This episode originally broadcast on March 6, 2025, the original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2025/03/binary-system-podcast-447-wtnv-263-hysteria-land-beastars-and-the-oscar-nominated-animated-shorts/On tonight's recap of Welcome to Night Vale we learn that Night Vale's newest attraction, Hysteria Land, is not an amusement park, it's a theme park. And the theme is "amusement." We'd argue that the theme is also "existential dread" and "impossibly frightening." Arms inside the ride, kids, watch out for the dead animals.After that we go over this year's Oscar Nominated Animated shorts, which while not quite at the level of last year's nominations, were still very good, ranging from the bittersweet kick in the feels of In the Shadow of the Cypress, to the silly but very fun Magical Candies, to the DOWNRIGHT DISTURBING Wander to Wonder. (Which was still extremely well made but whoo boy that one's dark.)And after THAT, we've got to go over episode seven of the final season of Beastars. Well, we have to go over one scene anyway, which was hands down the most disturbing thing this show's done YES THAT SCENE THE ONE WITH THE RABBITS WHAT THE ABSOLUTE HELL.This week's outro is a clip from bROKEn dREAM by hARITON zOELooking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?
