It's me, back with more Wooden overcoats Muppet au.
Firstly, on the debate of "who is the human". I decided there should be three and a half.
The first one is, of course, Eric Chapman. My reasoning is that this real ass human man trying to people please muppets is very funny, AND ALSO, it'll further emphasize his disconnect from the people of Piffling Vale.
The second one is Georgie, for similar reasons to Eric, actually. She's also rather disconnected in a way from the community, and also, kind of an audience insert, making her a human just makes sense to me.
The third one is real human man David k Barnes playing doctor Edgware. Because it makes so much sense.
And finally, the half part, I think every episode should open and close with real life human woman Belinda Lang, wearing mouse ears, playing Madeline reading from her memoir on a rocking chair. Bonus points if, for the rest of the time, Madeline is not played by anything and is in fact, not on set, but everyone pretends she's there, talking directly to where Madeline should be.
Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

Podcast Elections: ACAB Edition
The introduction to this poll has been moved to the Voter's Guide (under the cut) due to length. Please ensure you are registered to vote in your local elections, should you be eligible.
*There is no lesser evil when the institution itself exists to exploit, oppress, and enact violence. I refuse to vote in this race, but I will vote in other races on the ballot.
Elections are coming up in the USA. I'm used to voting about twice a year, and understand how few measures and candidates are truly exciting to vote for. There's a lot of maintenance (renewing bonds and levies, voting against limitations to abortions, etc). Most candidates have significant flaws and even the ones who seem promising will probably fail to meet their campaign promises. It's boring but important. To me it seems that the dramatic races and measures are usually more threatening (so we vote against it) then promising (so we vote for it). City Council, County Chair, School Board, Water District, Library Board, and so on are all highly important, but candidates' platforms can be opaque, or there can genuinely be no good options. But if we want clean water, good education, freedom to read, an attempt at affordable housing, etc., then we need to care about these positions.
But then there's the elections that never feel good. The elections for who gets to lead the people we allow to murder with little consequence. The people in charge of institutions that I would rather be destroyed. Obviously there's the big one, but frankly due to the electoral college, the state I live in, and partisan races usually coming down to Party over Policy, voting in that election feels incredibly ineffective (but I do it anyways).
Another institution I don't like voting for is the County Sheriff, but at least my vote feels more influential here. As this is a nonpartisan position, this will be a runoff election. That means if no candidate gets greater than 50% of the vote we will hold another race between the top two candidates the following week.
#Bonus Poll#Welcome to Night Vale#The Magnus Archives#Hi Nay#The Penumbra Podcast#Wooden Overcoats#Hello From The Hallowoods#The Kingmaker Histories#Victoriocity#The Silt Verses#Greater Boston#Also if you think my rambling is unprofessional you should read some of the things that get into actual voter's guides.#It's fun when it isn't infuriating.#ACAB Election

this joke is so hilarious. The old reverend who is part of the baby boomer generation, but not a boomer, calling the much younger Rudyard boomer who very much embodies the spirit of the insult.
i dont think ive had such a visceral reaction to any ten seconds in audio drama like. ever
#according to the piffling vale brochure the rev was 62 in season 1#so yeah hes a baby boomer#one of the jokes that made me laugh out loud#Wooden Overcoats

finished listening to Wooden Overcoats :< i will never find a podcast i liked this mich again, they don't have Antigone
spoilers for the ending and more rambling about Antigone
AAAAAAAAAAA CHAPMAN YOU IDIOT YOU HAD SO MANY OCCASIONS TO ASK ANTIGONE OUT ON A DATE AND OF COURSE YOU CHOSE THE DAY OF YOUR DEPARTURE
my disappointment with these two is immeasurable, i sincerily hope they went on a date after the final episode because Antigone deserves everything. even if it's that idiot Chapman
at least Georgie is happy with her girlfriend and her helicopter, and Rudyard's archive is being appreciated by people of Piffling Vale
but being serious for a moment, i liked the ending a lot. Chapman, despite being the most successful funeral director in town, being terrible at grieving because he never stopped feeling guilty for his friend's death was not what i expected but i liked that part a lot. i loved Chapman proposing to find a different job and Funn's insisting he stayed at funeral house because they want the competition, amazing touch
ehh, time to move on and find a new podcast. any recommendations?

After an accident at Chapman's, Funn Funerals find themselves down an undertaker with mere days left of their temporary monopoly. Eric is, somehow, having a worse week than they are.
Chapman gains an uninvited houseguest; Antigone relives several experiences she'd rather not; Rudyard discovers he doesn't need a body to be a nuisance. A haunting has come to Piffling Vale, and no one wants to be there—least of all the ghost.
