Patreon Announcement!

Hey Zebulon, could we get some, uh, you know, getting people to subscribe to the Patreon music?

That's a wonderful idea, Casper.

About a year ago, some friends of mine and I launched Midnight Burger, an audio drama about a time-traveling, dimension-spanning diner.

We met Gloria, who had just lost her taqueria to the pandemic.

I saw the ad, and for some reason, a diner out in the middle of nowhere sounded like a good idea.

We met Leaf, the galactic drifter.

I was in a card game in Andromeda, which we all know is a shithole.

We met Ava, the rogue theoretical physicist.

Do you know what we called the zoologists back in school?

Poop lookers.

You want to know why?

Because they looked at a lot of poopers.

Because they looked at a lot of poop.

We met a sentient old-timey radio that somehow talks back to you.

Oh, look, a beautiful wooden horse they've given us as a gift.

Let us not look into it too much.

What could possibly go wrong?

And we met some guy named Casper.

Earth is the bar in Roadhouse before Patrick Swayze shows up.

There was never a dull moment at Midnight Burger.

They went to strange planets and were hunted by monsters.

Holy shit.

Really big monsters.

Zero irony.

They went to Harlan County, Kentucky, and survived an attack from the X.

Step back.

She might explode.

I obviously deserve better than you!

They narrowly escaped an alternate reality Earth where ads are mandatory.

Can you hide me somewhere?

This desperate plea is brought to you by Arby's.

Arbies, we have the meats.

They discovered a hidden dimension inside their deep freeze.

Holy

shit.

There's a pocket dimension in the deep freeze.

And they sailed into the dark heart of a supermassive black hole.

I have five theories about what awaits us inside the black hole.

Would you like to hear them?

I really wouldn't.

Over the course of 10 episodes, people started discovering us.

Posts started popping up on Reddit.

Then we were hitting the top 20 on Apple's charts.

Then the top 10.

And then, a few times, number one.

And then

The Guardian labeled us a must-listen endy podcast.

The response was overwhelming.

And now, as we go into season two, starting in November, we are asking for your help.

Midnight Burger will always be free to listen to, but it's not free to make.

And for as little as $2 a month, you can help us make Midnight Burger even better than before.

Just go to patreon.com slash midnight burger and you can get early access to shows, access to our behind-the-scenes podcast, Shift Notes.

This is where we listen to the show and I basically revisit all of my terrible editing choices.

And of course, our unending gratitude.

In our story, one day you're walking down the street and then suddenly there's a diner.

We started making Midnight Burger and then suddenly there was all of you.

We're hoping you can help us out at patreon.com/slash midnight burger.

And if time and tide roil you too harshly, or diurnal courses leave you with no safe havens, just remember: we're out there somewhere looking

at sick.

I've been through very long.
