Show Notes

Happy Father’s Day! We’re celebrating with a paternally themed episode of Quiet Please, entitled, “My Son John.” A doting father aches for the return of his son who has been lost overseas. In his desperation, he turns to the occult, but soon discovers, “there’s always a catch.” Will what he finds truly be his son? Will his love for his child carry him past the point of no return? Do we have any acting tips to infuse mustard with menace? Listen for yourself and find out! (Like many episodes of Quiet Please, the audio on this one can be challenging. You might wish to follow along with this transcript of the show.)
