153 - The Heist, Part 1

[@subtlefire7256]

Personal highlights: - constellations are fan art - Carlos - a puppy named Bob Ross - the way Cecil says "cooing" - Steve Carlsberg being okay

[@klltsun_2576]

Last episode Cecil was sounded so cheerful, that when I heard his calm voice here I just mentally melted. Reminded me of the earlier episodes with it's calmness.

[@janeeggleston9542]

Constellations are fan art-brilliant!

[@largo778]

Strange but technical true, perfect for Night Vale

[@IamParadoxic]

A heist? of the last bank of night vale? well that's no good, that's where I keep my sanity when I'm not using it, like when I placed it in there.

[@ari638]

Sans?!

[@justeundonut-moi.7979]

I lost my will to live and the last time I saw it was at the bank. Now I'm worried !

[@kieran6108]

Is it just me, or is this episode oddly normal?

[@largo778]

Yes, but normal for Night Vale

[@saphcal]

its "Part 1". Im sure this is all set up for the truly odd stuff in part 2.

[@aprils6589]

Finally!

[@rebeccalambert3240]

Maybe that's the odd part.

[@Bookdragon6660]

Carlos just keeps getting more and more adorable, I can’t.

[@juliagoodwin3461]

I’m glad Steve Carlsburg is safe. Thank Huntrokar, the Smiling God, and The Mighty Glow Cloud (All Hail)...

[@Q-werty30]

Don’t forget the GŒŁDËŃ HÆÑD

[@trashedeggnog3858]

Cecil just goes on about his personal life in a slow news day huh

[@alfiet9532]

Oh no. The money that Steve was saving for the house. He would have kept it in the bank... Also a concept: green and purple are very complimentary colours

[@SoulQueenoD]

Is this the first rut in their relationship? Carlos, wtf are you doing with your life? Cecil sounds so normal. Almost objective. It’s like the first episode 🤔 Will never stop appreciating how Cecil transfered his hâte of Steve to Susan. 😂

[@klltsun_2576]

Kamilah Max well, in past episodes Cecil mentions how Carlos would get distracted with doing science all the time

[@Your_Local_Bushman]

I’m apart of a Night Vale Discord server and everyone keeps saying that their relation ship might end.... honestly I can’t if their marriage ends.

[@SoulQueenoD]

Kleithsune Tails25 it won’t, they’ve just never had to deal with something mundane making things hard for them. They’ll pull through.

[@klltsun_2576]

Portraits of yourself No, I won't believe it. Carlos was perfectly willing to start over when Cecil forgot about him, I will not have that memory ruined.

[@SoulQueenoD]

Kleithsune Tails25 They just got married, there’s no way they’ll divorce. Old Woman Josie, Huntokar preserve her, will come back from the dead before they split

[@peteisgod66]

Why do I have a sinking feeling Steve is somehow wrapped up in the robbery? Maybe he's possessed but I have a theory that he is involved in stealing the money it's all too coincidental

[@peteisgod66]

@Scarrow Man And where was he during the whole situation? What was he doing? It's all too suspicious

[@robt.v.8688]

I haven't been through Night Vale in a long time. It feels like a lifetime ago.

[@felixcosm]

Cecil is SO fucking petty I love him

[@felixcosm]

Lol I am relistening to this episode and came down to the comments to say what I said two years ago. I love this petty radio host

[@Halfway_to_nowhere_owo]

Hearing about the accessibility and accommodation for Janice so casually makes me SO HAPPY.

[@tapsy_tapsy]

The highlights in this episode for me were the police brainstorming, the firefighters and Cecil's passiveness for Susan Willman😂

[@rainbowzebra361]

Oh no! Not the backsplash! Not the rug! Not the countertops! I hope Carlos is okay with being green, I hear it's not easy ;) Steve's mancave sounds awesome. I didn't realize the sheriff had overt police. Oh man, I hope everyone will be okay! I wonder where Steve is. Glad Jesse is ok from the fire hose. I'm so glad Steve's okay. Oh no! No HBO! Have a great day :)

[@TheAwsomeKing77]

And done I took about a year off from this podcast and just a few days ago got back in I finally caught back up

[@jadamarie7135]

A puppy named footstool. I love it. All the puppies sound adorable.

[@KumaoftheForest]

Just started back with WTNV, is Cecil’s voice different or am I going crazy

[@regicider3505]

nah hes just got a better mic

[@KumaoftheForest]

I liked the other voice, it was unique

[@bewareebear]

He also seems to have gotten a lot more expressive in the past year or so

[@jcat379]

Did I miss something? Since when was Lee Marvin 31 years old? did time start having meaning again?

[@peteisgod66]

Yup. The season finale this year had Lee fixing time so he could start aging

[@jcat379]

@@peteisgod66 Thanks so much for reminding me. I thought that was just him fixing the whole BloodSpace War thing that started reading people from existence

[@peteisgod66]

@@jcat379 No problem!

[@chaoticpotato6463]

I keep getting startled by these notifications dhxhsh, always a joy to see though

[@shadedway5277]

Fun fact: Steve and Abby the ship name is Stabby

[@saphcal]

A rug from Svitz!? Wow what a find!

[@patriziamohr7202]

CECIL! DON'T YOU dare TO INSULT THE MOON! SHE IS BEAUTIFUL

[@rosemarycat5]

She rules the sky with lunar goodness

[@TripleS-Reviews]

The bass of his voice still hurts my ears with these new episodes =/ I like to relisten from the beginning a lot and I'm too used to him sounding like how he used to, old Cecil mic was better imo

[@DERyuga]

I dont think Cecil can control that though, poor guy's voice is probably drained with how long he's been doing the show and all of the new stuff that they've been doing all at once. Of course your voice is going to sound more coarse and strained the more you use it. I dont think it's solely a mic problem.

[@Istillcantthinkofahandle]

Besides new audio tech that WTNV mighy be using, it could also be the medication he's on taking its toll on his body. I'm not sure if it is, but it might be a possibility.

[@mothman7855]

This was my first episode caught up, don’t think I can wait 15 days for another

[@torinvlietstra6002]

So exited for Within The Wires, it’s my favorite welcome to night vale podcast

[@Grave_gardiner]

Saw you guys live in New Zealand at your ALL HAIL show 😍😍 I've been listening since 2012 and I've loved every post. Can't wait for the next episode 💜💜 Please put Dunedin, New Zealand on your list.✌🏿

[@pollyrg97]

I'm after Whanganui. Because the river is a person and the letter 'h' is controversial, so we're basically Night Vale's somewhat safer sister city.

[@shambledhearts9968]

I literally just bought tickets for the Kelowna show and I'm so excited!

[@Reid_1998]

3:03 whomst'd've???

[@fullmoonkris]

Wait, Cecil said that the moon is "aweful"... I have to move to Dessert Bluffs in protest. The moon is wonderful and beautiful and doesn't hurt your eyes like that horrible sun.

[@netgeekdoggirl]

well sOmeone did just buy a new house aNd car...

[@MugetsuFused]

What are we heisting today boys?

[@jordanjoestar9096]

The deeds to the souls of nightvale citizens :T

[@0therun1t21]

I named a Siamese cat Turkey Baster, looks like I'm in good company.

[@bencebotye3904]

Night Vale Police feel like from the Simpsons in this episode, imagine Sheriff Sam: "Okay guys, we has to solve this case! So no HBO until we found these bad guys! Don't see me like that, just make me full of remorse! All right, can watch in off-duty! Now everybody go back to the station to watch Point Break for getting the head of those criminals!"

If she uglied-up the uniforms so the trees wouldn’t have as many compliments, that means that their compliments are most likely genuine which is really sweet

[@iliketoeatbatteries8122]

@JoTheJo that’s true, “so bright and unique!”

[@nerdlingful]

Pretty obvious to me that Steve is the master mind. We will find out I guess

[@TORchic1]

phew. I'm glad Steve Carlsburg is alright.

[@doctordisney5755]

Oh my smiling god Janice is 16?!?

[@bewareebear]

Probably. Time is weird in night vale

[@giulia5634]

I love Steve but hes awfully suspicious in this episode... I dont think he'd be the kind of person who robs a bank but who knows

[@kingofpoliwhirls7464]

. . . A small part of me thinks Steve Carlsberg planned this heist

Why are you retiring WTNV?

the ending was off to me it was like "yeah cops good ,fuck criminals" whitout any other context and it doesnt really fit WTNV

The new narrator of within the wires has a veeeeeeery misguided idea of what the world was like before the wreckoning.

I seriously dont like this new cecil.

[@joshuafass5841]

Yup, nope. I cant listen to this. This is not our Cecil and i hate it. Ill skip the whole heist until our Cecil comes back.
