While this week’s Night Vale recap had a lot of UFOs, shape-changing trees, and french fries, it also had a lot to say about life and loss and grief. So to switch gears we talked about some of the Oscar Nominated shorts, one of which is also about life and loss and grief. Right. So we pitched the recaps out the window and talked about Vampire Diaries instead, because if we’re going to talk about death we’d like there to be vampires, thank you.

This week’s outro music is a clip from Out of Time by Tryphème.
Correction: well, clarification really. We recorded this two weeks ago and didn’t realize it would post after the Oscars. So you’ll just have to trust us when we say we picked “Period. End of Sentence” as the best Documentary Short two weeks before it won.
When we talked about the Netflix movie End Game we mentioned a gentleman who’d lost his legs and an arm and now champions a cause to change how we look at death. His name is BJ Miller and his Ted Talk is here. It’s only 19 minutes, and you should check it out, it’ll make you feel better, honestly.
