I loved this episode. This past holiday (American Thanksgiving) I was visiting my mother who has Stage 4 cancer and read the entire 6 Volumes of Nailbiter based on your recommendation. I loved it. I read (and write) horror for the reason Stephen King writes, “We make up horrors to help us cope with the real ones”. So while she lay in bed and I listened to the sound of her breathing and kept her company, I read a horror outside of my own current experience on my Kindle in order to cope.
Keep up the great work on the podcast!
