Dressed in the dark is a show that asks “Who taught you how to talk to yourself?” Each episode explores some aspect of our inner world. Where do all those voices come from? Why do we even have an inner voice? New episodes appear every other Saturday. DITD is a Make it Weird production.

    Dressed In The Dark Episode 45:Two Very Short Films I didn't like last episode. I didn't make the point I wanted to, I rushed the whole thing, and a bunch of other reasons. I like doing this podcast, even though I don't know what to do with it. It struggles to find its voice, as I struggle to find mine. Here's Two Very Short Films, I hope you enjoy them.
