Accidentally wrote four autofiction books. Slid from narrative into monologue—not stream-of-consciousness, more like speech-speed meaning performance. Trained my voice into AI, produced a shit-ton of pieces. Had too many. Needed a place to dump them. Saw a sign that said “Beware, Vicious Dog!” Misread it. Named the podcast Danger, Vicious Dog. Didn’t fix it. Just kept going. Queer. Cosmic. Sarcastic. Cheap. Accidentally committed to the bit. Some voice and art is AI... I don't know how I feel about that... so I'm working on figuring it out... how I feel.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-19T20:18:09.153413+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/danger-vicious-dog-7683978"},"episode":{"title":"E5: Sepulveda Effigy; S6: Relish the Re-Leash","slug":"e5-sepulveda-effigy-s6-relish-the-re-leash","published_at":"2026-05-10T16:12:23+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/danger-vicious-dog-7683978/e5-sepulveda-effigy-s6-relish-the-re-leash","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/danger-vicious-dog-7683978","url":"https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/testtubebaby/episodes/E5-Sepulveda-Effigy-S6-Relish-the-Re-Leash-e3j5m1b","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/10bfde498/podcast/play/119772651/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2026-4-10%2F423862149-44100-2-70b48b2c0f606.m4a","summary":"A city spends forty years preventing a subway from reaching its wealthy beach community because they fear “outsiders,” then spends the next forty years complaining that no one can afford to work in their restaurants, clean their homes, or care for their aging bodies. The train finally arrives empty. You install hundreds of security cameras across sand dunes to monitor danger, but every danger enters through the part of yourself the cameras can’t see. Meanwhile the footage captures hours of beautiful sunsets nobody watches. A man spends his life trying to become authentic, only to realize that the performance of authenticity has become the most rehearsed role he’s ever played. The audience applauds his vulnerability on schedule. Two dachshunds threaten to ruin a podcast by barking at the exact moment the podcaster is trying to explain the illusion of interruption. Their barking becomes the most honest thing in the episode. Who, exactly, interrupted whom? A community fights against dense housing because they want to “preserve the character” of the neighborhood, while simultaneously mourning the disappearance of artists, weirdos, young people, and spontaneity. The preserved character becomes a mausoleum wearing sunglasses. Someone spends decades learning how to explain themselves perfectly, only to discover that the people who love them never required an explanation, and the people who demanded one had already made up their minds. A raised subway line reaches the end of the track and launches gracefully into the desert because no one could agree on where the city should go next. Urban planning as Greek tragedy. You carry wheelbarrows full of surveillance equipment across wooden planks laid over dunes so unstable they erase your footprints by morning.
