Transcript

Hey, y'all, it is Jeffrey Kraner speaking to you from the year 2025.

And did you know that Welcome to Night Vale is back out on tour?

We are.

We're gonna be up in the northeast in the Boston, New York City area, going all the way over to the upper Midwest in Minnesota.

That's in July.

You kind of draw a line through there and you'll kind of see the towns we'll be hitting.

We'll also be doing Philly down to Florida in September.

And we'll be going from Austin all the way up through the middle of the country into Toronto, Canada in October.

And then we'll be doing the west coast plus the southwest plus Colorado in January of 2026.

You can find all of the show dates at welcome to nightvale.com/slash live.

Listen, this brand new live show is so much fun.

It is called Murder Night in Blood Forest, and it stars Cecil Baldwin, of course, Symphony Sanders, me, and live original music by Disparition, and who knows what other special guests may come along for the ride.

These tours are always so much fun, and they are for you, the Die Hard fan, and you, the Night Vale new kid alike.

So, feel comfortable bringing your family, your partner, your co-workers, your cat, whatever.

They don't gotta know what a night veil is to like the show.

Tickets to all of these live shows are on sale now at welcometonightvelle.com/slash live.

Don't let time slip away and miss us when we are in your town because otherwise we will all be sad.

Get your tickets to our live US plus Toronto tours right now at welcometonightveld.com/slash live.

And hey, see you soon.

Summer is turning to fall, which frankly, rude of summer to do.

But don't worry, Quince is here with fall staples that will last for many falls to come.

We're talking cashmere, denim.

This is quality that holds up at a price that you frankly just won't believe.

We're talking super soft, 100% Mongolian cashmere sweaters, which sounds like the kind of item that you need a credit check to even imagine, and it starts at just $60.

Plus, Quince partners directly with Ethical Factories, so you get top-tier top-tier fabrics and craftsmanship at half the price.

I got an adorable dress for my daughter, which she helped pick out.

She wore it at her first day of school.

She loves that dress.

It has pockets, if you know, you know.

I also got myself a mulberry silk sleeping mask, and every night since has been a luxury, I have never gotten better sleep than with mulberry silk draped upon my eyes.

Experience what it must be like to be wealthy without having to, you know, have a bank account that doesn't make you wince when you check it.

Keep it classic and cool this fall with long-lasting staples from Quince.

And hey, thanks.

All dogs go to 11.

Welcome to Night Vale.

We're back to normal, Night Vale.

Science is legal.

Dr.

Janet Lubell is gone.

Well,

not gone, she's still here.

Physically, anyway, under a cow that fell from the sky.

Yeah, it's been six weeks since that happened, and no one's cleaned up the mess yet.

But, you know, to be fair, I'd rather have a pile of flesh on the outskirts of town than street cleaners.

Geez, Dr.

Lupelle, couldn't you have explained those monsters away?

But it's a net positive, listeners.

Science is back, and so are we.

Ecstatic citizens are running through the streets, solving Fairmat's last theorem, peer-reviewing every flower, and donning their hottest summer lab coats by the pool.

And of course, since it's summer, we're all eager to go on vacation.

You know, get away to exotic destinations.

And no one understands that excitement more than the friendly folks in the Air Travel Industrial Complex.

Which brings us to today's big news.

The Randy Newman Memorial Nightvale Airport finished construction on a new terminal featuring international flights to nearly anywhere in the world.

Belize, Senegal, Switz, Vietnam, Ireland.

Ireland?

Sorry.

I think that's supposed to say Iceland.

I must have missed a typo there.

I've never heard of an Ireland.

Who'd want to go there?

That place sounds mean.

Anyway, the point is that this is our time to see the planet, soak up the sun in Sydney, drink a Mai Tai in Mali, play the ponies in Poland, and Franche Kiss in Francia.

The new terminal will feature executive lounges, a food court, daily pickleball tournaments, tarot readers, and a 24-hour sensory exploration chamber.

So let's enjoy ourselves, wherever our travels take us this summer.

But first, a word from our sponsors.

How many ants are there?

You've never really thought about that, have you?

Or you've thought about it, but you didn't really pursue the matter further.

To you, how many ants is nothing more than a hypothetical to ponder with friends late into the night.

Definitely more ants than humans, one of your friends said.

And you all agreed like this was a good point, but you knew it to be a point so obvious as to be perfectly meaningless.

So, how many ants are there?

Have you googled it?

Or tried counting a small sample, say your front lawn, and then multiplied it out to the relative area of the Earth?

Have you considered whether or not there are sea ants?

I bet you didn't think of that.

Back to the calculator, Poindexter.

Now, you're not a lazy person.

Not generally, no.

You're definitely a good person, a productive person.

You can tell just by looking at yourself, can't you?

But when it comes to certain tasks, you cut corners.

You put them off, or you go beyond the limits of procrastination and don't do it at all.

I mean, we can hear you right now typing out the question, how

many ants into your preferred search engine.

Stop, just stop, it's too late for that.

Someone already figured it out.

20 quadrillion.

You could have helped in this project, but you didn't.

Maybe you should do something about this condition of yours that prevents you from helping people count ants.

Now, There's Chaxladrill.

Chaxladrill may cause nausea, spooning, or a new metal revival.

Stop taking Chaxladrill if you can no longer see birds.

Chaxladrill is far less afraid of you than you are of it, and those are the benefits.

You don't want to hear the side effects.

It's got nothing to do with ants, but I will say it's still in the arthropod phylum.

Ask your doctor why.

Ask your doctor what he's doing with that hook.

Ask your doctor while you can still move your lips.

Chaxladrill.

You had your chance.

Now hold still.

Back to our top story.

Nightvale TSA Representative Martin McCaffrey has just held a press conference calling for air travelers to plan for long lines at airport security.

McCaffrey asked for patience as they're still working through some kinks at the new terminal.

Not all of the computers are networked properly.

Plus, they're a bit understaffed.

And, most importantly, they all forgot the new terminal was opening today.

We had it on our calendars for August 8th, every single TSA staff member said.

Totally our fault.

We think we just had a case of the sausage fingers when we went to put it into our calendar apps, and then we all just pressed the 8 instead of the first.

So we just slept in thinking we didn't have work today, but

our bad.

McCaffrey also reminded travelers that security checkpoints require you to remove all liquids and gels from your carry-ons, place all laptops, tablets, and other electronics into separate bins, and to remove your shoes, belt, wallet, and any partially chewed meat you may have on your person before advancing through the screeners.

For frequent airline passengers, you can also make use of the TSA pre-check program, wherein a microchip is planted in your skull, and you are prevented from ever committing any kind of criminal or terroristic activity on an airplane.

And thus you're a null risk, and you can bring knives, guns, tarantulas, whatever on board your flight.

Because you now belong to the state.

You couldn't be bad if you tried.

Finally, McCaffrey said the new terminal was built atop a fallout bunker for the world's wealthiest elite.

So while you're waiting in the security line, you'll need to keep clear of all trapdoors so that the billionaires can climb out and use the bathroom or get a Shakeshack burger.

And now a public service announcement from the Nightville SPCA.

It's one hot summer.

So remember that a parked car is no place to leave your dog alone.

Too often we tell ourselves, I'll only be away from my vehicle for mere moments.

Nothing can go wrong.

Or maybe you think it'll help to crack your window to keep your four-legged friend cool.

This is dangerous thinking, Nightvale.

Dangerous.

Did you know that within only five minutes, your car could be stolen?

Criminals are getting smarter and quicker at hot wiring automobiles, and your dog is one of those criminals.

Your dog.

Bandit, a blue healer terrier mix that you rescued from our downtown shelter two years ago, was imprisoned for a reason.

We named her Bandit for that same reason, but you just thought it was cute because she had like a little black stripe across her eyes.

Oh, like a bandit, you said and smiled.

But you got it all wrong.

If we were being cute about the black stripe across the dog's eyes, we would have named her Rocket Raccoon or Zorro or something adorable.

We named her Bandit because she's a car thief.

Looking back, we should have been more communicative about Bandit's rap sheet, but we were just so shocked that you would adopt such a malicious felon.

Do you know she ran a chop shop at Five Points in Queens from 1988 to 2002?

After a federal sting and 12 years in Rikers, she got back to her crime ring.

Only New York was too hot.

Hotter than a desert summer.

So Bandit moved west to Nightvale, where she established a whole new syndicate until she was caught by the SPCA in September 2020.

And we had her safely locked away until you showed up.

You,

who was so fixated on the idea of getting a new pooch.

But that had been only five months since Moxie died?

You've already moved on, huh?

Okay, fine.

Fine.

We all grieve in our own ways, but who knew that grief would lead you to adopting one of the FBI's most wanted criminals of the 1990s?

Apparently, you did.

So, yeah, don't leave that dog alone in your parked car in a hot summer day or a cool autumn morning.

Don't let that dog out of your sight at all.

She's a bad dog.

A very, very, very bad dog.

No.

This has been a message from the Knale SPCA.

We're getting word that the security line at the new Knightville Airport Terminal isn't moving at all.

And for those who managed to get through the lines, they've been waiting hours for their planes, but nothing.

The terminal is packed shoulder to shoulder with anxious and frustrated passengers and not an airplane in sight.

This situation led to a statement from Knightville Airport CEO Archie Lavery.

Lavery says, oh dang.

So yeah, wow, wow, yeah.

So I did not book any airlines into this new terminal.

I didn't know you were supposed to do that, Lavery said.

I kind of assumed that building an airport terminal was like buying a bird feeder.

You just put one up and they come to you, but apparently, Lavery continued, it's more like a business thing where you contract out the slots to different airlines, and they basically pay for usage of the facilities and staff.

Lavery said he was totally embarrassed and more than willing to make it up to all stranded travelers.

He announced that he has chartered dozens of buses to drive people to their vacation destinations.

Las Vegas?

No problem, just a few hours away, he said.

Seattle?

Ah,

sure, okay.

Prince Edward Island?

Woof, okay, that's a toughie.

American Samoa?

Um, I'm gonna need to check my GPS on that one.

And on and on he went, trying to sort out bus availabilities, not to mention capacities for every single passenger.

More on this soon.

But since it's legal to do it again, let's bring back the children's fun fact Science Corner.

Today's an interactive one, kids.

We're going to make slime!

Ew!

Ewy gooey slime that you can squish between your fingers or pour on your little sister's head while she's quietly doing something else.

Slime's the best, and it's super easy.

The first thing you'll need to do is wait till your parents are out of the house.

The most basic tenet of science is no parents allowed.

Do you think Albert Einstein invented the speed of light with his mom and dad around?

No, because Albert Einstein was cool and also married his first cousin, but we're not going to talk about that right now.

So once your parents are gone, you'll need to grab a large bowl and any leafy vegetables you can find.

Just dig through the fridge.

If anyone asks later what happened to the watercress, just tell them, you made yourself a salad and they'll be very proud of you.

I'm proud of you, child, they'll say, and you will, for the rest of your life, subconsciously subconsciously seek this feedback from your parents long after they're gone, even because our brains are terrible, terrible places that don't ever really get over our early childhood.

So now that you have the leafy greens, place them in a bowl and cover with a damp towel.

Set the bowl in a warm, humid, dark

place.

Wait about two weeks and you will have a maroonish black slime that you can throw at walls or make shapes with or put on your face to stay looking younger.

Whatever you kids do with slime, it doesn't matter.

Nothing does.

This has been the Children's Fun Fact Science Corner.

The security line at the new airport terminal is now flowing out of the front door of the building.

Annoyed passengers are demanding to be taken to their beach destinations, their families' homes, their big city cultural getaways, yet no no planes have even arrived at the gates.

Inside the terminal, people are shouting at TSA agents.

They're toppling over kiosks of phone accessories.

They're smashing snow globes in the gift shops.

And they're refusing to purchase a single copy of Prince Harry's memoir.

It's utter chaos.

And that's not even taking into account the slowly growing shadow forming across the tarmac, the runways, and the parking garages.

The Glow Cloud has arrived, hoping to catch a flight back to California to finish their summer coursework at Stanford.

Upset at the long line, the Glow Cloud is thundering and pulsing with every color of the spectrum.

Skycaps are being blown sideways.

Half of the Hertz rental car fleet was sucked into an F4 tornado.

All stranded travelers have craned their heads up and begun to chant, All hail!

All

hail.

Airport CEO Archie Lavery has called for calm and patience, but unfortunately, what's happening right now is the weather.

There's a little star

in the path

in the dark.

I did not

see

it there.

I was much less

aware than

I am now that

I fell

to the ground.

Soft multi-sweetly dreaming, your feet are slowly bringing you

down the way that you know

by heart

Watch in the black

silence

Absence of faint environments all of the streets

are crying

asleep.

Above is where

the sky is.

The mirrors busy lion can't

find the time, and my shoes

won't come on.

You are slowly

sorry, and you must still

be snoring if

not you would

be home

by now.

But we're constant,

they walk in the same path

I have

been talking of

about

for

an hour

or a day

in the thicketing side

down go

we all

we must

send it

you know the secret U.S.

Air Force base up Route 800?

Not the one next to the Burger King, the one off exit four, next to the all-you-can-eat dessert buffet, which was like based on the design of the building you can clearly see used to be a circuit city.

That secret Air Force base?

You know, where they do the alien autopsies every Saturday for the tourists?

Anyway, they heard about the shortage of planes at the new terminal, and they helped out.

An unnamed representative from the secret Air Force base said, hey, we've got nothing else going on this week.

Happy to send over a few F-18s for people to fly around in.

So now the gates of the new terminal are filled with fighter jets.

Now, unfortunately, Each plane only carries two people, and that number includes a pilot.

But, as famed aviator Amelia Earhart once said, if you know more than one person,

that's too many people.

So these jets should do just fine.

The Air Force did provide a few stipulations for using their planes, though.

First, they don't have any pilots available, but they did include user manuals in each cockpit.

How hard can it be?

The Air Force representative said.

What's the worst that could happen?

Another restriction on the planes is that they need all of them back by Saturday afternoon.

No exceptions.

We have huge plans for those planes first thing Sunday morning, the Air Force representative said.

It's a secret, because we are a secret base after all, so I can't tell you what we need them for, but oh man, it's going to be rad.

The Air Force representative then paused for a long time.

a smile spreading slowly across his face.

He couldn't hold back anymore.

Okay, okay, fine, fine.

I'll give you a hint.

We're gonna make Spain the 51st state.

Don't tell anybody.

Oh man, I've said too much.

The representative then whispered something to one of his aides, and they both snickered so hard that milk came out of their noses.

So the skies over Nightvale are now filled with satisfied travelers zipping this way and that.

They're doing barrel rolls and loop-de-loops and kick flips and...

all the other cool tricks you do with a fighter jet.

It's difficult to say if they're doing these things intentionally or or not, but you know, hopefully, they all make it on time to their resorts, their hotels, their cabins in the woods, and their family homes.

It's the final few weeks of summer, and I think we all deserve a little break.

Stay tuned next for the shattering of the sound barrier, and probably your windows, too.

Good night, Nightvale.

Today's proverb: make him an offer he can't refuse.

Like a really good offer, he's a nice guy.

Hey, it's Jeffrey Kraner with a word from our sponsor.

You're on a desert island, but not a deserted island.

Someone else is there.

Something else is there.

In the water, surrounding you lurks a mythical beast with two large eyes and many long arms.

You're just now hearing of this beast, but you're not afraid because you don't plan to swim.

Though that water looks nice, you're good at talking yourself into things, and soon you are in the sea, frolicking and splashing.

You even squeal, thinking you're all alone.

But you forgot what I just said.

You're not alone.

Something wraps itself around you.

It lifts you high in the air, waving you about at dizzying heights.

You look down and see the mythical kraken.

You start to scream, but in its other tentacles are bottles of kraken black spiced rum and kraken gold spiced rum.

I love kraken rum, you say.

It's bold, smooth, and made with a blend of spices.

You high-five the beast as it sets you back down on the island, along with the bottles of kraken rum.

It winks and tells you kraken rum is ideal for Halloween cocktails and disappears back into the dark, briny depths.

Visit the official sponsor of Welcome to Night Vale, Kraken Rum.com to release the Kraken this Halloween.

Like the deepest sea, the Kraken should be treated with great respect and responsibility.

Like a really good offer, he's a nice guy.

Mike and Alyssa are always trying to outdo each other.

When Alyssa got a small water bottle, Mike showed up with a four-litre jug.

When Mike started gardening, Alyssa started beekeeping.

Oh, come on.

They called it truce for their holiday and used Expedia Trip Planner to collaborate on all the details of their trip.

Once there, Mike still did more laps around the pool.

Whatever.

You were made to outdo your holidays.

We were made to help organize the competition.

Expedia, made to travel.

I'm Amy Nicholson, the film critic for the LA Times.

And I'm Paul Scheer, an actor, writer, and director.

You might know me from the League Veep or my non-eligible for Academy Award role in Twisters.

We love movies and we come at them from different perspectives.

Yeah, like Amy thinks that, you know, Joe Pesci was miscast in Goodfellas, and I don't.

He's too old.

Let's not forget that Paul thinks that Dude 2 is is overrated.

It is.

Anyway, despite this, we come together to host Unschooled, a podcast where we talk about good movies, critical hits, fan favorites, must-season, and case you missed them.

We're talking Parasite the Home Alone, from Greece to the Dark Knight.

We've done deep dives on popcorn flicks, we've talked about why Independence Day deserves a second look, and we've talked about horror movies, some that you've never even heard of, like Kanja and Hess.

So, if you love movies like we do, come along on our cinematic adventure.

Listen to Unschooled wherever you get your podcasts.
