I told the creators of Welcome to Night Vale about the sexyman poll.
im taking a narrative podcast production course, and we had joseph fink and jeffery cranor come speak to the class over zoom
as the final question of our Very Serious QA panel, i told them about the tumblr sexyman poll, with hundreds of thousands of votes, and that cecil still won a decade later. i asked if the power of creating The Sexiest Fictional Man was something that could go to their heads. they couldnt stop laughing.
joseph gave a long spiel about how grateful he is for the impact Night Vale had — he told a story about seeing a fictional flights board in an airport and that it felt so strange to see Night Vale up there. he was super humble and said that Night Vale ‘belongs to the fans’ and takes no ownership of Sexy Creationism.
then jeffery comes in like ‘yeah, what he said, but personally i think it does go to my head’ and giggled and said “It feels pretty awesome.”

Witches Abroad (Terry Pratchett) "The villain rules her fairy-tale kingdom with an iron fist, using coercive magic and the force of law alike to ensure that everyone follows out the narrative threads she has assigned them. Toymakers must be cheerful and whistling, wolves must be lurking in the woods to assault guileless travelers, and cinder-sweeping girls must marry the prince -- whether they want to or not."
The faceless old woman who secretly lives in your home (Joseph Fink and Jeffery Cranor) "Serious spoiler warnings for this one." (See below cut)
It's framed like a biography that the Faceleed Old Woman is telling Craig, the descendant of the man who killed her. After she dies, as a sort of ghost, she haunts and attempts to kill her murderer, but she fails. She then spends the rest of time manipulating and killing all of his descendants. She is constantly doing things that they don't notice to get them to have kids, etc, and then when they get old enough, causes an accident so the first born son always dies. The villain, and TFOW murderer is also a manipulator. He gets her on a wild goose chase for years to find out who killed her father, and managed to trick her into a situation where he could kill her.

"But first, a word from our sponsors.
How many ants are there? You’ve never really thought about that, have you? Or you’ve thought about it, but you didn’t really pursue the matter further. To you, 'How many ants' is nothing more than a hypothetical to ponder with friends late into the night. Definitely more ants than humans, one of your friends said, and you all agreed like this was a good point, but you knew it to be a point so obvious as to be perfectly meaningless.
So how many ants are there? Have you googled it? Or tried counting a small sample, say your front lawn, and then multiplied it out to the relative area of the earth? Have you considered whether or not there are sea ants? Bet you didn’t think of that. Back to the calculator, Poindexter.
You’re not a lazy person. Not generally. No, you’re definitely a good person. A productive person. You can tell just by looking at yourself, can’t you? But when it comes to certain tasks, you cut corners. You put them off. Or you go beyond the limits of procrastination and don’t do it at all.
We can hear you, right now, typing out the question 'How many ants' into your preferred search engine. Stop. It’s too late for that. Someone already figured it out. Twenty quadrillion. You could have helped in this project, but you didn’t. Maybe you should do something about this condition of yours that prevents you from helping people count ants.
Now, there’s Chaxlidril. Chaxlidril may cause nausea, spooning, or a nu-metal revival. Stop taking Chaxlidril if you can no longer see birds. Chaxlidril is far less afraid of you than you are of it. And those are the benefits.
You don’t want to hear the side-effects. It’s got nothing to do with ants, but I will say it’s still in the arthropod phylum.
Ask your doctor WHY. Ask your doctor what he’s doing with that hook. Ask your doctor while you can still move your lips.
Chaxlidril: You had your chance. Now hold still."
- Joseph Fink and Jeffery Cranor, from Welcome to Night Vale, ep. 231.

Sexiest Podcast Character — Night Vale Bracket — Round Α
Tumblr media
Propaganda
Hiram McDaniels:
he commits tax fraud. he is literally a five headed dragon. what more could you possibly want in a man?
18 foot tall five headed dragon
Intern Joseph Fink:
Literally Joseph Fink
Mod note: I am assuming this is about the Joseph Fink that has been in Night Vale since episode 188 - Listener Questions, and was only a NVCR intern in episode 217 - Salmon Burger. I am assuming this is NOT the Intern Joseph that died in the liveshow The Investigators, which the wiki says was Intern Jeffery in some performances.
Mod note 2: Please please please only offer propaganda for the fictional Joseph Fink and not the real one. I do not want to find myself blocked by one of my top three favorite podcasts because y'all got too horny about a real person on my tournament.

“I don’t know what to tell you. We all don’t get happy lives. Maybe a happy life doesn’t exist, at least not as some complete, discrete entity. We get what we get and we sort through how we feel about it moment by moment.”
— Joseph Fink & Jeffery Cranor, The Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives In Your Home, pg. 261-262
I don’t know, this struck a chord with me— forgive the cliché formatting

Top or favorite 5 books?
Ooh, this is a good one.
Reaper Man by Terry Pratchett
Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett
Welcome to Night Vale by Joesph Fink and Jeffery Cranor
Carrie by Stephen King
Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood (those it's tied with The Handmaid's Tale for my favorite book by her)
Really I'm a big fan of most of Terry Pratchett's works (particularly Discworld). Reaper Man is definitely my favorite book, the scene where Death makes his case to his superior has stuck with me for years.

OH OH IHAVE ONE HOLD ON firstly. any book recommendations. secondly. do you have any inspirations for art or any favorite works of art (by yourself or someine else)?
OOOH BOOK RECS...... I'm a textbook case of having fallen off of reading traditional novels in teen+adulthood but I still love reading and I love comics !!!
The Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives In Your Home: A Welcome To Night Vale Novel by Joseph Fink and Jeffery Cranor - has the longest title I have to write every single time i rec it. miserable - my first thought when i think "favorite book ever"!! I read the first chapter as a printed preview I got when seeing wtnv live in 2019, and I've loved it madly ever since. It's got some of my favorite writing and passages from the authors ever, all as part of a really really entertaining historic mystery plot. I love it a lot, it's really dear to me and lives on my desk at all times
are you listening? by Tillie Walden - TILLIE WALDEN!! GOD !!!! - Just finished this recently but I can confidently call it one of my favorite graphic novels ever. It follows the story of two friends on a road trip who eventually find a cat and I cant tell you anything else but ohh my god. oh my god. it's a surreal and beautifully illustrated exploration into these two girls and their reasons for leaving home and it inspired me more than anything i've read in the last year
INSPIRATIONS. OH MAN THERE'S TOO MANY.
I'm inspired by just about every artist I see but recently the people that come to mind are @/cordspaghetti, Kamome Shirahama, Tillie Walden + all my mutuals and irl artist friends who are mind-bogglingly talented and keep me creating

The faceless old woman who secretly lives in your home (Joseph Fink and Jeffery Cranor) "Serious spoiler warnings for this one." (See below cut)
Ever After High: The Legend of Shadow High (Shannon & Dean Hale) "Now, Ever After High itself is very Web. The children of famous fairytales being destiny-bound to relive their stories or go 'poof' is the driving force behind all the books' conflicts.
However, Shadow High takes it to another level. The narrators, who were present throughout the series, are more influential within the story. Even the straight-laced narrator parents who believe only in observing stories leave 'plop devices' to coerce characters in or out of making decisions. The titular Shadow High is a school for narrators run by antagonist Ms. Direction after a narrator schism between those who observe stories and those who control them. Ms. Direction uses 'unmaking lava' that turns characters and props into the words that compose them, destroying them so that they can be made again in her vision. She also uses narration to compel characters into doing her bidding. The narrator of the book, Brooke Page, is the daughter of the other books' narrators and has frequent arguments with her parents between chapters about why she can't intervene in the story to help the characters. Brooke ultimately does this in the book's climax by climbing the Fourth Wall and asking the reader for help, turning the book into a choose-your-own-adventure and having the reader write in how Ms. Direction is ultimately defeated.
Also, it's a crossover with Monster High so Frankie Stein and Draculaura are there."
It's framed like a biography that the Faceleed Old Woman is telling Craig, the descendant of the man who killed her. After she dies, as a sort of ghost, she haunts and attempts to kill her murderer, but she fails. She then spends the rest of time manipulating and killing all of his descendants. She is constantly doing things that they don't notice to get them to have kids, etc, and then when they get old enough, causes an accident so the first born son always dies. The villain, and TFOW murderer is also a manipulator. He gets her on a wild goose chase for years to find out who killed her father, and managed to trick her into a situation where he could kill her.
