. And was written by J.L. Goodwin

  • Gone Fishing
    Tonight, let’s knock off early and put a line in the water!


    Ahhh yes, the classic, soothing pastime of fishing. No longer a necessity for food, now we don’t even have to catch anything! Just sit back in the shade, have a cool drink, and let the world slide by.

    Speaking of sliding by…did you see that? It was probably nothing.

    But uh, say—do you remember the story Floods? I’ll put a link on screen for our YT viewers, and a link to the story in the show notes for our podcast listeners. As I recall, there were a few loose ends in that story that never got resolved. But surely those nasty threads couldn’t reach us down here by the quiet riverbank, right? ….right?

    This story is called “Gone Fishing”, and was written by A.G. Hilton.
