144 - The Dreamer

[@Echos.Art.Corner]

I usually just walk in circles when I'm listening to these. And then they end, and I still walk in circles. It's been months since I haven't been walking in circles, my heart is tired and yet my feet won't retire. My family is crying, and so am I. Oh well, at least I have a new collection of noises to fill my eternity.

What a power move, dying of old age before your birth day.

[@dmichand5191]

True

[@sleepyselkiesiren]

"Science is neat!" Is this Carlos' ancestor?

[@echothenardier8053]

Kiara Byerly That may explain why Carlos was able to get into Night Vale and wasn’t forced to leave the our version of the town during the universe convergence arc

"go play on tiktok and stop staring at me, you're really creeping me out" 😂😂😂

kittens all the way up even more proof cecils a cat person now

[@eddyangstman]

not gonna lie, those brownie pans that only make edges are a gift to the world.

[@gamingvampireking1704]

How about a pan that only makes corners

[@ratteeth7306]

Gamingvampireking any pan can on,y make corners is you make big enough brownies

[@mmushypushy]

just pop brownie batter in a muffin tin if y'all like edges

[@DaddyIsntDoneSpeaking]

[@otakuribo]

22:06 _how dare she not use the full name of *John Peters... You Know, The Farmer*

[@Zhuravliov]

Are you sure it wasn't "John Peters...You know, The War Hero"?

[@d.lan3y]

It pays to stay up until midnight spacifically to catch the new episode. Also, midnight is a GREAT time to listen. Seriously. Just turn off the lights, leave your phone on, and stare at the ceiling. It's surreal and great. (Dude. There were literally no views when I started the episode. Now it has over 200.)

[@butt9094]

Agreed

[@flareinc7413]

Indeed. Haven't gone to sleep in weeks without NtNV playing in the darkness

[@bjorncollins1474]

Last time I saw an eclipse, I laid on the roof with my eclipse glasses with Night Vale playing in the background. I have concluded that it is the ideal way to listen.

[@d.lan3y]

@@bjorncollins1474 damn I wanna try that

[@spaceykid]

Dude. Now it has over 20k!

[@rainbowzebra361]

Aww, that science is neat line made me so happy! I'm very proud of Eunomia and still very confused about the blood space war. OMG Tik Tok, was not expecting that reference. Also, Pamela continues to confuse and delight me. Have a great day :)

[@tomatofacedwitch2394]

That was actually a really interesting episode!!! I really hope they talk about this war more, its extremely interesting and I'm very curious about it!! Aliens?? Wonderful. Weird time lines?? Spectacular. Science? Neat!

[@cameronstrommen1714]

i miss the old microphones they used

[@tomorrowsclassic505]

so glad someone else noticed!

[@daeganish7304]

Oh man I've been puzzling over this for so long I thought Cecil sounded really different and couldn't place it, I wish they used these ones for the deep and serious episodes and the older ones for the lighthearted stuff. It really changed the vibe idk Still loving and listening though, stay weird!

[@-coffeecat1590]

that little story in the traffic really hit me. just knowing what will happen to your children must absolutely ruin your life and every experience you have with them. Technically we know that our children will die eventually, but knowing *how* is horrifying.

[@chrismeyer7696]

Just what i need for the insomnia...... and to take my mind off the countless eyes that watch me sleep.

[@adammontoya5759]

What the heck is going on with Cecil's voice? :(

[@echothenardier8053]

The name Yazmin sounds familiar... I think we’ve heard that name before in this podcast, but I can’t put my finger on when

[@taylorl.4247]

From episode 79- lost in the mail!

[@echothenardier8053]

Taylor L. Thank you! :) I thought that’s where it was from, but I wasn’t sure

[@mickey5967]

this was the most incredible episode in a very, very long time. I am hooked once again.

[@chroamathebrute]

the craft changes the same colors as the sky as reported in a much earlier episode. just something i noticed

[@ylk4612]

I love the concept of the blood space war. It's so NightVale-ish...but at the same time, WHO knows what we are fighting against and why anyway?

[@ylk4612]

Eunomia nooooooooo

[@ylk4612]

omg I started to binge listen this series for a few weeks ago now I finally reached a part where Cecil makes TikTok reference did I reach the modern era

[@IamParadoxic]

Alright, ominous title, and even more ominous description. so just an average episode i guess

[@owenb711]

No homo

[@fauxclaws]

"and inside those pods *-WeRE DeAd BODieS-* "

[@mothysjar]

The day I hear Night Vale reference Tik Tok is the day I leave this mortal plane. Therefore I’m going to pretend I didn’t hear anything and drink to forget.

[@CrispyNoLonger]

Them knowing tiltok implys that they probly know hit or miss, kanye west likes fingers, and other tiktok classics. This scares me

[@mothysjar]

Echo Is Crispy Kanye West Likes Fingers In His Ass actually originated from Tumblr some time ago before The Tumblr Purge Of 2018

[@jamesclark6864]

They have their own trends

[@galladegamerletsplays]

I noticed that the name Eunomia sounds so similar to "You know me", was that intentional?

[@vickikondylas555]

Beautifull song ,,,,thank you 👏🌙Vale for the link to the artist🌹✨✨✨✨✨

[@Q-werty30]

My Omori-fan self seeing the title of this video had a heart attack…… I wonder how much existential dread will be in this episode.. I shall update with more in the replies

[@Q-werty30]

Yeppe existential dread

[@phoenixbloomshadowsong7253]

​@@Q-werty30 omori and nightvale really do have similar vibes.

[@briannabergman8381]

The weather was beautiful today!

[@aro_kc459]

wonderful weather today

[@flareinc7413]

Great episode, great trailer for an awesome idea. You People rock

[@Twigrl4820]

New NightVale!!!! Perfect beginning to the day!

[@cupid4394]

Just as i was about to sleep lmao, sleep can wait

[@rebeccalambert3240]

21:45 Nice job Cecil. You will be an amazing parent 👍 XD

[@sakurastar55]

I felt slapped in the face by that John Green reference

[@fireflyer3820]

"Pamela, out." 😂😂😂

[@gamingvampireking1704]

ALL HAIL

[@iliketoeatbatteries8122]

All hail

[@old_redlk3319]

Does anyone know what story he's talking about at 23:49 when he says "And a dream that cannot be awoken from"

[@Shimahou]

The Dreamer, huh? Welcome To Nightwave.

[@eliokha]

Warframe post-blood space war confirmed

[@CuriosityCore101]

I cannot WAIT for Start With This!

[@tarensGambit]

I just came here from listening to the first episode. I have never heard this podcast before, and from going to the first to the most recent episode is REALLY TRIPPY. What the shit is happening??

[@tavrosnitram1529]

all I have to say to you, is that you have *quite* the ride ahead of you, so strap yourself in

[@remanjecarter2787]

WELCOME I'M CONSTANTLY SCARED The episodes always appear when i have something important happening, even before the concrete schedule

[@linco8352]

Amazing!

[@joyfullyitdevours]

The fact that,, Cecil knows what TikTok is,,, scares me

[@justrosy5]

So, this, with "White Rabbit" (Smothers Brothers) playing very softly in the background.

[@smol_chilli_pepper]

I love any episode about the blood space war

[@RainbowMagicCosplay]

Did...did they just acknowledge tiktok..? Because if so that leads me to wonder if they've seen some of like the stuff from there... maybe even some night vale cosplays but I mean tiktok memes are everywhere so it's hard to even guess

[@CrispyNoLonger]

They know hit or miss exists and thats all that currently matters

[@cosplaydreams4136]

YAAAAAAAAS

[@rukeyazu8669]

You know... if the bloodiest battle in the blood space war only resulted in an estimated 200 dead... that’s a very tame war, all things considered...

[@echothenardier8053]

Lukas Kenison Although, there may be multiple versions of each person fighting, as the alternate timelines are confirmed to exist. These 200 may be only from a version of Night Vale, either ours or one of the alternate timelines, as in this episode, Yasmin is fighting in the war, instead of waiting for her father’s return like in episode 79

[@whoamitoblame]

I just don't get why the music plays at the end. Maybe you explained that but... it's unsettling to be woken up by the music that Plays...its just much

[@jensencaldwell5101]

the description is wrong: eunomia is a *20th* century farm girl

[@butt9094]

War, War never changes.

[@Probly_a_sweet_potato]

Haha! John Green Reference!

[@justeundonut-moi.7979]

10:36 Are we not going to talk about that ?

[@MoTee3]

What song is this

[@MorganRenfield]

I thought John Peters (you know, the farmer) created invisible corn because otherwise he couldn't plant crops. V confused

[@beforusAJ]

FUCK YES

[@CallMeTess]

Pamela what the fuck

[@LeonardGreenpaw]

AHHHHHHH CECIL IS A NERDFIGHTER HOLY DAMN

[@supershinigami1]

Tik Tok reference in 2019??😮😮

[@ruun6327]

YeS

[@plxnetastro]

Nobody is asking the important questions. Why does Nightvale exist in the same timeline as TikTok?

[@tavrosnitram1529]

I think its because nightvale seems to exist in every timeline (as expressed further by dana(?) fighting herself, again during that whole blood matter storm thing)

[@b.sharp.]

Weird.

[@netgeekdoggirl]

The edges are the worst part of any food and y'all are sinners

[@iliketoeatbatteries8122]

It’s the day of the 2020 election, so I’m listening to this to escape the fear of facing another four years of trump. Love you night vale

[@supershinigami1]

It thankfully didn't happen. But it's time to be afraid again 😮

[@iliketoeatbatteries8122]

@@supershinigami1 I’m just barely too young to vote and I’m absolutely terrified. Maybe night vale will save us again this year..
