"She knows exactly what is beautiful because no one has yet told her she is wrong"

I hope somebody listened to this for the first time in a public place and said everything she told them to out loud to the confusion of the people around them

I like that they play with the thin line between safety and peril, distress and relaxation in everything they do. I'm addicted already. Love their work.

I love that if you assume that everything in Within the Wires and Alice Isn't Dead happens in the same universe as Night Vale, you can see a lot of cool links... Well done, Nightvale Team!

Monstro City they've actually confirmed that none of these stories overlap, and that there won't be any crossovers. i feel like it's safe to assume they take place separately from one another.

@@LunykStormdragon well it's fine , there doesn't have to be a big crossover , they could just take place in the same universe with the same rules , that could also have some cool advantages : you can have a cicumstance repeat itself in both series and show the difference and the similarities

...wow. It's disconcerting, esoteric, eerie, yet oddly comforting. Just how I like it. Hopefully stress vomit stains won't afflict you anymore.

Within the Wires seems to be just as weird and surreal as Night Vale and Alice. Maybe even more. I really like it.

Yes, I think so

her words, her pronunciation...cadence and tone...💖😍...enchanting...

THIS IS ANYTHING BUT RELAXING. Expertly done.

Omg, i paused right before she asked "are you where you were before" cause i had to let the cat out, and when i hit play, i freaked out a little

I actually followed along with the majority of the prompts in the audio and I feel surprisingly relaxed. It has been a very tense and stressful couple of days, and this has helped me to feel a bit better. So, thank you for that!

I followed it like a guided meditation. side be is maybe the most empathy for nature I've ever experienced.

What I understand from this story is that the person listening to this is in some mysterious institution and has to hear these cassettes. I am used to hearing Cecil's voice, but Janine is as creepy as him.

Now that I am caught up with Welcome to Night Vale I need to within to this, Alice isn't dead, and The Orbiting Circus. Also, after listening to this episode her voice reminds me of Cecil they are both so calm and relaxing that I just fall asleep.

I have a cassette player I would totally buy these on tape

Got recommended this by a friend. For a moment before it got all creepy I thought it was an actual relaxation tape! So glad I was wrong.

for a second I worried this would be normal

I'm getting some Portal/Portal 2 vibes from this

Really creepy but at the same totally relaxing oddly enough xD A very good combination of story and actual purpose of the cassette, it reinforces a lot the feeling of integration of the spectator to the story. Can't wait for the other tapes ! :)

I started listening to this when my mom was fighting cancer. My depression was spiraling, but the exercises here actually helped me a lot. I still listen to this episode to relax sometimes

Who else actually followed along to the prompts? I did! XD Not disappointed.

WIthin the Wires is wonderful and lovely, but I feel that a lot of my opinion on is based in previous experience and reference. For anyone who's experienced any of the Monroe Institute guided meditation pieces there's a strange dark satire from experience. Well performed, left mysterious enough for me to be interested in what makes this world tick.

This is really neat.. I thought after catching up on Night Vale and testing out Alice Isn't Dead (which I'm also hooked on) I'd eventually get worn out of these stories.. but goddamn these are all amazing. Thank you for all these great shows, I can't wait to see where they all end up! :3

that hurt me a little, I wonder where we are going this time.

this was oddly relaxing for me it helped me fall asleep and it actually lowered my stress oh my gosh good job guys

Oh, just finished season one in a podcast app and is now looking at the comments in KZread, don't mind me.... Anyways, the bug part was an odd mix of relaxing and disconcerting. Even when I was somewhat panicking in my mind at this child trapping me and and taking my wings, I was also relaxed.... Love this show

i find it really relaxing to follow along its awesome although every time they mention the institute i get confused because of fallout

Oh JFC this is ANYTHING but relaxing! O.O

looooove this

Oh my god I love this so so so so sO SO much!! It’s poetry, and it’s so beautiful

Think about Moist Yellow Cake!

I’m always late to these things. . .

I still somewhat expecting to hear Cecil after this and it is so confusing

The way the speaker confirms to the listener that they are being observed and need to speak expected responces aloud is so creepy. The shoulder thing and telling them that they arent supposed to miss or even acknowledge the loss of whatever it is they miss is just ugh. Its super blatant but also weirdly subtle?

Not really, when you're talking/ listening to people from Australia or Aotearoa New Zealand her accent is really very subtle. There are American (assuming you are, else substitute the country accordingly) accents/dialects way stronger than hers. That being said, of course you can and should be annoyed by whatever you like (or don't, I guess?) :)
