Lost sleep

I stumbled on this thanks to the algorithms, I guess, and needed something new to listen to. Rainn Wilson? Sure, why not. I had pretty low expectations going into it because I have heard similar podcasts that were not nearly as well done. Just be careful binging this…you’ll be sleeping with the light on and a bat next to your bed.

This podcast is a lot like your favorite band

Their first album was better. so I totally understand as time goes on. It’s hard to keep up with having to write creatively, but the stories are lacking and not as interesting as they used to be. Hope it changes back the way it was.

So good!

I LOVE and have always had a deep, deep love for scary stories, spooky, creepy, and unexplained things that go bump in the night. Creepypasta. I just found out about this yesterday, and I cannot stop binging it! Thank you so much for catering to us spookyfolk! 💜
