Hotel Daydream

-Finding Pattersby is a hilarious, weirdo mystery about a disgraced ex-ghostwriter, who goes on the hunt for a famous missing thriller author from the 1990s. Also the ghostwriter is a liar. This show blends surreal elements, strange vibes and dark comedy to explore the nexus of art and commerce through the underworld that is the suspense thriller industry. -Original analog synth score by Erik Jourgensen of Sony’s “Tagged” and The Glow podcast. Ryan and Erik have created an original textured universe here with its own vibes, humor and hypnotic storytelling. Folks have called it “a master class in suspense," "legitimately funny," and that “there is nothing else like it.” Season 1 is happening right now so be sure to check it out on your favorite podcatcher. They’re even doing a promotion right now where if you sign up for the newsletter at patterspod.com before Feb 10, you’ll be entered in a drawing for a free t-shirt with the showlogo.

The hotel staff are on a break this week as Steven recovers from loosing his voice. In the mean time, please enjoy Travelling Light, a science fantasy podcast from the creator of Monstrous Agonies, H.R. Owen. It follows the Traveller as they explore their galaxy, collecting stories from the people they meet and adding them to their community archives. With audience submissions and choose-your-own-adventure decision making, listeners are able to shape the Traveller's story and the world in which it unfolds. Each episode also features accompanying art work, shared on Monstrous Productions’ social media pages.
