For six days and twenty-three hours, the world has been denied the mercy of falsehood when some truths ought never be spoken aloud.

In Since You Asked, truth has unmade order, driven men into silence, and filled the air with a dreadful unease. Now, in the final hour before the curse is lifted, a frightened young man finds himself confined within an elevator beside a woman whose quiet words conceal the chill of something not wholly human.

Press play, and listen closely to a tale of claustrophobia and creeping terror, where every confession sounds like the beginning of doom.

Was lying the problem… or the only thing holding everything together?

Press play to hear what happens when honesty goes too far.

Ever had a moment where everything looks fine… but nothing feels okay?

This episode explores the part of independence no one prepares you for. When the rent is paid, the routine is stable, and your life technically works… but you don’t.

“I Want My Mommy” is a raw, darkly funny reflection on burnout, pressure, and the quiet realization that doing everything alone isn’t always a strength. Sometimes it’s just survival.

Rising living costs and economic uncertainty are pushing more young adults to move back in with their families.

Known as “boomerang kids,” this situation is becoming increasingly common. Returning home after university or early work is no longer unusual—it is becoming a new reality.

In this episode, we explore the reasons behind this trend: inflation, financial pressure, and changing definitions of independence.
