Virgil here. The sky over the allotments looks like a disgruntled fish today. Avoid decisions involving sandwiches and legal matters.

A thoroughly original yet weirdly familiar tale of a world where the barriers of reality have been scraped thin & translucent. I wonder if The Department of Works played a part in the unknowable activities at Station 14. Some mysteries are better left unsolved, but I sorely wish to be told more.

Now I've listened, I must revisit each episode again from the beginning. Again. And I'm still not sure of what I've heard. I feel the need for some diagrams.

A day early? Or have episodes always been released on Tuesdays?

Just been informed that we’ve been knocked off number one in the charts by Jonathan Pie and I think we all know what we have to do this week. Pull together. Tell your mates…

One more episode to go. Spread the word.

Broken Veil is giving me some definite creepy hauntological vibes, very much like @willmac23.bsky.social 's superb Apparition Phase. It's inspired me to take some 1970's Polaroids of a secret establishment that may never have existed in our reality.

Listened twice already. Intrigued, perplexed & alarmed in equal measure. Scary Jesus reminds me of a gazetteer of old stained glass windows I picked up in the honesty bookshop in Hay on Wye. Very damp & mildewed, I photographed many of the pages before they deteriorated further. Here's an example.

Love listening for new book (and author) ideas. As you mentioned stories about the legend, can I point you at The Strange Affair of Spring Heeled Jack, a thrilling steampunk adventure featuring the real life Sir Richard Burton and Algernon Blackwood, by the excellent @markhodderauthor.bsky.social

Could Station 14 be connected to Briggens House, I wonder?

@scarredforlife.bsky.social many scars are formed by half-remembered & misunderstood viewings of 1970s children's TV that was never intended to alarm. Unfortunately today I discovered this, and the memories came rushing back, especially the nightmare fuel around 3 minutes 30 youtu.be/uK-sWhtcMuw?...

The correct amount of pancakes is to stop eating when all the raisins/lemon juice/Nutella has run out, isn't it?
