    Stuck in a Space Whale 💫🐋

    hey ya'll. This is a little audio drama I've made about being stuck inside a Space Whale. It's a fun little thing, based in a universe that I've been working on for a potential tv show. Chapters: 0:00 Welcome And Premise 0:30 Mission Log: Trapped In A Space Whale 1:34 Angels And Five-Dimensional Tech 3:48 The Whale’s Shanty Town 5:00 Finding The Inverter 6:21 The Escape Plan 8:12 Inversion And Aftermath 10:24 Sign Off Text for SEO purposes... The story opens with a wry greeting and a bold promise: a compact sci‑fi audio drama that tests the limits of survival and imagination. Our narrator, a hired gun with a mission to recover a five-dimensional inverter, discovers that the target sits within a living maze—an enormous space whale that has swallowed starships, krill, and entire human micro‑civilisations. The podcast leans into vivid worldbuilding without slowing the pace: jet thrusters fighting digestive storms, car‑sized space krill dissolving on contact, and a mission log that reads like a confession. It’s not just spectacle; the premise asks a direct question about problem‑solving under pressure. When an object can reshape time and space, does the shortest path to safety become the only acceptable one, even when it leads through something alive? From there, the episode unspools a brisk history of the angels, five-dimensional beings who seeded the galaxy with tech that lets humanity collapse distance and converse across time. The lore of “five-dimensional wishes” adds texture: shimmering artefacts that let mortals parley with entities outside linear time, bending causality like wire. These elements create SEO‑rich touchpoints—time travel technology, five-dimensional objects, angelic aliens, space opera survival—that ground the drama in a mythology that feels both wondrous and perilous. By framing the inverter as a cousin to other angelic devices, the story hints at rules: inversion as a principle, not a miracle, and consequences that ripple through biology and vacuum alike. The whale’s interior becomes a setting and a society. The narrator stumbles on a shanty town cobbled from swallowed hulls, where barter buys calories and superstition stands in for physics. The tone swings from deadpan to grim as we meet Cricket, the elder guide who understands the currents and the acids better than any star map. Hunger turns neighbours into predators, and engines become lifelines that determine who floats and who dissolves. When our mercenary admits to stealing fuel after being targeted as food, the episode forces a hard look at scarcity ethics: at what point does survival collapse into cruelty, and can anyone claim clean hands inside a stomach where the rules are digestion and decay? The pacing tightens once the inverter appears. It sits lodged on an asteroid trapped above the digestive depths, a visual metaphor for opportunity hovering over entropy. The device itself is described as a canister housing an impossible geometry, an object that looks like many things ageing and collapsing all at once. The science‑fantasy logic is crisp: an inverter inverts signals, so a five-dimensional inverter should invert space and time. This is where the episode hits its thesis—tool choice shapes destiny. The narrator chooses action over caution, trusting that inversion will create an exit even if the cost is irreversible. The tension is physical and moral as jetpacks ignite, the canister opens, and the whale’s body begins to shrink against an unseen gradient. What follows is both triumph and horror. The inversion works, ejecting our narrator into open space while the whale is turned ins Send me Fan Mail! It could be anything, we are desperate at this point.

    Vomit Quest!

    will AI therapy fix me

    OH DEAR LORD. My SOUL hurts. My heart HURTS. My heart has been TORN OPEN. I'm still reeling. Does AI therapy work? In this episode we find out, and I don't want to spoil it, but it is a JOURNEY! The Parts: 00:00 - Intro  01:31 - Part 1: The Premise  08:00 - Part 2: The Session  42:54 - Part 3: Review  Here's the prompt: I want to uncover the masks I'm currently wearing, the roles I'm playing and the illusions I'm believing. Please guide me through the process by asking me ten reflective questions, one at a time to help me recognize the stories the stories I'm currently telling myself. After I answer the tenth question, please step into the role of my higher self and analyse my responses, identify the top negative patterns present in my life and the top positive patterns I can embrace and grow. Be direct, truthful, and tough love is welcome. Then provide daily affirmations to support my growth, actionable steps to change my behaviours and embody my higher most authentic self. Lastly, send a message of encouragement from my higher self to celebrate how far I've come on my journey. Here's SEO text, read it or don't, it is just to boost algorithm thing. What happens when a self-proclaimed people-pleaser confronts his deepest fears with artificial intelligence as his guide? In this raw, transformative journey, I expose my soul to an AI therapy session that cuts straight to the heart of why I've spent a lifetime prioritizing others' comfort over my own truth. The results are nothing short of revolutionary. What begins as an exploration of boundary-setting quickly unravels into something far more profound – the discovery of what the AI calls my "relational apocalypse script." It turns out I'm not just afraid of conflict; I'm terrified that one authentic "no" might trigger a cascade of rejection, career collapse, and social abandonment. Through ten penetrating questions, the therapy session reveals how deeply my Zoroastrian upbringing and family dynamics trained me to believe that "good thoughts, good words, good deeds" meant I couldn't even think negatively without becoming spiritually suspect. Listen as I confront the painful truth that I've been "homeless inside my own life," desperately decorating others' houses in hopes someone might invite me in, while never building walls strong enough to shelter myself. The most powerful revelation? That boundaries aren't acts of cruelty but essential architecture – they're the foundation of the house I get to live in. And the people who respect those walls are the only ones who deserve to see inside. As the AI puts it: "When you show that level of self-respect, you teach people how to treat you, not with fear but with precision." Whether you're a chronic people-pleaser, someone struggling with authenticity, or simply curious about AI's potential to transform psychological patterns, this episode offers a vulnerable window into what happens when technology meets our deepest human struggles. Try the unmasking prompt yourself – it's in the episode description – and join me in discovering that your feelings are not a threat, your truth is not an attack, and your voice does not need approval to be valid.
