So, I've been distracted lately. Very distracted. During a time-sucking pinterest excursion where I brainlessly scrolled down looking at everything I could be doing but wasn't because I was on pinterest instead... I came across an interesting bit of art. I clicked on it, and discovered that it was fan art of a podcast called Welcome to Night Vale. Thus, my weekend addiction began. I've been listening to it marathon-style for the past three days, and I've caught up to the present. It's... amazing. I am in love. It's bizarre, Lovecraftian, twisted, adorable, and hilarious.
The show takes place in a small, desert community called Night Vale. Cecil Baldwin narrates his radio show and tells stories about the town and its happenings - the secret police that watch over the town, reminders not to go near the dog park and not to approach the Mysterious Hooded figures. There are updates on the station "cat,"Khoshekh, and, of course, the Perfect, Beautiful, Scientist Carlos.
I'm so in love with this show, I don't know how to express it. It's just... fantastic.
