Binary System Podcast #279: WTNV #192 "It Doesn't Hold Up"

<p>Original broadcast date August 19, 2021. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2021/08/binary-system-podcast-279-wtnv-192-it-doesnt-hold-up/</p> <p>You know those dreams, the ones where you're watching a movie you really really love, except your favorite character is played by a different actor, and the plot has changed, and the soundtrack sounds like owls hissing and there's a strange figure glaring at you in the background of <em>every single shot</em>? Cecil experiences something like that in this week's episode of Welcome to Night Vale, except the owls sound like hydraulic lifts. And he's pretty sure the man in the background is his dad.</p> <p>There's no new Lore Olympus or Beastars this week, so it'll be a short episode because we'll only be discussing Welcome To Night Vale. And the weekly SitRep of course. And <em>Only Lovers Left Alive</em> since it showed up on Prime Video. And <em>Dead Man</em>. And <em>The Usual Suspects</em>. And <em>Witness for the Prosecution</em>. And <em>Breakfast at Tiffany's</em>. And <em>Cloud Atlas</em>. Okay, so maybe not that short.</p> <p>The outro music this week is a clip from <a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/maarten-schellekens/amarent-electronic-works/salt-lake-swerve" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Salt Lake Swerve</a><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/maarten-schellekens">,</a> by Maarten Schellekens.</p> <p>Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?
