Finally getting around to listening to Welcome to Night Vale.  I don't know why it took me so long.  I love it.  It's the News from Lake Wobegon, if it were written by H.P. Lovecraft.  Or maybe the news from Arkham, Massachusetts as read by Garrison Keillor.
Yes!  I love that show!  It's so...weird.  A typical episode will have inane-seeming gossip, some funny/heartwarming stuff, and goddamn nightmare fuel.  Kevin in particular is creepy as fuck.

Kevin: "Their mouths are open. No one has ever seen smiles quite like that. What an interesting way to smile! Their legs are kicking, too, like they’re still trying to dance..."

Because I had a scare when a bunch of Tom Lehrer stuff turned up in my "you might also be interested" list on Amazon; I thought the Great Lyricist had died.

Thankfully, not.

Just rewatched that episode a night or two ago. So depressing.


The entire show is one big existential crisis. If you're lost in the world or in your life it hits harder.
