my son, the puppy
This summer I adopted a kitten. I named him Robert. He's 7 months old now, so he's getting long and tall, but still so full of energy. If you've had cats before, none of this is new. Youknow. I don't gotta tell you how fun kittens are, right?But Robert does something that I've ne...

Director’s Notes: Episode 258 - Swap Meet
I did not set out to make a Night Vale Sanitation Department trilogy when I wrote my very first episode (Ep 101 Guidelines for Disposal) seven years ago. I was not playing the long game where I strategically planned to drop a new installment of the waste utilities saga every 3-4 years. But that’s ...

Director’s Notes: Episode 257 - Traffic
A few months ago I traded in my truck. I lived in a rural area of the Hudson Valley for the past many years, and I owned a Ford F150. Really helpful for carrying lumber and soil for garden and woodworking projects. Also for hauling trash once a month to the county dump. But as I mentioned in my last...

Vulture-Wally (the only song i've ever written)
