The Milkman of St. Gaff’s

This podcast is what would happen if Andy Griffith met the Twilight Zone. It’s a Kafkaesque Candide. A Lovecraftian Moral Orel. If any of that sounds like your kind of thing, I cannot recommend this highly enough.

TheExParrot ,

Yes!

The way that this one man band has managed to create a beautifully atmospheric and surreal story with great voice acting for every character, but especially Howie, is beyond me. The use of the 1st person narrative, which I don’t see a lot in podcasts, is used amazingly to establish the unreliable narrator and always leaves me a little unsure of what is actually real and what is Howie hallucinating. Dark but in a cheerfully light way. The glowing whale bones religion holds a special place in my heart.

Very hard to describe this show

The humor is unmatched. Fun story, engaging mystery, outstanding narration, and most of all it’s brilliantly weird! Only complaint is that I have to wait 2 weeks for a new episode.
