World Gone Wrong: a fictional chat show about friendship at the end of the world episodes

October 17, 2025 Michael & Gabriel introduce - The Harbingers
Our team has a new show! Michael Turrentine (Malik) and Gabriel Urbina (writer WGW seasons 4 & 6) chat about the new show. And then you’ll hear the full first episode. The first three episodes of THE HARBINGERS are out now. You can find it wherever you are listening to this!
THE HARBINGERS
Adam Blackwell and Amy Stirling met as graduate students in anthropology, both obsessed with studying the same dead language and long-lost culture. Their relationship was always... complicated. They were bitter rivals, ideological opposites, and even went out on a date once - though they’d really prefer if everyone forgot about that last thing, thank you very much.

Then, they became the first two people in thousands of years capable of doing magic.

Over the next five years, they became global superstars, both revered and feared. Their powers led to a tragedy unlike any the world had seen before. Now, the world's first two magicians of the modern age must figure out the truth of their power, its consequences, and their relationship with one another before they do more damage to the world.
