Hello folks. I'm very, very excited today to share with you a preview to our new show called

Sword and Scale Nightmares. We've been working on this show behind the scenes since last

year, and we think you're really going to like it. One of the wonderful things about Sword

and Scale that really set us apart early on was the use of audio clips such as interrogation

audio and trial testimony, which adds a level of immersion to the story that feels like

you're watching a well-produced TV documentary. But not every story lends itself well to this

format, and sometimes the clips simply don't exist. Not to mention, we've heard directly

from you over the years. We've heard what you like and what you don't like, and that

you all don't like the same things, necessarily. So we've gone back to the drawing board, and

reimagined how to tell these stories in a refreshing new way. For this new series, that means

no clips, no jump scares, no loud techno music, and no unsolicited, unnecessary opinions

from that over-aponinated narrator. What an ass that guy is. The result is what we're

calling true crime for bedtime, i.e. bedtime stories for adults. Now we've tried something

like this before. You might remember Monstro, but let's face it, the feeling, the vibe,

wasn't quite right. But I think we've finally nailed it, though. And if you like Sword and

Scale, you'll most likely enjoy Sword and Scale nightmares. You might even like it more.

By the same token, if you don't like Sword and Scale for all the reasons I just stated,

then maybe you'll still enjoy. Then you show. Now, in order for this show to be a success,

we need your help. So I'm going to ask you for a favor. If you're listening to this

right now, please take a moment and head on over to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your

preferred podcast listening platform, and subscribe to Sword and Scale Nightmares right

now. It really is going to make a world of difference if you do. And just so you know,
