Sudeapod, episode 967 for March 21, 2025.

2's company, 3 might be a sign of demonic possession, by Audrey Zoo.

Narrated by Pine Gonzalez, hosted by Cat Day, audio by Chelsea Davis.

Hey everyone, hope you're all doing okay. Spring is here in the Northern Hemisphere, and things are

waking up and pushing their way out of the ground. I'm Kat, Deputy Edster at Sudapod,

your host for this week, and I'm excited to tell you that

we have Two's company, Three Might Be a Sign of Demonic Possession. This story is a Sudapod

original. Audrey Zhu is a Chinese-American writer from North Carolina, where she studies computer

science, statistics and creative writing at UNC. Chabell

Hill. Her short fiction has been published in Strange Horizons and Orion's Belt, and is

forthcoming in the Silk and Sineu anthology from Bad Hand Books. When not writing, she likes to draw,

watch bad TV with her friends, and curate oddly specific playlists of music.

Find her at Audrey Sue on Blue Sky. Pine Gonzalez is a Puerto Rican Chinese American writer and voice actor

from the Chicago land area. They are the creator of the podcast's Tales from the Fringes of reality and forged bonds, both of which also feature their voice.

When not writing or working at a bookstore, they can be found listening to as many audio dramas as they are able to, and playing with their dog, Athena.

Before we continue, this story is told in second-person POV and has a content warning for

intimate partner death. Sort of. Not exactly. This will make sense soon. But anyway,

just in case, if that's tough for you, maybe skip this one. And now, we have a story for you, and we promise you,

it's true. Two's company, three might be a sign of demonic possession by Audrey Jo,

narrated by Pine Gonzalez. You didn't take the usual

precautions when Lynn died. You'd find out later how it happened, slippery tile floor, the trials of

installing a new shower curtain rod, and the surprisingly fragile vertebrae going up Lynn's neck.
