Hi everyone, I’m cecilbaldwin-fan, and I’ll be taking over here. I thought I’d introduce myself. I’m 36, Finnish, and a huge fan of WTNV and the people behind it. My main blog (which I don’t really use) is maisie-whimsie, so you might see that url too. You know I wrote the post when you see the icon with my cat next to the blog icon.

I make transcripts for a living. Welcome to Night Vale is everything my work files are not: good quality recordings, calmly and clearly spoken, and fun to listen to. Researchers have a lot to learn from podcasters.

I’ve been a WTNV fan for three years, and this blog has been a great resource for me and the whole fandom. This is the oldest and most extensive fan blog I know. Since all fan blogs are hobby projects, very few of them last. ahnsael has done a huge amount of work with these transcripts. It shows true commitment.

As for the blog format, I won’t be making any changes. I will provide the transcripts here, while ahnsael continues to handle uploads on other platforms. If you notice no difference, I’m doing my job well.

Just a note on time zones: WTNV comes out every 1st and 15th at midnight New York time, which is 7 AM my time. I’m not a morning person, so don’t expect an instant transcript. I should get to each episode 7-8 hours after it airs. Also, English isn’t my native tongue, so corrections are appreciated.

Huge thanks to ahnsael for all his hard work and for letting me join the blog. I’m proud and happy to keep this thing going. See you on the 1st!
