Rish Outfield is a writer, voice actor, and imitator of the late Sean Connery.  He's a fan of the Star Wars Trilogy, Eighties music, and those horror movies your mother insisted you not watch for fear of what they'd do to you (turns out she was right about that one).  He's the former co-host of the Dunesteef Audio Fiction Magazine podcast, and his own show, the Rish Outcast.  Born with an oddly-shaped birthmark and a lack of the vital section of the brain that produces ambition, he could still live a somewhat-full life, if only he'd get up and do something once in a w--oh no, he's gone to sleep again.

Full Disclosure:  Chupo's voice was not actually from me.  We recorded our discussion before I finished production on the story.  I wasn't happy with the way Chupo's voice sounded with my attempts, so I found some Aqualish speech sound effects from the Battlefront video games, pitched it up, and put some "squishy" sound effects underneath it.

Edgar Allan Poe was born on January 19, 1809 and became an American author, poet, editor and literary critic. Best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre, Poe was one of the earliest American practitioners of the short story and is considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre, as well as the genre of science fiction.  He was the first well-known American writer to try to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career.  Poe died in 1849,  in Baltimore, under mysterious circumstances, but he left us with a legacy of tales of wonder and woe, the marvelous and the macabre.
