    As the search for Tanis continues, Nic tracks down the person who placed that strange Craigslist ad, and enlists “Meerkatnip,” an acerbic hacker, straight out of the pages of a Gibson or Stephenson novel, to help him try and make sense of a series of mysterious radio broadcasts.

Twisty Story That'll Keep You Interested

I stumbled across this podcast during the pandemic and lockdown and ended up binging it. It really sucks you in. The main characters are interesting and you'll end up caring about them. Some of the secondary characters can be a little flat, but they still drive the story forward. I was excited to discover that another season had been released after my initial binge and that the series hadn't been shelved. I'm hoping they'll continue to create the show or at least tie it up with a good ending at some point.

Good show

They've improved their craft over the seasons (I've followed for years on iTunes). Some of their peripheral characters need help (all the cops are basically identical and interchangeable unhelpful and obstructive slugs, for instance), but they definitely work at the research and overall presentation.

dang...wow.

This hits so many points I studied back when I was into the Occult and conspiracies. I know who they are talking about sometimes and it feels SO REAL.
If your are familiar with Incunabula and One's Hat...you will love this.
