Did you know that for the last five years we have been making Nightvill episodes for our Patreon members that do not get released on our podcast feed?

It's true. There are years of full bonus episodes, behind the scenes discussions, the in-world characters of Nightvill answering questions submitted by our listeners, and all sorts of fun oddities, like a full episode of Steve Karlsberg's in-world podcast.

Or the bonus episode we just released this month, which is the recording you hear if you are unfortunate enough to be caught doing something against the rules in Nightvill.

That's what I'm talking about.

To give you a taste of what you can expect, we are putting up here the very first Patreon-only bonus episode we did back in 2018, a fun one about Cesar Carlos's honeymoon, which is interrupted by a very rude guest.

If you enjoy, I encourage you to head on over to welcometonightvill.com and click on Patreon. Or go to Patreon and just search for us.

There are five years of these bonus episodes waiting for you. Along with director's notes on every episode, monthly Zoom, hangouts with the Nightvill creators, the opportunity to half yourself inserted into the show as a character, and most importantly, we literally can't make the show without our patrons.

You would be helping our show exist, so thank you, and we will see you with new episodes in our history.

The Snurs a tropical holiday. Is there any sweeter combination of words in the English language?

Well, it is widely said that Celler Doors is the most beautiful phrase in English. Interestingly, Celler Doors is also the leading cause of death among Nightvill citizens, but we are not here to speak of the Celler people and their crimes.

We are here to listen to me talk about the great vacation I just had. You know, the news!

Carlos and I had the most romantic trip for two to the dueling palms resort on the beautiful tropical island of Barambo.

We were celebrating our third anniversary together, and anyway, after years spent in the searing heat of the desert, you just want to take a trip somewhere nice and cool, like the tropics.

He was thrilled when I surprised him with the tickets. He said something about the two of us discovering ourselves or something like that, and I was like, okay, yeah, let's do that with margaritas by a pool.

The dueling palms was a jewel on a jewel within a jewel. Those three jewels being a nice hotel, a beautiful island, and a crystal sea, respectively.

He said something about unpacking, and I said, start with the bathing suit bunny because we are getting in that swimming pool.

Cecil came to me with the idea of a trip to Barambo, which is home to the rare orcsome screaming parrot and several tropical flavored molecules.

That I had never been able to study in this desert climate. It sounded like a truly great scientific expedition.

Yes, the two of us can make such discoveries together, I said, thinking already of the research papers we could generate just on the parasites that feed on the screaming parrot, let alone the never-before-mapped structure of the island-tastic-mangle molecule.

Okay, can we? He said, okay, sure, let's do that.

He seemed to take it back that I was bringing him in in the scientific process, but surprisingly excited about it.

The dueling palms was a first-class resort, a third-class supermarket, and judged by the standards of a cutting-edge medical research center, it was terrible, since it had a few laboratories or medical equipment, and mostly was made up of hotel rooms and swimming pools.
