I'm writing this from the frozen tundra known as Oklahoma, where I'm visiting some family for the Feast! A Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate. A somber National Day of Mourning to those in the States who recognize the alternate name and intent. And happy Thursday to everyone else. Except those of you who opened this on the other side of the International Date Line. Happy Friday to you. And now I'm confusing myself. Oh, my 10-year old niece, Sadie, assembled the cover image. Didn't she do a great job?`
Speaking of giving thanks, I need to give a huge thanks to my latest Individual Supporters, Kier Zhou and Joanne Phillips! They both heard my plea for assistance last week and responded in kind. Many thanks, Kier and Joanne. Your support will help keep things rolling right along here at The End HQ. For the rest of you lot who haven't yet chipped in your $24.99 for an entire year—now's a good time to become an Individual Supporter of The End. Please?
Oh, and we're like 10 people away from reaching 1,900 subscribers, which is hella cool. Do me a favor and forward this to someone you know who should also be subscribed?
Plenty of shows to cover this week, and I need seconds of this home cooking. Let's get into it, shall we?

Dark tales harvested from the mind of #1 New York Times bestselling author Scott Sigler. From major-release novels to podcast-exclusive content, these “slices from the Siglerverse” — each a full-length tale — will immerse you in his twisted, intertwining worlds of horror and scifi. But beware, for his work is so addictive his fans call themselves the “Junkies,” always trembling for their next fiction fix. The first hit is always free…
This compilation show lists several stories from Scott:
SLAY — If you want a person dead, you call a hitman. If you want a monster dead, you call Lincoln Franks. But you better be able to pay the price he asks because Lincoln gets that paper — pay to slay, bitches. SLAY is JOHN WICK meets BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, an urban fantasy/horror mashup featuring a drugged-out anti-hero and a hidden underworld of blood-magic and monster mayhem.
Blood Is Red — A collection of eight horror stories created by Scott Sigler. This collection features seven tales from Scott’s first six years of free audiobook podcasts.
Death Is Black — This collection draws on Scott’s darker side (and yeah, we know, he’s pretty dark already). Author notes after each story detail the inspiration behind the tale.
In this first of its kind feature-length audio movie, Wallace Conway wakes up to find he’s been implanted with an untraceable earpiece while sleeping. So long as he does everything the voice on the other end tells him, he and his family will live.
Written by Zack Akers and produced by Skip Bronkie, Shipworm is the fourth podcast from Two-Up, the studio known for breaking ground in fiction (Limetown), musical (36 Questions), and documentary podcasts (The Wilderness).
Shipworm stars Broadway luminaries Quentin Earl Darrington and Miriam Silverman, and is available on podcast platforms everywhere.
