After calling a customer support line for his broken streaming box, Evan is horrified when the voice on the other end begins using an unnervingly cheerful tone to reveal private memories, predict his immediate future, and ultimately prove she knows more about his life than he does.

Tales From The Blue Line: Every morning at three, Mason and Ally ride the Blue Line into downtown Chicago together. The train brings out its own brand of weird, which has led to Mason and Ally trading spooky stories to help their commute pass a little faster.

A few weeks ago, on our classic sci-fi series we shared the story “The Outer Limit” by Graham Doar. It was originally published in The Saturday Evening Post in December of 1949, but I originally heard it on an episode of the 1950’s radio drama X Minus One. I mentioned in the episode that Darren and I were unable to find a copy of the original story, so we actually adapted the original radio drama script into a short story version.

Here's our version from the September 25th episode: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4IlfSzOLj4RZw9patUvE7x?si=f1f4d5c593b04e46

I thought it would be fun to share the original X Minus One episode. It aired on November 16th 1955. And if you’d like to hear more audio drama versions of the short stories we’ve shared here on Auditory Anthology, we’ll have a poll on our Substack, so let us know if you like this sort of brief diversion from our normal short story content

Crouching on an alien desert, a man must quickly identify a sixty-foot-tall, seemingly indestructible monster that appeared from nowhere after it kills two of his crew, only to realize the terrifying creature is not a product of alien evolution but a powerful, localized psychological weapon.
