  Episode #10

  S2E10 Little America by Ed Falco

  Aug 15, 202632 minS2

  A short story by Ed Falco, narrated by Anthony, a New Yorker crossing the country by van with his fiancée, Vivian, who has spent her life in the West and loves it with something like devotion. As they drive through Wyoming, Anthony finds himself unnerved by the vast, barren landscape. What begins as a romantic trip—one Vivian has imagined as a kind of extended honeymoon before the wedding—quickly gives way to friction. When a miscalculation leaves them far from their intended destination, they pull off the road into an empty stretch of desert, where the silence and isolation seem to heighten everything between them, including the strange and ever shifting boundaries of intimacy.

  Episode #8

  S2E8 Semper Paratus by Alyson Hagy

  Aug 1, 202635 minS2

  A short story by Alyson Hagy. “Semper Paratus”—the Coast Guard motto, meaning “Always Ready”—follows Randall, the lone woman in a Coast Guard rescue crew stationed on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, nicknamed the graveyard of the Atlantic. The story unfolds in the aftermath of a disturbing rescue attempt, and like much of Hagy’s writing, it’s less interested in melodrama than in the complicated emotional residue left behind: guilt, endurance, rivalry, loneliness, and the strange intimacies forged under pressure.
