@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast #100 "Toast" (15-Dec-16).
This ep claims that all the guest voices who've being in the show up to now get used. The result is pretty worthwhile as an audio experience because of that even if some of the characters do make similar gags.

@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast #99 "Michigan" (01-Dec-16).
Nice to get some background on Karim who seems to be in a state of not dying for a radio intern.
I like how the travelling out with Night Vale tied into Novel
#1.
The silly pronunciation gags are quit funny TBF.

@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast #98 "Flight" (15-Nov-16).
I liked the drama over who died.
As expected they're now crying into their culturally empty souls over Trump getting elected. Maybe it'll mean this post-Buffy intellectually lost fluff will finally get some focus.

@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast #97 "Josefina" (01-Nov-16).
I'll be honest I barely remember Josefina from prior podcasts. Wasn't she in Novel #1? Anyway her story was fine and nice to get an actor organised for her but we're all just waiting for Hiram's execution now.

@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast #96 "Negotiations" (15-Oct-16).
I was really enjoying this ep until the gag that Night Vale is always getting destroyed every other month so it doesn't really matter. Nooo that's a terrible rookie creative decision Mr Fink & Mr Cranor.
@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast #95 "Zookeeper" (01-Oct-16).
Decent small self contained ep.
Again WTNV is better when Cecil can bounce off another actor.
WTNV is rewarding to listeners when there's a full ep developed from some throwaway line in an earlier ep.
@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Book #2 ""The Great Glowing Coils of the Universe: Welcome to Night Vale Episodes, Vol.2" (02-Sep-16).
Again more behind the scenes fare. I might get these books later but I don't like WTNV enough not to invoke my free skip rule.
@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast #94 "All Right" (15-Sep-16).
Finally WTNV gets interactive with the podcast listener. Good fun ep. Unless you are Wayne Ferry I guess.
Saying that #QuietPlease Radio show was doing listener interactive drama 69 years before this.
@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast #93 "Big Sister" (02-Sep-16).
The original files on YouTube are vastly more satisfing than the modern day adjusted files on Spotify.
Any ep that is Hiram related is gold.
Was Karim in many other prior eps? He is fairly unmemorable.
@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast #92 "If He Had Lived" (15-Aug-16).
More US President porn, it is clearly pre-2017 so.
@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast 91 cont'd.
This ep had potential but didn't end at all memorablty. I cant even remember how it ended. A bugbear of this show.
As it's the start of Year 5 maybe it was setting up the train for later use. Come on Fink do a #MysteriousTraveler crossover I dare you.
@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast #91 "The 12:37" (01-Aug-16).
Was there a first Donor Bonus ep Jul-16 in the month off? Podcast #90 said there would be but I have conflicting dates of Jul-16 & Jul-18 for Bonus ep #1 "Holiday". It seems to be set 2018 so I skipped it till then.

@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast #90 "Who's A Good Boy [2]" (15-Jun-16).
Why I clash with WTNV is that it cannot nail down plot. Yes its unreliable narrator allows me to forgive so much. But that weakess is a strength here as about 8 possible ways the day was won were offered.

@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Podcast #89 "Who's A Good Boy [1]" (01-Jun-16).
This appeaes to be wrapping up or further developing the ongoing dog story.
I like the passage of time before the ep began, Cecil's voice acting and that we even got an actual cliffhanger!
@bernardjkd.bsky.social#WelcomeToNightVale Bonus 6 cont'd.
Again these live shows are so much better than the regular podcasts. The main story of the Murder Mystery was a bit quick and unmemorable. However the 10 Bonus tracks afterward were better fare and really might have been sprinkled throughout the main story.
