Show Notes
S2.1 Warm-blooded James Morello works the night shift on a far away space station. During one of his shifts, he realizes there’s something else out there with him in vast, emptiness. Written by Trey Stone (https://www.facebook.com/TreyStoneAuthor/) Narrated and produced by James Barnett AKA Jimmy Horrors (https://www.JamesBarnettCreative.com) With music by Tim Kulig (https://timkulig.com/) And Daniel Birch (https://danielbirchmusic.com) And Soularflair (https://freemusicarchive.org/) And Thom Robson (https://www.thomrobsonmusic.com/) And sound effects provided by Freesound.org The episode illustration was provided by Matt Seff Barnes (https://www.mattseffbarnes.com/) Joshua Boucher is our story programmer. Jasmine Arch manages our community. Mary Pastrano helps orchestrate the chaos. And the show would collapse into static and screams without the ongoing work of Karl Hughes, Georgia Triantafyllopoulou, and James Barnett — AKA Jimmy Horrors. Trey Stone grew up in rural Norway, the youngest of three siblings, excluding his younger brother who doesn’t count. Trey was always fascinated with stories, choosing more often than not to sit still and read and write about adventures than to run around outside having them in person. Trey has written five novels, including The Consequence of Loyalty, A State of Despair, A Form of Revenge, At The Gate & A Death Worth Living, and Fjordbeist, which is in Norwegian. He’s also written a handful of short stories. He has a degree in archaeology from the University of Southampton – what is archaeology if not storytelling, -building, -making, -sharing, and -investigating – and when he’s not writing he spends his time working as a slightly shorter (but much prettier) Harrison Ford-wannabe. Trey plays guitar with Norwegian death metal band Dark Delirium and sings, writes and plays in singer-songwriter folk-pop band Maryon. He likes playing video games, his favorites being anything by Bethesda, the main Pokemon series, and he has a nostalgic love for the Warcraft universe. He’ll occasionally run, though he much prefers to lift weights. He’s an uncle to at least 15 kids and he loves to travel if it wasn’t for the fact that it’s such a pain in the ass to do. Trey lives on an Arctic island, at 78 degrees north, where he works protecting the cultural heritage.
