Marfa Munchies: Episode 1, Saturday - Two Fires Under the Same Stars

What you see is what it is. And also what it isn't. Frida comes out late, the way Frida always comes out late, and finds Jayme already at the fire pit with a beer she isn't drinking. The Davis Mountains are a darker dark. The stars are obscene. Melissa has a pitch she wants to bring. Jayme is going to do what's responsible, which they both know is not the same word as yes. Mindy does not come to the fire. Chloe and Casandra have built their own smaller fire on the other side of the property and are laughing at something on a phone, twenty-two and twenty-eight, cataloguing the night. On the far side of the compound, a different division has their own fire going. The worlds don't touch tonight. They just burn, separately, under the same indecent stars. The phone is still on the desk in Dallas. The phone will still be there Monday. So will whatever is on it. Featured: Frida Martinez. Jayme Nichols. Casandra Cass. Chloe Dawn. The Marfa Munchies is a daily fiction podcast about a food, beverage, and lifestyle division of a creative agency between Marfa and Dallas. Episode 1 closes here.
