This was pretty good! Joaquin is the host of a supernatural radio show alongside his girlfriend. He was inspired to start the show by a radio broadcast he heard during a hospital stay after a near death experience with his best friend Gabriel. When Gabriel later dies in a tragic accident, Joaquin starts the show in his memory. This is twisty, dark, and creepy in some really creative ways. I will say it is incredibly slow. It takes forever to get to the supernatural stuff and all the exposition is pretty unnecessary. Pedro Pascal is a fabulous narrator though (:
