Within the Wires

Within the Wires is an epistolary fiction-inspired dramatic anthology podcast. The listener, a medical detainee at a facility known as the institution, is guided by the enigmatic narrator of educational relaxation cassettes in the first season. You'll fall in love with the show's unusual storytelling approaches, and each season takes a fresh approach to how it frames and delivers its story.


The story of the first season is told through a series of modified guided meditation cassettes that speak directly to you, the listener. What appears to be typical cryptic and imprecise relaxation instructions quickly turn into smuggled escape plans from a government institute where you, the listener, have been imprisoned for disobeying the rules of your dystopian society. Season 2 tells its story through increasingly personal art museum audio guide snippets, which you, the listener, utilize to take you through a missing artist's exhibition. Season 3 is a narrated email exchange transcript. Each season reveals more and more about the strange new world in which these stories are set, and hearing that picture take shape is breathtaking.
