Rish Outcast 319: New Year's 2026 Show

 

Rish talks about his family Christmas party and whether his table or his sister's table won the Best Table vote.

Podcast That Dares 65: The Birds

 Happy Halloween, kids!  What, it's not Halloween where you are?



For an extra-long treat (rather than a trick), Rish presents Daphne du Maurier's 1952 story "The Birds," about an English village beset by flocks of avian killers almost as sick of humanity as you are. Apparently, they once made a film of it.

Note: This very nearly was split into two episodes, and only the promise of the greatest holiday of the year kept them stuck together.

Note 2: You're welcome.

Rish Outcast 318: The Last Christmas

 

For the holiday episode this year, Rish presents his story "The Last Christmas."  Jason finds a box on his doorstep, presumably a present for him . . . but it's one that will change everything.  Enjoy?

Note: we'll postpone Episode 317 to next time.

Rish Outcast 316: Door Number Three 2

 

 ...and the story continues. Here I present the 2025 portion of the story "Door Number Three," written after considering the original ending unsatisfying/unsatisfactory.

Afterward, I'm including the original second half of the first episode, where I talk about what I would do differently if I wrote the tale now (ultimately redundant, since I went ahead and did it). Sorry(ish).

Rish Outcast 315: Door Number Three 1

 

Rish shares a story from many years ago about a babysitter that discovers a new door in the hallway. It was meant to be a single episode, way back in March or April . . . but then it mutated.

Just like your sister-in-law.
