    Unplugged episodes are where we ditch all the fancy production and story elements and bring you the raw (or slightly edited) interviews with folklore experts. On today’s episode, Mason & Perry got to speak with Andrew Peck. This was a very special interview for us because it ties all the way back to the ending lines of season 1 episode 1. If it’s been a while since you’ve listened to that episode, you may have forgotten that we ended with a quote from Andrew’s paper: Tall, Dark, and Loathsome: The Emergence of a Legend Cycle in the Digital Age. And that was the perfect way to move into the rest of the season. After that episode, Andrew was kind enough to reach out to us with some very encouraging words. That validation, right after our first episode, was incredibly encouraging. So it was an honor to be able to bring Andrew on the show in episode 7 of Season 2. … and he blew us away with his acting and how “all in” he was in the role we wrote for him. If you haven’t yet listened to that episode, you’ll want to add it to your list. Ok, let’s get unplugged… Guest: Dr. Andrew Peck (University Profile) Additional Resources (Books are Amazon Associates Links to help support the show) Digital Legend and Belief: The Slender Man, Folklore, and the Media, by Andrew Peck Folklore and Social Media, edited by Andrew Peck and Trevor J.

    Perry & Mason catch up after the production of Season Two! Alas, Perry's audio track suffered some stuttering - but the gang reconvenes to debrief after a chaotic and wonderful adventure. Things we mentioned: How chaotically this episode came together, and we hint vaguely about a bunch of really cool stuff we almost did - and will be doing in the future. Some insight into details of the season's production, sound design, writing, etc. Mason brings up the "Dead Internet Theory" which he didn't clarify is a conspiracy theory, but at the heart of it is an idea that he felt compelling - that the noise of AI-generated content drives us farther apart online and into less accessible spaces. Some of our discord members share their favorite examples of liminal spaces! Somebody asked us if Gen Z was gonna be alright. Episode editing help by Matt Bliss of MBPod.

    No-Clipping Reality (Liminal Spaces & Possibility) Out of the frying pan, and into the... backrooms, I guess? Welcome to the final episode of Digital Folklore's second season! We hope you've enjoyed the ride so far. Perry and Mason wander through endless, yellow, dank, decrepit hallways. Will they find Digby? Will Todd find them? What's going on? Where do we go from here? I don't know, I just write the shownotes. Speaking of writing the shownotes - Hey, if you're reading this - please join our Discord! Genuinely, it's a really rewarding place full of great folks - and we feel strongly about building a supportive community around our shared nerdiness. There's plenty of room for you! In This Episode: Voices from our discord community! The return of the famous Carterhaugh Twins*! Uncomfortably wet sound design (Mason says "you're welcome") Why transitions, waiting time, and all those other pockets of not-quite-doing-something-time are important. Rituals, fairytales, creepiness, light hearted joy, and so much more. *they're not actually twins, Daisy just got us saying that lol Guests: Dr Brittany Warman & Dr Sara Cleto: Founders of the Carterhaugh School of Folklore & The Fantastic! They're incredible, and you should check out their work! Featuring voice acting from: Hannah Wright of Inn Between* as NEWSCASTER 2 Brooke Jennett of THIRTEEN as Digby (and one of the newscasters!)

    Perry & Mason catch up after the production of the last episode! Things we mentioned: Perry & Mason discuss their most/least favorite emoji, their favorite contemporary legends, and their own embarrassing browser histories! Todd is real, and cursed Mason's editing computer. Mason reveals that he owns PregnantSonic.com, which points to the patreon page for the excellent audio drama podcast Inn Between (which Mason is a character on in the current season!) Perry retells an upsetting legend to Mason. Matt did some silly sound design in this one 👀 Listener messages and shout outs! Episode editing by Matt Bliss of MBPod.
