<![CDATA[Quack in the dark]]>I want to take a second and talk to everyone who’s been listening to Quack in the Dark.

Season one started as an idea—just telling stories and seeing what stuck.

And because of you… it became something way bigger.

The support, the messages, the theories… all of it matters more than you probably realize.

So going into season two, I didn’t want to just repeat what we already did.

I want to evolve it.

The stories are getting deeper.

The structure is changing.

And we’re going to start doing things we haven’t done before.

Some episodes might connect.

Some might feel different.

And some might pull you in a little more than you expect.

This next season is about pushing Quack in the Dark to the next level.

So if you’ve been here… stay with me.

And if you’re new…

You picked the right time to start listening.

Season two is coming.
