On this episode, we’re giving the feed over to a podcast we think you’ll really love - Conversations with Ghosts. It’s the newest audio drama from the creators of Archive 81, The Deep Vault, and Generation Crossing, and it’s all about loss, history, and the things we leave behind. Conversations with Ghosts 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. 

This episode, “The Baseball Fan,” involves Mal Flemming talking to a ghost who won’t pass on until the Dodgers move back to Brooklyn.

On this episode, special guest Neil Verma tries to show Jonathan what there is to love about old-time radio drama by playing him the classic 1948 drama The Thing on the Fourble Board by Wyllis Cooper. 

Here’s a link to Neil Verma’s essay about The Thing on the Fourble Board.

He also has two books you might like:

Theater of the Mind, a study of how American radio drama from the 1930s–50s developed its own narrative grammar through voice, space, sound, and psychology to create an intimate, interior “theater” uniquely suited to the medium.

Narrative Podcasting in an Age of Obsession, an examination of how contemporary narrative podcasts, from true crime to fiction to documentary hybrids, use style, structure, intimacy, and serialized attention-engineering to shape our current culture of listening and fixation.
