PODCAST EPISODE SUMMARY
"Verminous" by Micah Edwards — An aging man living in the quiet countryside notices strange patches of darkness silently crossing the stars, dismissing them as little more than an odd curiosity. Days later, an inexplicable contamination begins transforming entire communities into fearful, violent versions of themselves, while he and a handful of others struggle to understand what's happening before civilization unravels completely. A masterfully restrained work of cosmic horror, Verminous reminds us that the universe doesn't have to hate humanity to erase it—it merely has to stop noticing we're there.
