Hi there!  Producer Jeffrey here. We’re really excited to share an episode from the show we made directly after Our Fair City- Unwell, a Midwestern Gothic Mystery. It’s a very different show- it’s a gothic story set in rural Ohio, centering around a smaller cast of characters- but we think if you like Our Fair City, you’ll really love Unwell.  You’ll also hear a bunch of familiar voices and hear the work of some of your favorite folks who worked on Our Fair City, along with some brand new folks! Unwell is also a complete show- you can head over to that feed and hear five complete seasons of the show.   Thanks so much for listening, and we hope you enjoy! === Lily Harper comes “home.” ⁠Content Advisories for this episode can be found here. ⁠ ⁠You can read a transcript for this episode here⁠.
