"When a family's maid gets himself killed, they escape from prison." How does he get himself killed? Why are they all in prison? And why do they want a book? Our guest storyteller Peter Fenton is here to work it out -- and largely without Hannah's help, as her audio only half saved on the recording. But Jennie and Peter have the story in capable hands and we were able to cobble together a mostly-coherent story regardless. This one was too good to leave on the cutting room floor! Check out Peter's work @peterfent and on bypeterfenton.com.

"Shortly after being involved in a web of corruption, Sarah becomes tied to a mysterious house." How is Sarah involved? How is the house involved? While we're at it, how is a school involved? Our guest Ally Liddell joins us on this episode to try to untangle this (sometimes literal) web.

We've hit 100 episodes and 4 years of podcasting, and to celebrate, we're inviting a couple of our previous guests to look back at some of our favorite episodes and read absolutely ridiculous AI-written scripts of them. Turns out we still need people for writing stories, because the computers do NOT get it.

Here's to 100 more brainstorming sessions!

"When his girlfriend's family has a loving family to support him, he is transformed into pirates." What exactly is this family dynamic? What life choices is he feeling inferior about? And hold on, he's transformed into pirates, plural? Our guest Charlie Jane Anders helps to make sense of this bizarre beginning! Follow her on Instagram @charliejaneanders and check out her latest work on the Unstoppable trilogy and the New Mutants comics!

"A shy retelling of Shakespeare's 'Macbeth' set at a major company." What major company? How is this retelling shy? And how does the title fit in? Our guest Tina Gallagher is here to make it fit! You can find her online @tinagallagherauthor, or at tinagallagherbooks.com.

"A slovenly cable repairman infiltrates the streets of Manhattan in order to reach his son." Where is the repairman's son? Which of them is a communist? And how exactly does he infilitrate Manhattan's streets? Our guest Chaz Hayden is here to help is work it all out! Follow him online at @thechazhayden and look for his debut novel, "The First Thing About You."

"When Russia's first nuclear submarine malfunctions, a group of beautiful yet troubled twenty-somethings must race to leave her lover." Who is her lover? Which one is the scheming ex? And how does a nuclear submarine fit into all this? Our guest, author Jacqueline Carey, is here to help us fit it all together! Check out more of her and her work at jacquelinecarey.com.

Hannah started a new job last week and completely blanked on getting this week's episode edited and posted -- gah! But just to make sure you still have something on this Thursday, here's a rerun of one of our favorite episodes from December 2021, a romance starring the actor Woody Harrelson as himself.

"A strange old man has a series of surreal encounters with a nurse while becoming torn between following his orders and protecting the world he feels is his home." Well, that sounds ominous... What are his orders? Is he Kay or Clarice? Melissa & Robert of The Haunted Tales Podcast join us to work it all out! You can find them and their work on Twitter @hauntedtalespod and on Instagram @hauntedtalespodcast. (And we hear a rumor that they might even be creating a special episode based on this plot synopsis, so make sure you check that one out!)

"The schemes of a professional monster hunter who will stop at nothing to celebrate the artistic work of their father." What artistic work? Why is it so important to the monster hunter? And who are the two roomies? Our guest Jeneta St. Clair helps us work through all of these questions! Find her on Instagram at @jenetastclair, her show @dryshow_wetcomics, and keep an eye out for the short film Marque Dos, which she appears in!
