Show synopsis

These are the files sent to me by client 347.

After asking him to write what triggered his desire to seek help in therapy, he emailed me these recordings. Once you’ve had chance to listen to it all, I would be glad to hear what you make of it. It’s… unusual. You’ll probably want to go through it more than once, and, if I can make two recommendations: you’re going to want to listen from the start and pay attention; there’s not a single detail spared. And second: maybe don’t listen alone in the dark.

Sparks is a fictional horror podcast told in a late-night confessional style.

"What a tangled skien, and I mean that in the best possible way! The time-jumping feels a lot like Slaughterhouse 5, but on a much more personal level. It's brilliant—from concept to execution. Put this next in your listening queue." – Evo Terra
