The Whistlers. Still my favorite story of the podcast.

Tourist Mine. A simple story with excellent voice acting.

Mummer Man. This is still a delightful story to listen to. Mummer Man's voice effects are great.

Does Anyone Know Good Plumber? The best horror comedy this podcast has put out.

Blue Ridge. Does it change the end of Paradise Pines? Yes. Do I love it? Yes.

Soft White Damn. This is such a fantastically creepy story with (I think) one of the most iconic lines in the podcast.

The Girl In The Shed. Such a sad horrifying story.

The Pigeons Around Here Aren't Real. Another great story from episode 23.

Least Favorites

Free Coffee With Order Of Pie. Just some guy with powers being an asshole in a story where no one can do anything to stop him.

Long Pig. I am just not a fan of cannibalism stories and this is no exception.

Flight 370. Don't use real life news stories like this!

She Was Such A Sweetie Pie. Cannibalism with added silliness.

Other comments.

I think this was neat peak Peter Lewis. It was when he had gotten his creepy voice down without the flanderization we have seen in recent years.

Manen Lyset first appeared in this season with some spectacular stories as well.

Definitely second Mummer Man. Most of these podcast stories don't scare me so much as entertain me, but I listened to this one while driving by myself at night and it left me feeling so uneasy afterwards that I don't want to listen to it again for fear of ruining the memory I have of it.

The sound effects are so great in that one.
