Episode notes

I Joshua Norton, formerly of Agoa Bay, came of good hope. And for the past nine, nine years and 10 months of San Francisco, California, declare and proclaim myself emperor of these United States. The papers are like this guy rules. So we see a sort of sharply dressed feller in a red suit, swearing, kind of going up something they've written.

Welcome to our newest show-within-a-show! We're working our way through Neil Gaiman's signature graphic novel series THE SANDMAN. Some Patreon supporters get these episodes monthly, but every two months we'll combine them for general consumption.

In Episode 5: A GAME OF YOU, the story is about Barbie, her fantastical dreams, Barbie's friend Wanda, their neighbors Hazel and Foxglove, a vengeful witch named Thessaly, an authoritarian cuckoo bird, and MARTIN FLIPPING TENBONES.

In Episode 6: FABLES AND REFLECTIONS, Gaiman penned another set of one-off stories. Some are fables, others are reflections. Tune in to find out which is which!
