I'm TZ, the creator of Tapes from the Darkside, and today I want to share with you a short

preview of one of our premium episodes.

This episode is about Nate Gaffert, who was the former president of the police union in Mesa.

The story that he tells is about going undercover as a rookie cop into a Macy's bathroom

to try and entrap gay men who are looking to have

sex. Now I'm just going to play you the intro for this episode, and if you want to hear the full thing,

it'll be available ad free on our Patreon and Apple Premium. In our catalog currently are 20

exclusive bonus episodes, and we have many more planned for you.

They range from after shows, short side episodes like this one, personal stories from myself,

and also a new show called The VHS Vault, where we watch bizarre episodes of old talk shows from the 1990s.

For about the cost of one coffee a month, you can get full access to watch bizarre episodes of old talk shows from the 1990s.
