Our first episode with a content warning! This week’s episode uses the unproduced X-Files script Crampton by Thomas Ligotti and Brandon Trenz as an entry point for a discussion on some very dark themes. Nothing too harsh, but we do feel it’s worth mentioning that if you’re not in a great headspace, maybe avoid Ligotti and our discussion of his work and ideas.
