Iconic
Night Vale presents has made some strange content. This show, with a full cast and a strange plot, along with stars I know and love such as Charlie Day and Cecil Baldwin, this just might be better than even Night Vale. We don't know until it premieres, but I have my hype on.
Can't wait!!
Just from the teaser episode and cast and crew, I can tell that this podcast will be one for the books (or ears). Can't wait until episode one premieres!
Koster, once again, masters a new medium
The gift of musical and verbal storytelling inherent in Julian Koster's ever-evolving world finds renewal with this new venture. Looking forward to the next episode!
