Binary System Podcast #237: Welcome To Night Vale #175 “The October Monologues”

<p>Original broadcast date October 8, 2020. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2020/10/binary-system-podcast-237-welcome-to-night-vale-17-the-october-monologues/</p> <p>It's the third of Welcome To Night Vale's Monologue episodes (yes, third, not second, shame on us for forgetting The April Monologues in 2016). Once more we hear musings from Michelle Nguyen at Dark Owl Records, Steve Carlsberg, and The Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives In Your Home.</p> <p>The theme for our SitRep this week is mostly us going "OMG did you hear who ELSE has caught COVID-19?!" &nbsp;So we lightened the tone to talk about the other things we're watching and which we HIGHLY RECOMMEND (the "How To Drink" youtube channel, "The Good Place" Season 4, and of course "The Haunting" and the "Haunting of Hill House", because it's October and we've got to have the horror.)</p> <p>This week’s outro is Michelle Nguyen's current favorite song <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbCOAPR33ME">Karma Police</a> by Radiohead. Well, part of it anyway; Michelle thinks anything after the first 26 seconds of a song is just padding.</p> <p>The "How To Drink" youtube Pop Culture Playlist can be found <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLp0E61wf5A&amp;list=PL0Ve02cCRWLZGuFZ-giZmYlzRCgg_MTZo">here</a>. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLp0E61wf5A&amp;list=PL0Ve02cCRWLZGuFZ-giZmYlzRCgg_MTZo</p> <p>You can get the free "Your Hour" app on Google Play <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mindefy.phoneaddiction.mobilepe&amp;hl=en_US&amp;gl=US">here</a>. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mindefy.phoneaddiction.mobilepe&amp;hl=en_US&amp;gl=US</p> <p>Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?
