Tonight, we return to that lair of unnatural, unsupervised, and decidedly un-corporate science: the Montgomery Moro Museum and Memorial House, as we join the Doctors and Andrew Snidge as they welcome Cassie in for that most dangerous of gatherings: a home-cooked meal with the family.

Hi there!  Producer Jeffrey here. We’re really excited to share an episode from the show we made directly after Our Fair City- Unwell, a Midwestern Gothic Mystery. It’s a very different show- it’s a gothic story set in rural Ohio, centering around a smaller cast of characters- but we think if you like Our Fair City, you’ll really love Unwell.  You’ll also hear a bunch of familiar voices and hear the work of some of your favorite folks who worked on Our Fair City, along with some brand new folks!

Unwell is also a complete show- you can head over to that feed and hear five complete seasons of the show.  

Thanks so much for listening, and we hope you enjoy!
