FICTION There’s the family you grew up with: your mom, your dad, your siblings. And then, there’s the family you carry around in your head for the rest of your life. This show is about that second family, the one that lives within. From Mermaid Palace, Sharon Mashihi brings you Appearances, a one woman audio show that straddles the line between fiction and truth. Appearances brings to life an Iranian American family and community through the real and fantastical mental machinations of Melanie Barzadeh. Melanie is in her mid 30’s and desires nothing more than to become a mother. The difficulty of finding the right partner seems to be directly connected to the struggles witnessed in her home throughout her entire childhood. As Sharon Mashihi voice-acts all the characters in one family, the depth of the love, pain, and struggle is felt with honesty and humour at every turn.

If you’ve ever thought to yourself, “Wow, I’d really love to listen to Reply All/Hyperfixed's Alex Goldman and former VICE culture writer Caroline Thompson absolutely lose their minds watching every Amityville movie ever made,” then boy do we have a podcast for you! On a cold November night in 1974, 23-year-old Ron DeFeo Jr. picked up a .35 caliber rifle and crept room to room in his lakeside family home in Amityville, New York. By dawn, his mother, father, and four younger siblings all lay cold and dead in their beds. Over the last half century, this gruesome family annihilation and the alleged paranormal haunting that followed have inspired the production of nearly 100 films in the Amityville Horror franchise. And Alex and Caroline are ready to watch them all. Welcome to Amityvilleville, a podcast dedicated to driving its hosts to the brink of insanity. Join Alex and Caroline as they make their way through the entire back catalog of this terrifying, campy, fly-filled series one week at a time.
