A bookkeeping note.

"I thought the anthology season was Season 5? ...But now the Daniel Shaver story is Season 5? What happened?"

I originally planned this case to take one episode. But over the past months, the story has grown to an unwieldy length. It finally reached a point where I would be doing a disservice to everyone to try and tell it in a single episode.

That's the long way of saying that the anthology season is still alive and well. It has just been retitled: Season X.

You can find it on Patreon and tapesfromthedarkside.com under the Season X tab. On other podcast apps, it will be an listed as Season 6 (for now).

We'll be adding to the 1-case / 1-episode format down the road.
