Ladies and gentlemen, this is gearing up to be one heck of an election year. What does the Faceless Army's advance mean for the polls? Will the new owners/proprietors of the town put forward a candidate? Or will they follow the true patriotic method of funneling indescribably large sums of cash towards a candidate? Does Hiram McDaniels believe in a Smiling God? Can the faceless woman who lives in your house even believe in a smiling god, as she has no face and therefor cannot smile? Yes, it is shaping up to be one doozy of an election year, Night Vale. A real doozy.

And it's still pretty early in the election cycle, plenty of time for a dark horse candidate to come out of nowhere. Knowing Night Vale, they will literally arrive on Dark Horses, wreathed in flame and sadness.

This week's episode was amazing. The cliffhanger is killing me, and Hiram was great. Looks like we are going to see Cecil, Hiram, FOW, Kevin(?!!!) and some mysterious people at the Brooklyn show and I absolutely cannot wait. Also, about the t shirts? Are we going to have more opportunities to vote on reader submitted designs? Like second chances? Because I'm in love with the Angels one (like I'd wear it all of the time) and I will probably be heartbroken if it loses.

The show is a hell of a lot of fun and I can't wait to introduce it to more of my friends. ...which I'll do by meticulously explaining the entire SomethingAwful Forums history and then a brief sojourn into Bronies and Reddit culture with a quick sidetrack on how it's nothing to do with Animes, and then we'll head on back into why Homestuck is poo poo and every one of their fans is a nebbishy rear end in a top hat while the proud pure race of FOUNTAINEERS (Friends of Welcome to Night Vale) are the only fanbase worth joining. At this point, I'll take off my fedora, wipe my sweaty brow with the hem of my 3 wolf moon shirt and after a quick puff on my inhaler break into the FOUNTAINEERS song - one of my favorite pieces of fan-composed music ever made. (then i'll shoot myself right in the face)

Hi nightvale fans! In case anyone here lives in New York and wanted to catch the upcoming Night Vale show in Brooklyn on October 10th, I have an extra ticket I need to get rid of. I bought it for the early show with the intention of going with a friend, but he didn't get a ticket in time, so we both got tickets to the late show instead. If any goon wants to buy it off me, shoot me an email at my SA username at gmail- selling it for $30, which I think is about how much it cost in the first place.

These Transport for London posters look wonderfully Nightvalen: I think the reflection in it just caps it off. 'If you see anything suspicious, forget it. Forget what you've done.'

Cecil's impersonations of third person dialogue are consistently the funniest portions of the podcast for me. It's something you'd totally miss out on if you were reading instead of listening, and it's such a call back to those old radio dramas.

Action Yak Police posted:I love Larry's catchphrase. Maybe the reason it's always John Peters (you know, the farmer) is because everyone in his family is named John. So you have John Peters the plumber, baker, secret police officer (we don't talk about him though) and Night Vale has more farmers.

Official links for the LA Podfest Performance: one and two. Two episodes that have already aired a long time ago were performed. *Edit* Sounds like there is a bit of new material, in here, too, just got to it, it's good.

Is the man in a Tan Jacket supposed to be an angel? The thing about him having an E-name no one could remember made me think that that was the implication.

In my head cannon he is Beelzebub, the lord of flies. That is why he worked with that racist rear end in a top hat. He is protecting Night Vale for his own known reasons.

I like to think that he's just some friendly traveling fly salesman from out of town who's caught a bad case of amnesia field and doesn't get why everyone's making such a big fuss about him

Guys, he's just a traveling fly salesman! They're trained flies. They buzz the national anthem! They fly in delightful, intricate formations! They regard you with cold, insectile disdain as you scurry about your petty, ultimately meaningless lives! You guys are just paranoid.

I like the Beelzebub theory, considering the flies and such. However, he also makes mention that his home is the central point of the Nightvale Subway system, deep below the town, and he lobbies for the system to be reopened so he can return home. That would possibly ally him in some way with the strange deer-masked figures, which may or may not cockroach swarms assuming humanoid form.

I was re-listening to a bunch of episodes, and apparently he was first seen burning a refrigerator out in the desert. He may have originally climbed out of said refrigerator pre-tan-jacket, but I'm not sure if that has anything to do with anything.

That reminds me of Douglas Adams' The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul. In that book, there's a parallel universe where the gods live, and they're variously made real by belief and/or strong emotion. Near the end, the villain gets killed by a monster that comes out of a fridge - a god single-handedly manifested by one man's guilt. BiggerJ fucked around with this message at 12:08 on Oct 9, 2013 |

I'm still not convinced Everett (the Man in the Tan Jacket) is actually a good guy. While he may have helped save the town, maybe indirectly, he still is around and intentions are still unclear. I think we'll find out that Emmett is doing this all for his own dirty deeds.

And on top of that, Ernest is one of the last people to speak directly to both Pamela Winchell (Who is stepping down as mayor) and the Apache Tracker. What was his connection? Why, before any dedicated journalist could scribe their conversation down in blood and vellum, did both suddenly become unreachable? Is there a connection? Whatever it is, don't bog me down, son.
