WTNV quick rundown - 95 - Zookeeper
Check my tags or this link for the other episodes etc that I've done!
Featuring the voice of Felicia Day as Joanna Rey.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a cursed talisman must be in want of a hex reversal. Welcome to Night Vale.
Cecil is visited by head zookeeper Joanna Rey who has brought in several animals for Cecil to see.
Joanna has brought in a chicken, which apparently somewhat resembles a raccoon. Cecil always assumed chickens were mythical because he'd never seen one. They have bright orange and yellow wings, dozens of spiny legs, antennae and are considered exotic animals (at least by Cecil).
She also brings brown tarantulas, which aren't as exciting to Cecil due to being 'common' but she says she has brought them because they are horribly undereducated as a species. The zoo has taught these ones to be sentient and to read and they are named Samantha, Jordy, Nash, Carmelo, Patrice, Garfield and Helen. Despite being able to read they are not able to communicate what they have learned.
Joanna also brings in piglets. Cecil names one Wobbles and another The Professor. There is also a steer (which has wings).
Joanna than transforms into a panther and consumes every animals she brought in except the tarantulas (who go and get jobs in human resources). She states that she is a shapeshifter and always takes the form of a big cat to eat because people are disturbed when she eats her meals in the form of a human.
Joanna has apparently also dated a dragon called Donna who had at least one gold and one green head and dumped her only after trying to ghost her for a good while.
Weather: "Coffee" by Sylvan Esso
Many citizens are complaining about all the five-headed dragons. Marjory Vallejo, manager of the Dollar Cinema says they take up a dozen seats each and obscure the view for others. Teddy Williams has cancelled league night because of the scratches in the lanes. Bob Sturm, vice president of the NV Auto Insurance Company says there has been an uptake in dragon related incidents and they will no longer be covering anyone who owns a car. Cecil suggests that everyone try their best to be friendly which involves pointing at the dragons and shouting "interloper!" and following them home asking invasive questions.
Old Woman Josie apparently has childern. One of which, her daughter Alondra, has returned to NV from ??? to take care of Josie due to Josie's aforementioned broken hip. Josie doesn't speak about her children very much likely because she is bitter they left her to live outside of the desert. She insists that she's fine because she lives with the angels but Alondra is keen to stay and take care of her mother. Cecil and Intern Kareem have a small disagreement about Cecil refusing to acknowledge the existence of angels and Cecil not believing how stubborn Kareem is about angels yet he wouldn't believe Cecil about Huntokar.
Josie also mentions that the StrexCorp Foundation supports not only the new old Opera House but her, several local arts groups, a library destruction fund and the charity 'Cars for Kids'.
According to Cecil, microphones are smarter than dolphins.
Many if not all roads are completely transparent today which is causing a lot of chaos.
Cecil states that his usual work outfit is a cummberbund and capri pants which apparently helps people understand that he is a journalist. However, he's dressed up a bit currently because it's Plastic Pancho Wednesday.
Stay tuned next, Night Vale, for the sound of scrubbing, followed by the sound of gagging, followed by the sound of liquid dribbling into a metal pan. And as always, good night, Night Vale. Good night.
Proverb: Wanna feel old? People born in 2014 have already graduated college, don't know what a trombone is, & are all named after gourds.

WTNV, The Amelia Project, and Directive?
[shouts ‘PODCASTS’ across the garden at you] Hello dear! :)
WTNV: What was your first podcast? 
you know what, im like 95% certain wtnv WAS my first lol. the gateway podcast
The Amelia Project: What podcast universe would you want to live in? 
that’s a tough one! not ars PARADOXICA because Yikes lol, not Starship Iris because that sounds stressful and while space sounds fun, i like to be on the very large wet dirt ball. i’d say either The Bright Sessions bc hell yeah superpowers are real and also a part of normal life, or The Far Meridian bc of the way it seamlessly mixes the fantastic and the everyday, and the way that although there are many things that are strange and impossible, they are, more importantly, real
Directive: Do you like shows to be short and sweet, or long form? 
In terms of series? Long! Form! More! Content! Hell! Yeah! In terms of episodes? I think i actually like the shorter ones, like the 15-30min range. Larger than that is a bit harder for me to digest all at once and I like to listen to the whole ep in a sitting
Thanks for asking!
Send me audio drama asks!
