Danger, Vicious Dog

Choosing Your Battles  starts with a simple, unreasonable question: do you need language to die? And then immediately refuses to behave. This episode wanders through pronouns, grief, time dilation, buffet lines, counselling students who cry too easily, and the strange professionalism of learning when to leave the room—or stay and shake. It was written the day after a dog died. Not to process it. N...

Season Two begins by insisting it isn’t what it said it would be.  Not Sacrè Bleu.  Which already tells you the problem isn’t naming things—it’s believing names ever stabilized anything in the first place. This episode starts with Mary Shelley, briefly, because Frankenstein has become less a warning than a how-to manual. A recipe we keep misreading on purpose. Add brilliance. Add ambition. Ignore...

This is the end of Season One. Or maybe it already ended. Or maybe it’s still beginning. In this final episode of Danger, Vicious Dog , everything folds in on itself: desire, restraint, evidence, grief, climate, sex, counselling, Easter eggs, drag queens, dogs, black holes, old ladies, and the strange comfort of not knowing who you are. This episode moves like a mind thinking out loud—circling, lo...

This episode is Art in the sense that it refuses to behave. Art as digestion. Art as insomnia. Art as an egg you keep flipping long after it’s over easy. Beakless Chicken  starts as breakfast and turns into geopolitics, memory, factory farming, platform capitalism, trauma, fandom, fatigue, fame, obscurity, lava lamps, sleep, and the slow realization that rhetoric without power is just complaining—...

This episode is Art. Not  about  Art. Not  like  Art. It is Art in the way a bruise is body-colored Art, or the way a margin note accidentally becomes the main text. This is spoken Art, edited Art, Art that keeps interrupting itself to ask whether it’s still Art, and then answering incorrectly. It’s Art that doesn’t behave, Art that refuses to clarify its intentions, Art that keeps saying “this is...

This episode drifts into a question that didn’t feel abstract if you were coming of age before treatment, before the acronyms stabilized, before survival felt like something you could plan for. It’s a Gen-X question. Not in the flannel-and-irony sense, but in the historical timing sense: old enough to remember answering machines, young enough to watch whole social worlds evaporate before anyone fi...

E6: Endless Interlude (On Ludes)  is not an episode so much as a sustained drift. A holding pattern. A chemically inspired thought experiment without chemicals, except language, scale, boredom, and awe. This episode begins with a familiar feeling — the sense of “hitting your stride” — and then immediately dismantles it. Every moment is already over. Each instant its own universe, complete and gone...

Episode Five is where the podcast stops pretending it’s a podcast and instead becomes a  structural failure in the metaphysics of narration . Two voices—one British-ish alien puppet aunt, the other a man recalling things no man should recall sober—twist around each other like a double helix made of panic, horniness, and municipal bylaws that were never meant to apply to human beings. We begin with...

In  E4: Gen-Q to the X, Particles Waving from the 51st State: Season 1: Carthaginian Peace, Episode 3: Powder Puff Girls, S1: Failure of Language , the boundaries between childhood, danger, nationhood, and nostalgia blur like a long-lost VHS tape wobbling in a dying VCR. This episode moves from queer coming-of-age to algorithmically-engineered loneliness, from mall dumpsters to emotional inheritan...

If Episode 1 cracked open the door and Episode 2 widened it to reveal the whole trembling world,  Episode 3 walks you backward through it—into the origin chamber. Natural Fudge Company  is the Hollywood year everything started leaking: the concert, the station wagon roof, the ecstatic disintegration of an afterparty, the erotic claustrophobia of a twin bed, the counsellor who tries to contain a pe...

Episode 1 stayed close: dogs, grief, Canada, you, the listener, the claustrophobia of language itself. Episode 2 blows the walls out.  Danger, Vicious Dog  exits the personal house-of-mirrors and sprints straight into global collapse, immigration bureaucracy, American dementia, Facebook neon-trash capitalism, and the existential whiplash of hearing your suburb’s air-raid sirens and realizing you d...

Season One begins with a found object—an audio fragment the “vicious dog” couldn’t swallow.  From there, Episode 1 becomes a controlled derailment: a walk that turns into a confession, that turns into national identity performance art, climate dread, queer history, tarot, AIDS memories, psychic readings, automatic writing, and the impossibility of endings. This debut episode establishes the series...
