I’m sorry for the restraints Mr. Goodman. I know you just want to go home, but you’ve been sick. And we need to run a few tests before we let you leave. I’m going to have them remove your gag, as long as you promise not to scream...

The Shame Eater - Episode Three Feb 28, 2023

Show notes

Millie Minerva had taken over the duties of brewing the crabapple cider from her fasting sister Mercy, the shame eater. It was sweet with a sharp tang that woke up the tongue and provided a lovely light buzz like a spring breeze. Millie’s wasn’t as quite as good as Mercy’s used to be, but only the family could tell and they couldn’t keep the bottles stocked fast enough.

The Shame Eater - Episode Two Feb 21, 2023

Show notes

Mercy Minvera, a fasting girl, had quickly been monikered The Shame Eater for her ability to pull the shame from people and provide relief with her touch. The Minerva sisters - enterprising young girls, started selling cider, and homemade soaps to those standing in line waiting for a visit with Mercy. Any guilt about exploiting their sister's ability slowly washed away with the dreams of buying the neighboring plots of land and re-establishing the Minerva family crabapple orchards.

The Shame Eater - Episode One Feb 14, 2023

Show notes

The Minvera family lived in a fine two-story home, with a wraparound porch, scalloped wood trim like fish scales, a short round tower with a cone roof, and a tiny balcony off the second-story bedroom. It was an inheritance leftover from what was once the family house that looked over a great orchard, but now it sat on a small, uneven plot of land fenced in on each side over time by different neighbors so that each section of property fence ended in odd places with odd alleys between them...

This episode features the poem In Praise of Shame by Lord Alfred Douglas

The Spirit Cabinet - Episode Four Dec 27, 2022

Show notes

The parasites are spreading, making everyone act wild. The sleepwalkers are hunting Curios, something immolated an Overland Dust partner. There are roving clowns stealing faces, witches crawling out of music boxes, and a coal and ash man stealing children. Corruption and poisoners and now murderous sleepwalkers and something is sending wooden casks out into the city. A falling knife has no handle.

The Spirit Cabinet - Episode Three Dec 20, 2022

Show notes

The nights in winter are longer, and colder and darker from the chill. The tracks we follow in the snow, the ones dusted into oblivion, where do they go? Who wandered out into the cold and into the nothingness of the dark? What hunts in that dark? What subverts its own safety to brave that cold?

The Spirit Cabinet - Episode Two Dec 13, 2022

Show notes

The brownstone mansions of Park Row were impressive in their lavishness and the seeping bright colors of pinks and lavenders and shades of indigo. The Bridewell House sat at the end of the lane, trying to hide its institutional shape with strategically placed elm and red oak trees and a high, manicured hedge. The Brickwork that formed the bulk of the structure was a deep, rich red, and its thick paned windows held with iron latches seemed to ready for troubled spirits that might have the inclination to flee.

This episode features the poem Dreamland by Lewis Carroll
