The Darwin Detail

Welcome Back to the Void and Season Five! We're exploring the undiscovered country for our season premiere. Four stories about people in states of transition, from the known to the unknown; Two grim reapers contemplate the meaning of a beached whale on the Oregon, an much meme'd anglerfish tells all, a couple's date night at home takes a decidedly manic turn, and finally a young girl attempts to escape the trappings of growing up by literally phasing through a security fence. It's a massive episode with some of our best segments ever so naturally we asked synth goth pop outfit MAKE WASTE making their void debut. New original music by CLaudio and the best damn ensemble of actors to ever trip through the void. Welcome back, everyone. The void has missed you.
