Talking heads debated various theories, and a prominent evangelical theologian had a breakdown, believing he had missed the rapture. Days later, they returned, Rising to the surface of every major city through a massive mauve grate. The shelters had been built and armed in case of cold war invasion and forgotten.

Like it!
I love this production, particularly the two episodes of 'The Dark Wife featuring an original twist in the myth of the Greek Goddess Persephone.
The interview is a great addition. Veronica is engaging and informative, and it adds depth to the narration.
Unfortunately, he sound quality is poor for the host's audio tracks and for many of the story narrations.
The stories are good, but the execution could much much better,
