“Brilliant show concept -stories of the night; spanning from ancient hidden cave art in France to interviews of people in an Oakland donut shop at 3am. Each episode is its own little world, transporting you to something so far sways and foreign, yet so familiar. Vanessa the host is an expert...”Read full review »

“… that I both appear on it (the episode I Don’t Get Lost), and happily support it via Patreon.
There are few podcasts that sound so sonically rich as Vanessa’s, and is well worth your time.”
“I just found this show and it’s nearly perfect at helping me wind down the day. The story telling feels meticulously told. This show has a similar feeling as Rumble Strip, This Is Love, Here Be Monsters. So glad I found this show! Please keep making this show… you’re making beautiful art!”

I’ve felt a connection to the subject in many episodes, whether it’s a feeling, a mental state, or an experience, I could relate.
