Review - Teleportation Device

This is Januae's review of the teleportation device. Until the review gets away from him. This episode is not explicit. Written, produced, and performed by David S. Dear David is an Audible Approved Producer produces and performs in numerous audiobooks as well as the audio drama A Ninth World Journal and performs in several other audio dramas. http://ninthworldjournal.com TRANSCRIPT I am Januae, and this is my review of the teleportation device. I cannot give it a favorable review, as it is only good for one use. Perhaps my negative review should be for the Veilwardens and the Ustiliator that caused me to jaunt randomly. The ritual they performed on me made things worse. In fact, I would give jaunting randomly a very unfavorable review. It is dangerous and unpredictable. I do not recommend it. Jaunting randomly: I give it one star.   This episode of Listen, Rinse, Repeat was written, produced, and performed by David S. Dear of A Ninth World Journal Kevin MacLeod at Incompetech.com

It felt as though something was scritch-scratching away upon my eardrum like a pen upon paper. I tried to clear it, but the sensation would not cease. The longer it continued, the more I was certain that some living thing was burrowing into me, scritch-scratching away at my flesh and my sanity. The doctor who checked said my inner ear is inflamed, but clear. No foreign object, no thing, is there. I should be reassured. The prickling has subsided to no more than an occasional flicker of a whisper. I twitch now and then. The dreams, though. What do I do about the dreams? The damp earth between my sheets? The soil between my teeth? Sorry, what was I saying? Oh, I remember now. Yes. I was just asking: Would you like to see my garden?

I don’t blame you if you don’t. It’s me: Madonna Spectacle. I’ve had a long life. Some parts have been really hard. MINDY, IN THE PAST A wheelchair isn’t the end of the world! Listen, I’m gonna sew you a costume which comes off when you spin the wheelchair around, like one spin and your whole outfit is different! It’s gonna be magic! MADONNA SPECTACLE, NOW OLD Some parts have been very easy. FELIPE My folks threw me out. I don’t have anywhere to go. Maybe I can... live with you for a while? MADONNA SPECTACLE, IN THE PAST Of course you can. MINDY, IN THE SAME PAST For as long as you want. MADONNA SPECTACLE, IN THE PAST If you want us to, we can be your parents. MADONNA SPECTACLE, NOW OLD But all has to come to an end. I’ve seen my kids fly off, to make new and better lives for themselves. And now, it’s my turn. Madonna Spectacle’s final performance. Tearing off layer after layer of fantastic dresses, and when the final one comes off... there’s no one there. Just emptiness. And then the lights go out. THE END Credits This episode of Listen, Rinse, Repeat was performed by Kiba Walker as Madonna Spectacle, Ditrie Marie Bowie as Mindy, Matheus Carneiro as Felipe and David S Dear as Madonna Spectacle, old. It was written by Øystein Brager and produced by Karin Heimdahl with original music by Anthony Luis Sanchez.

MINDY, ARRIVING AT HER FOLKS Is he already here? What do you think about him? MADONNA SPECTACLE Meanwhile, her mom has been so convinced by my straight-dude charms, combined with a glass or two too much, she’s decided to come on to me by locking the both of us in a broom closet. MINDY, ARRIVING AT HER FOLKS Dad – where’s mom and Maddy – I mean, Charlie? MADONNA SPECTACLE I escape in the nick of time, Mindy’s dad catches her calling me “Maddy”, and the cat’s finally out of the bag. Mindy’s mom is ticked off, but we put her to bed. Mindy’s dad really likes me. That night, in the bedroom, Madonna Spectacle does a private rendition of “Crazy For You”, only for Mindy, the most special person in my whole entire life.
