Welcome to Night Vale: an appreciation of the spookiest, funniest podcast

Oh, I’d love a longer version too - it’s just that I think their comic timing is a bit off. Most of the really funny bits are one-liners, which are tossed off en passant; when they set up a longer joke they drag it out way, way, longer than it can really support.

I also sorta wish the tone weren’t quite so arch/ironic; of course none of this is real, but I wish Cecil sold it a bit more horrifically. (A bit more Lovecraft, a bit less “comedy parody of Lovecraft”.) Ah well. It’s still fun.

And Desert Bluffs sucks.
