We all ignore the trench
Living in a land of horrible absurdity for more than a year will give you some ideas. When you read Russian news every day you can't help but think of horror podcasts' universes. Politicans declaring war with Satan, lots of people gleefully diving back to Soviet times, school teachers and parents reporting children to the forces, mass hysteria in media about "Ukrainian fascists" and 1000 and 1 reasons why Ukraine must be destroyed, declaring people soldiers at the moment the writ is sent.
So I had this idea about a fan podcast (is it a thing?) in WTTNV universe, a broadcast of a local station, Nulgorsk.fm. A couple of hosts are chatting, reading local news, taking calls from listeners, and casually painting a picture of absolute insanity around. And at the end of each episode there's a question for the dear listeners - what is fiction and what is the absolutely real Russian news.
And a second one, set in TMA universe. a collection of statements and episodes from local institute (with an unpronounceable abbreviation of course) similar to the Magnus institute. The employees are investigating various cases and trying to sort out genuine encounters from general madness around. And damn, what a job.
