Seeking Tanis. Runner Available.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

A mysterious ad on Craigslist and an otherwise-unmemorable short story published in <\/span>Strange Worlds<\/span><\/i> magazine called <\/span>Where Is Tanis<\/span><\/i> is the inspiration for <\/span>Tanis<\/span><\/i>, the podcast.<\/span><\/p>\n

From the creators of the <\/span>Black Tape<\/span><\/i> podcast, <\/span>Tanis<\/span><\/i> follows the same eerie documentary-style format, where fact is mixed with fiction until you have no idea what\u2019s real and what\u2019s not.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s difficult to explain this podcast, because the entity called \u201cTanis\u201d that Nic is looking for doesn\u2019t exist. Yet, Nic keeps finding Internet conspiracy theories that point to Tanis being real.<\/span><\/p>\n

(It\u2019s not real. I\u2019m sure. Almost.)<\/span><\/p>\n

And, that\u2019s the crux of why this podcast is so addicting. You know in your heart you\u2019re listing to fiction. It\u2019s just the documentary side of it is so well done, you find that you\u2019re second guessing yourself.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

(Or maybe it\u2019s just me.)<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, what I\u2019m not crazy about is how complicated the storyline is. There are a lot of different threads that on the surface don\u2019t seem like they\u2019re going to come together, so there\u2019s a lot to keep track of. And if auditory isn\u2019t how you learn best, it can be a stretch.<\/span><\/p>\n

(However, the <\/span>Tanis<\/span><\/i> website has a place for notes, so that can help if you\u2019re more of a visual learner.)<\/span><\/p>\n

All in all, it\u2019s definitely worth your time to give it a listen.<\/span><\/p>\n
