Return to America’s most beloved fictional hometown! Lake Wobegon is having a boom year thanks to millennial entrepreneurship—AuntMildred’s.com Gourmet Meatloaf, for example, or Universal Fire, makers of artisanal firewood seasoned with sea salt. Meanwhile, the author flies in to give eulogies at the funerals of five classmates, including a couple whom he disliked, and he finds a wave of narcissism crashing on the rocks of Lutheran stoicism.

As we move into our new studio space (after the first one was blown up in a fit of telekinetic rage at our Episode 1 Post-Prom) Derry Public Radio discusses the second half of "Carrie". Join the DPR Staff in breaking down what makes Carrie so tragic, who is the true villain of the story, how many ways this story could have turned out different, and finally, the fate of Chamberline. You may notice a slight difference in sound quality while we work out the kinks. We're happy to report that any sound issues have since been resolved.

As a boy, William Bellman commits one small, cruel act: killing a bird with his slingshot. Little does he know the unforeseen and terrible consequences of the deed, which is soon forgotten amidst the riot of boyhood games. By the time he is grown, with a wife and children of his own, William seems to be a man blessed by fortune - until tragedy strikes and the stranger in black comes. Desperate to save the one precious thing he has left, William enters into a rather strange bargain, with an even stranger partner, to found a decidedly macabre business.
