TM Morgan's "Telethon"
from The Dead Tree Society Podcast
It's 1982, and middle-aged Tommy Liplet has been the comedian in residence for Pittsburgh's WPXT, channel 20, hosting the local telethon for years. The telethon has been, as far as anyone -- including Tommy -- knows, funding the Hauser House, a local charity for sick children. But that isn't the telethon's main purpose. No, it's main purpose is something much more sinister. Late one evening deep into the airing of the telethon, Tommy, strung out on coke, whose better days have already passed, is called up to his boss's office. Here he'll learn the truth about the Hauser House and what the telethon is really providing. Not for the kids, but for that which lives under the house. Tommy learns that there could be a fate worse than being replaced, and this could be his last night -- and not just as host of the telethon. www.sleyhouse.com patreon.com/sleyhousepublishing https://www.instagram.com/waynehowardstudios/ https://www.instagram.com/waynehowardmedia/
