4.10: Juno Steel and the Stone Unturned (Part 1)

Juno Steel would really like to take the past, lock it up in a little box, and throw away the key, thank you very much. It's hard to blame him: with his childhood friend hunting him down and his recent love gone without a trace, the past is really feeling like the place where all of today's problems were born.But Juno is a detective, and even if he's decided he's done with Sasha Wire and putting Peter Nureyev on pause, curiosity will always bring him back. Now, between the journal in his pocket and Sasha's strange secret base all around him, Juno will find that the past never stays locked up for long.Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your stay.(Trigger warnings can be found at the bottom of this episode description and at the end of the transcript.)-------You can find all of our transcripts here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1OLddnnYamZuglgZc8pM2gqToPOwEBccM?usp=sharingTranscripts will come out along with the public release of the episode.On staff at the Penumbra:Kat Buckingham -- Head of Merchandise and OutreachAlice Chuang -- Head of DesignMelissa DeJesus -- Script editing teamHarley Takagi Kaner -- Co-creator, Head of Episode Development, Director, Sound designerEllison Estephan -- Promotional artistNoah Simes -- Production managerGrahame Turner -- Script editing teamKevin Vibert -- Co-creator, Head of Operations, Lead writerRyan Vibert -- Composer and performer of original musicRecorded by Mertz at The Bridge Sound & Stage--------Attribution: Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (3.0) license.http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/legalcode"Kind of Girl" by Jeris, featuring spinningmerkaba:“Drone Ambience, A” by Moulaythami https://freesound.org/people/Moulaythami/sounds/546360/“Sci Fi Shield Noise” by azraelecho https://freesound.org/people/azraelecho/sounds/450185/---------Trigger warnings:- Violence and threats of violence- Drug use- Depiction of illness- Enclosed, claustrophobic spaces- Violent pursuit by governments/police- Racism/xenophobia- Deception- Brief references to self harm and suicide.For early and ad-free episodes, production scripts, commentary tracks, blooper reels, livestreams with the creators, and much more, you can find The Penumbra Podcast: SPECIAL EDITION at: https://thepenumbrapodcast.supercast.com(In old episodes, you will often hear us mention Patreon, which was our old platform and is no longer live.
