A genius is dangerous enough, but when the genius is also a child?

Just shows how well we treat our vets returning from space. 

What do you do when you inadvertantly cause property damage? 

Final attack, or meteoric end of the world....?

When the army takes to the water, where has the navy left to patrol?

Weird genius.  Machines that can't exist...

Posting this just for shits and giggles...

A game of hot and cold where dimensions and perception are involved.

When someone takes your money and promises heaven, sometimes you end up taking it.

When is a dream a dream and when is a butterfly really a slime mold?

Not about a cat.  Watch out if you're arachniphobic.

If time and space travel were possible, where would the aliens go?  A cornfield?  or something fun....?

The consequences of a bad fall.

no intro - my father just passed away.

An invader kills your family - and even though you suspect, you can't act - why?

Sometimes people have to be cruel to be kind....

A glimpse of a dreamworld, a vision of the future, or something else entirely?

government trust doesn't go both ways.

(sorry about the rough intro - the smoke is killing my voice)

Things can be as plain on the nose on your face - but how often do you really LOOK at the nose on your face?

Beyond Pandora by Robert J. Martin
and
Two Timer by Frederic Brown

Life on another scale entirely.

A new player enters the game...

A taste of Christmas past!

the past comes to life!

Finally getting a bit caught up.

The end of the story of talking to an alien's brain....

Why do we assume only stationary computers - or even useful computers - would be the most likely to independently develop A.I.?

Almost done!

Kids don't know what WON'T work, so sometimes they get unexpected results.

halfway done.

An alien presence can be hard to understand, unless it really WANTS to be heard...

By Noel Loomis

In a world where money has been replaced by a daily point score, what is left to achieve?  Or at least to prove you achieved something at all?

Human - alien communication is trickier than expected...

Telepathy with aliens allows the best exploration.  But what if you miss something dangerous?

Tales of accidental invention....

When everything is replaceable, what makes a man?

Finally finishing off the missing two episodes of the unfinished story...

Part 7 is complete and with our Patreon supporters.  I will put it out here in a couple of weeks.

A tale of revenge...

A story told in an odd set of correspondence.

I'm... not sure what it's about, actually.

In a strange place, anyone can blend....

Short sharp and shocking. 

The oddity of Lovecraft's work - this is a silly melodrama, rather than a horror story, but still has an odd charm all its own....

Perception is 9/10ths of the law....

Escaping the holodeck isn't easy when a sociopath is running the show!

Long before Star Trek, the healing qualities of a feedback-loop holodeck were posited.  Except in the hands of a solipsistic narcissist, it might go very wrong.

[The last episode of classic 19 nocturne Boulevard, since this one doesn't appear on the "episodes" page of the website, it's easy to miss.  And it's definitely a lovely dark episode worthy of not missing.]

A woman's answering-machine tells a terrible tale of persecution.

Warning - triggers

Every experiment in the world cannot prevent the completely unexpected....

Might be happening now - all about protecting our children.

The final fate of the fickle clockworks!

Sometimes what you leave behind isn't as bad as what you run into when running away.

Picking up Hitchhikers can be dangerous, even in the far future....

Lem and Fanshaw find themselves in an inexplicable place and time.... (don't worry, it's not canon)

Jane and Annie have other tasks, and Gerald must still carry off the villain.

An actor teaches an alien to play the role of his life - himself.

Jane and Annie find what's back stage at the clockwork exhibit, while Gerald and the police may have an idea who's behind everything.

What if an alien who wanted to blend in and scout our planet encountered an acting coach?

While writing a book on the superiority of humans to all other so-called intelligent life-forms, an explorer has a bit of a rude awakening.

Jane and Annie try and explain things.

It's a long trek to find life in the galaxy - a nine-year voyage with limited interaction...

Two short stories, one about robot sales and one about being lost in time.

Investigating the scene of the crime....

My confusion at the beginning of the month - the RSS feed was supposed to get episode 3, not 4. 

too much cold medication.

When we forget what it does, we can still use technology for something....

While Gerald decides to meddle in police business, Jane and Annie take the back way in.

And so it plays out - weakness on both sides, and nothing realistic.

What might women do if they got any sort of control over men?  Treat men the way women have been treated - as sex toys and bartering chips, valued fro nothing but their appearance?  Or even less?

Jane has company, Gerald examines one...

Another take on a possible future....

Gerald seeks excitement, Jane finds a mess on her doorstep...

Many thanks to everyone who's come to the livestream where this is being put together.  Every evening 6-7 PST, twitch.tv/crazyauntjulie

You know what they say - beware earthmen bearing anything.

An alien's-eye view of a weird ass annoying world.

What happened that night?  and why doesn't Mark remember?

Betting on the future is a sucker's game.

Some words sound similar and mean very different things - but that doesn't mean they can't work out.

What could it mean when a body is hanging there in public and no one but you seems to notice?

You'll never guess what the rats are.  SMH

You know what they say about non-Euclidian angles....

A heart-warming tale of a man and his rat.

When it absolutely, positively MUST get there on time.... even decades later.

Why is the psychic running?  Why are the "agents" chasing?

The final revelation - what was so horrible?

The descent into the ancient metropolis.

Time travel can make things easier - or much harder.  Depends on which way you go, and how much it takes out of you.

The Australian desert hides horrible things....

In show business, they say never work with kids or animals - but what about monsters?

Not a movie yoou'd think I'd want to talk about, a heartwarming tale of a minnesota childhood in the 40s....

Few minutes after friday, but I fell asleep in my office chair after the livestream - been getting so many things done, i just passed out when I relaxed. My feet re so cold, I need a carpet under my desk.

our hero finds a reason to leave, but cannot get anyone else to vacate.

When shipwrecked, some dream of rescue, while others plan for the worst.

Finally episode 1 comes to the RSS feed! 

DON'T FORGET - the more people support us on our Patreon page (www.patreon.com/19nocturne), the faster episodes will come out! 

PLUS, Patreon supporters get episodes 1-2 months sooner than regular subscribers, since it's their donations that allow me to make the time to do audio drama again.

Continued.  Sorry no time to wax eloquent tonight.

A visitor's look at a post-nuclear New York.  

Some things never change.

With the Branagh version in the theaters, I compare the adaptations a bit, as well as the Poirots.

No intro.  Life is still crazy.

A follow up to last month's bitching about Evil Within 1.  EW2 is MUCH better!!

Peasley has disturbing dreams - almost like memories - of unimagineable places.

Everyone knows statistics lie. But it helps a lot if you get correct numbers to begin with.

A tale of a census that goes horribly wrong.

A man revives from a strange amnesia to find years have passed - and he needs to know what he's done all that time and why.

Not what you'd expect - a couple of kids cook up something unusual...

The Real Hard Sell by William W. Stuart, part 2

The conclusion of the story that asks what if the only job left to humans was sales?

If the only job left is sales - the only job for humans - who is left to sell to?
