Before we begin with our show, I'd quickly like to recommend another show that I've really been

0:04.8

enjoying. It's called American hysteria, and it's a podcast that explores how fantastical thinking,

0:10.5

moral, panics, urban legends, and conspiracy theories have shaped our culture. The show has

0:16.5

covered the topics ranging from phantom clowns to satanic cults to mind control. I'm actually

0:22.8

currently writing an Amelia Ghost episode for season 5 part 3, so I was especially interested

0:28.4

in an episode about haunted dolls that featured a story about an online market where you can

0:34.4

buy yourself a soul trapped in the body of a doll. There's also a whole episode on haunted

animal themed supercar. It's a parody of podcasting and a love letter to comics all in one.

1:43.1

These are the stories between the panels, what happens after the punching is done and the hero

1:48.2

flies away. I got to listen to an episode and love to dry wit and the affectionate lampooning

1:54.3

of NPR. Season 2 of Superhuman Public Radio is out now. You can find and listen to superhuman

2:01.4

public radio anywhere you listen to podcasts, or thanks to superhuman public radio for their

2:06.0

support, and you'll hear a trailer for the show after this episode.
