I just wanted to be one of the many voices that say that they love the podcast. I overheard some people at NYCC talking about it, and just today I finally caught up with listening to the archives. Now I'm scared and confused and kicking myself for not finding out about this sooner.

I'm oddly okay with this.

On the subject of fanart, I've noticed one small detail that I like. Not also does everyone have their own mental image of the characters, but everyone draws the trophy Cecil got for Carlos different, too. :allears:

"There better be fanart of this episode by the time I get home."





I was not disappointed.

Any plans to update the mug now that Night Value Community Radio has a logo? Also, if you're thinking plans for the future, I think a non-limited shirt that just has the NVCR logo on the breast would be nice to keep in store.

And on an unrelated note, I have stumbled across a model/actor who is basically an exact match of my image of Carlos: Luciano Szafir.

I've been hoping for a simplified logo shirt, too. Maybe on a grey or purple shirt. :shobon:

They've actually never been released at midnight, people always just assume they are and then get mad when we release them later as we always do.

(There's no specific time, but usually around 2-5am EST).

Good to know! I guess I can actually go to bed at a reasonable time instead of staying up late!

I might still stay up

I just want to know what happened to Tamika

So, Night Vale made the AV Club's top podcasts of 2013 list. Not especially notable in and of itself, but I think it's interesting how fan-art-y the version of Cecil they use in their header is:


Aww, he's got a little pet Glow Cloud! :3:

Between this and the Glow Cloud, I like to think that Cecil's mind is more or less a revolving door. Maybe as a side effect from whatever happened in cassettes?

I listened to the first half of Condos while I was driving around with my seven year old niece last weekend. At first I thought she wasn't paying attention until she randomly announced that she thought Carlos looked like Bruno Mars. :allears:

She also kept talking back to Cecil during the traffic, it was adorable. "I can see the road, Cecil! Yes! I can see the lake!" :3:

I guess I'm a dumb tumblr fangirl, because Cecil and Carlos' relationship is one of my favorite parts of the show. It's just so adorably normal (and healthy!) :3: And a nice foil to all of the crazy poo poo going down in Night Vale.

I can't decide whether or not I like knowing that Cecil has a legitimate reason to dislike Steve Carlsberg. But that's probably because one of my all-time favorite moments is his first mention, which was the first time Cecil really dropped his "friendly radio announcer" persona to just tear into Steve for tiny, petty reasons.

I was driving a tan Corolla at the time so maybe I just sympathized with ol' Steve Carlsberg.


I thought the same thing, till I realized that I treat a certain relation that I can't stand the same way Cecil treads Steve. Right down to the nitpicking and petty grumbling. It helps that the relative I don't like is also a dead beat Dad, so there you go.

I had assumed from the end of the episode that the whole "Niece" thing was a lie and it's just Cecil funding the rebellion against Strex Corp using it as a front. Plus it could also be a ruse to get station management to buy / consume something as some sort of ruse. Thus his attacking Steve Carlsberg was incidental because gently caress that guy.

This is my theory too, though I think Janice (Janis?) is real. Cecil is always very emotional when it comes to his loved ones. The fact that he didn't sound upset at all after the weather makes me believe this was all a set up. He gets to help fund Tamika's army and maybe even lure a Strex into a trap.

On the subject of last episode spoilers, I love Steve being his brother-in-law for the same reason I love his relationship with Carlos: it's normal. In a town with five headed dragons and hooded figures I love the small touches of reality that peek through.

Also it pissed of the fangirls that think Steve is Cecil's ex, so that's good.

She hasn't been seen since Yellow Helicopters and hasn't been mentioned since. Either Strex took her away or killed her. I don't think Cecil knows.

I noticed something.

In one of the earlier episodes, the vagrant living in a closet in the earth sciences building at Night Vale Community College (whose name escapes me) mentioned that this isn't the real world, and the real world ended about thirty years ago.

The last correspondence from Nyulgorsk, the Russian town in Deft Bowman, before it was apparently obliterated in a nuclear holocaust and trapped in time, was... in 1984.

30 years ago.


Simone Rigadeau? The one with the pet cans?

And good catch. :stare:
