About this listen

We are the Podcasters of the Apocalypse, a band of literary wayfarers and in My Internet Has Stopped Working we delve into the dusty corners of forgotten libraries unearthing lost treasures and arcane lore. Science fiction epics whispered of in forgotten tongues. Fantastical journeys hidden in the shadows of bestsellers. Forget the well-trodden paths of Arrakis, Pandora and The Matrix. We seek the undiscovered country in mysterious tales that will leave you muttering, "Why haven't I heard of this?"

  • MIHSW: Theological Implications of LeGuin's The Lathe of Heaven
    Oct 23 2025

  • MIHSW: The Breathing Method by Stephen King
    Nov 7 2025

    In Stephen King's “The Breathing Method” — A woman takes her Lamaze lessons very seriously, a doctor joins a secret storytelling club where reality occasionally forgets its boundaries, and somewhere between birth and death, the universe takes a deep, unsettling breath. In this chilly corner of Stephen King’s multiverse, manners matter, stories have rules, and persistence—especially maternal persistence—might just bend the laws of physics. It’s not It or The Shining; it’s quieter, stranger, and somehow colder. A tale for the long, gray November evenings when even your technology seems to stop breathing. Join the Podcasters of the Apocalypse as they dive into this under-appreciated 4th novella from King's Different Seasons. The same book that gave us The Shawshank Redemption and Stand by Me.

    In this episode, we dive into Ursula K. Le Guin’s The Lathe of Heaven — a haunting exploration of dreams that shape reality itself. What happens when one man’s subconscious can rewrite the world?

From surreal dreamscapes to philosophical paradoxes, this episode takes you through the blurred boundaries between imagination and control, waking life and illusion. Reality is shifting — are you awake enough to notice?
