About this listen

His bills are paid. That's all that matters.

He kisses his wife goodbye.

He drives past the place where he supposedly works.

He strips down in a derelict barn and presents the unholy gift.

The payment will be substantial.

Written in the vein of Rosemary's Baby and The Stepford Wives with a splash of Eldritch Horror, Breadwinner is a razor-sharp short about 1950s masculinity and the darkness underneath.
