Transcript of the intro:

Hi, I'm Tal Minear, executive producer of Regarding Dracula. I'm here today to tell you about another audio drama I think you'd like. The Land Whale Murders is an Alternate History Satire about Birders, Murders, and Confectionery Capers. The show is inspired by real events and people but with the silliness and absurdity cranked up to eleven, making for a surreal and amusing audio experience. I love how funny and weird The Land Whale Murders is. You have no idea where it's going to go or who's going to show up, and it makes for a really enjoyable listen. You can find and listen to The Land Whale Murders at www.landwhalepod.com or anywhere you listen to podcasts! Keep listening to hear the first episode of season two, which starts a new arc of the show.
