    14.2 Spooky Season | Halloween Comedy | A Haunting at Sparky's Tavern
    2026/10/20

    Send us Fan Mail

    It's Spooky Season and time for the annual pre-hibernation buffet. Hank the Tank is determined to eat his fill before winter arrives. Tricky Trina the Trash to Treasure Diva isn't looking forward to losing her hardworking bear for the winter season, and she's recruiting some help for winter.

    The Renaissance season is almost over, and Possum is having trouble wrapping his head around the Renaissance Fair's unusual visitors. What's a camel doing at a medieval festival? And what's the point of fairy wings if you don't need them to fly? His questions aren't winning him any new friends, but things get even more complicated when Owen Bobcat announces what instrument he'll be playing for the musical performance.

    In this episode, the annual Renaissance Fair has arrived, and with it come visitors that not all of the locals are excited about. As summer gives way to fall, our fictional news team covers medieval festivities, local traffic, community announcements, courtroom drama, seasonal changes, unusual trades, and the many complications that arise when a whole community of creatures gathers for a big celebration.

    Whether you're looking for a funny podcast, cozy fantasy, audio sitcom, or character-driven fiction, there's plenty happening in this whimsical radio-style comedy about a community of creatures living ordinary lives in an extraordinary little world.

    The community is populated by squirrels, owls, raccoons, bears, muskrats, gnomes, spiders, chipmunks, cats, and other creatures who have jobs, homes, businesses, hobbies, disagreements, traditions, and opinions.

    The result is a character-driven fictional world combining comedy, storytelling, satire, community news, slice-of-life humor, and cozy fantasy.

    If you enjoy funny podcasts, fictional radio shows, audio sitcoms, cozy fantasy, talking animals, woodland creature stories, quirky characters, imaginative worldbuilding, and humorous storytelling, pull up a chair and stay awhile.

    Mind the squirrels.

    Send us Fan Mail

    Wolf's journey through Three Pines Junction takes an unexpected turn when he meets Sprocket, a Sasquatch and Guardian of the North Woods.

    In this Fifth Tuesday Bonus Special, Wolf follows the trails from the West Woods through Ponder Lake and toward Fennelpin Mountain, meeting some of the unusual creatures who call the Junction home along the way. He learns about Moss Ball, discovers a particularly interesting stick, and starts thinking seriously about whether this woodland community might be a place where a wandering coyote could finally settle down.

    The Lone Wolf is a coyote storyteller broadcasting from Three Pines Junction, sharing stories of Sasquatch encounters, woodland adventures, unusual animal neighbors, local lore, and life on the road. It's a quiet, conversational story about friendship, community, wandering, and pondering questions that don't always have easy answers.

    The Lone Wolf is part of the Traversing Tuesdays universe, an original fiction podcast set in the town of Three Pines Junction.

    Written and produced by EmKay. All characters, dialogue, stories, and fictional locations are original creations. Voice and production tools are used to support performance and sound design.

    The Renaissance Fair is coming to Three Pines Junction, and Sparky's Tavern is getting crowded. Out-of-town visitors are arriving. Local creatures are adjusting to new faces and some aren't happy about it.

    Trina has some interesting merchandise that has a stranger intrigued. And Sparky has a few rules about what you can bring into his bar.

    Meanwhile, Trina returns with another collection of questionable treasures, Iris the Barred Owl shares what she has been reading, and the usual assortment of Three Pines Junction announcements somehow manages to become increasingly complicated.

    There's also a new song from Imaginary Mascots. Whether that's good news remains to be determined.

    Join us for another night at Sparky's Tavern on Tuesdays After Dark, the nighttime broadcast from Three Pines Junction.

    In this episode:

    Tricky Trina's Trash to Treasure
    Trina goes looking for forgotten treasures and finds more than she bargained for.

    The Night Owl Bookworm
    Iris reviews three books and considers some listener mail.

    Live from Sparky's Tavern
    The Renaissance Fair is approaching, and things are getting busy around town.

    Three Pines Junction Announcements
    Transportation changes, job openings, road conditions, and other important local information.

    Live Music
    Imaginary Mascots perform their latest song, Cardboard Satellite.

    And, as always, there are creatures, questionable decisions, fictional advertising, and whatever else happens when everyone gathers at Sparky's after dark.

    Tuesdays After Dark is part of the Traversing Tuesdays universe, an original fiction podcast set in the town of Three Pines Junction.

    Written and produced by EmKay. All characters, dialogue, stories, and fictional locations are original creations. Voice and production tools are used to support performance and sound design.

    The Horse Head Incident — Trina the Raccoon shows up to Sparky's Tavern wearing a rubber horse head mask she rescued from a dumpster, and nothing at Sparky's is ever quite the same. Between an increasingly unhinged pun war with a local opossum, a sponsor read for "bougie" woodland snacks, and Tricky Trina's Trash to Treasure segment (starring props left behind the community theater after their production of Princess and the Pickle), this episode of Tuesdays After Dark delivers peak small-town absurdist comedy.

    Also featured: Iris the Barred Owl delivers a scathing, hilarious book review on The Night Owl Bookworm segment, listener mail sparks further discussion, and several businesses compete for the attention of Three Pines Junction's nocturnal audience.

    This episode is a particularly good introduction to the stranger side of Three Pines Junction: talking animals, fictional local businesses, absurd community events, character-driven comedy, and a nighttime tavern where just about anything can happen.

    Traversing Tuesdays is a cozy comedy fiction podcast presented as fictional local public radio from the whimsical woodland community of Three Pines Junction. The Tuesday News Network brings listeners fictional news, community stories, quirky advertisements, and unforgettable recurring characters.

    Tuesdays After Dark takes that same fictional world into the nighttime, broadcasting from Sparky's Tavern for the creatures who come out after sunset.

    Perfect for listeners who enjoy comedy fiction podcasts, scripted audio fiction, talking animal stories, small-town radio parody, absurdist comedy, cozy fantasy, character-driven storytelling, and fictional communities with their own strange rules.
