Everybody gangsta till a character/theme reoccurs

[jayschertzberg]

A TREE WAS UPROOTED IN THE BACK GARDEN, I REPEAT, A TREE WAS UPROOTED IN THE BACK GARDEN

[fridaysantos]

Wait that's the same man from the construction and the priest that the nurse called to help him. How crazy

[debbiebishop]

Oh, you had me at "we'll get to the cannibalism, of course"

[thelivingparadox]

"thank you for meeting me. i am thankful that i was able to get a meeting with you. we'll get to the cannibalism"
respectfully what in the hell

[cawareyoudoin]

"When I die of old age" I haven't listened further, but just from the nature of his work and this statement (however ironic it may be), Jon, despite his sceptic assholery, is in fact an optimist.

[nanahuatli]

You know some really heavy shit is going to happen when you see it's a two-parter.

[sela]

"We'll get to the cannibalism of course" Welp that's how you start some small talk.

[anxiouscordyceps]

Ok, but the "and I see the builder had managed to uproot a tree?" is so hilarious to me for some reason. like I just imagine the priest being like ??? huh?

[dallydaydream]

"When I die of old age." Oh Jonathan, hope does spring eternal, doesn't it

[jaderush]

I was so proud of myself for finally spotting a connection between two episodes, and then they go on and straight up say "yup, they're connected". Oh well.

Also, the way he described heating up in that house reminded me of the episode with two burned men at the hospital.

[diesel_dawg]

Edwin: "We'll get to the cannibalism, of course..."
Me: "Of course. Wait...what?"

[eldritchlyJinxed]

As soon as he said 'Schizophrenia' i was like- 'OH'

[marymills]

"I am not for you. I am marked" dang!! that got me.

Interesting that both the priest and builder felt that burning sensation. I wonder if it's a typical possession trademark or the demon in the house specifically

[midnights]

The fact it has two parts makes you know it's going to be good.

THE BUILDER UPROOTING THE TREE!!! YES!! SO THE BUILDER HELPED THE PRIEST!

[kelly-alec]

15:22 "Possible Schizophrenia." ...WAIT A SECOND

This is the same Priest from #8 Burned Out, OH SH-

[Amelthon]

so the whole idea is that this audio is jonathan reading out edwin's written statement, yet he's unable to say "lord" and "jesus" and specifically says he's not able to "say" it, not write it. i know previous cases were written directly by the person making the statement, but i wonder if this one was a transcript of a spoken statement, if there's some Sinister Shit going on with jonathan, or if it was just an oopsie


loving the podcast

[venusthebenus]

My heart dropped when I realized that this was the other side of Burned Out. I was piecing it together but my brain didn’t fully process it until the tree fell. It gives me shivers all over my body man.

[crazyshaman]

Thet is the priest from chapter 8 - "Burn out"😶

[CrystalSkyDrops]

When you hear how these episodes can connect to one another and from different perspectives is so satisfying and mind blowing.
