Before the calls, the static, and the stories that keep you up at night—there was just a late-night group chat, a few eerie internet threads, and a feeling none of us could shake.
In this special behind-the-signal episode, creator Robert Barba shares how The Dark Line began: from internet rabbit holes to a podcast no one expected to build.
Sixty downloads from around the world might not seem like much—but when those signals come from California , South Carolina, Washington state. Across the northern border to Alberta and Prince Edward Island. Across the Atlantic to the United Kingdom and France. Even reaching the Russian Federation.… it means someone's listening.
This is the story of how the line opened.
