Shift 6 - Disciplinary Action

A new show from Ghost Wolf Creative Studios & the creator of Smackie's Smile Shack:Jack Hanson has started to notice the gaps.Moments slipping through the cracks. Conversations he doesn’t remember having. Entire stretches of time that vanish without explanation.At first, he tells himself it’s stress. Lack of sleep. Something manageable. But the evidence keeps stacking up. And the more he tries to piece things together, the more it feels like he’s chasing something just out of reach.So he does the only thing he can think to do.He starts recording everything.“The Blackouts” is where it begins.Created, written, and produced by Trey FalcoFeaturing Joshua Oglesby as Agent TateAdditional voices by Courtney DurnPart of the Ghost Wolf Creative NetworkWebsite: ⁠ghostwolfcreative.com⁠Subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/GWCStudiosComments, Concerns & Collabs: [email protected] Hanson Tapes: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7dcL3tIfrryFAtpsy9VNEIStream all episodes wherever you get your podcasts, or visit ghostwolfcreative.com for more.
