They're calling.

The phone is ringing.

The phone is ringing.

A message from an unknown caller.

A voice unrecognizable.

Audio messages from the shadows.

But one message is clear, and it says,

brace yourself for the no sleep podcast.

Yeah. for the No Sleep podcast. We took off across across the across the campus at a dead run, witnessed only by the few blurry-eyed students on their way to morning classes.

When Riley finally came into view, I stumbled on the pavement as my blood turned to ice.

From our vantage point, we could clearly see the windows of the corner room we're closed.

Welcome, brilliant people. Why do I call you brilliant, you ask? Ah, the inquiring mind is a growing mind.

You are brilliant because you have chosen to listen to the No Sleep podcast. Only the best and brightest do.

And I assume your intelligence comes from a combination of life experiences and likely some formal education. You have a curious

mind. Knowledge enriches us. And during these tumultuous times, knowing how to learn how to exercise

critical thinking is paramount. And entering the hallowed halls of academia is usually the best way to learn. Learn about your

disciplines, the world, and yourself. Now, your curious minds might be wondering why old Cummings is

gnatering on about college and learning. Well, if we take a horror podcast and combine it with talk of university educations,

ipso facto due to the transit of property and the a priori adjunct of non-naturalistic causes,

we can only conclude that the stories on this episode feature people dealing with

nightmarish situations based in or around the collegiate life.

QED.
