Why My Brain Shuts Down Without Warning, What I'm Doing About It, And How It's Affecting My Podcast

Author: Darren Marlar | Weird Darkness | Full-Time Voice Actor March 30, 2026 Duration: 7:44
Last week was a lot — computer problems, server issues, a demonetization I still don't fully understand, and a health situation I've been misreading for years. I'm okay, but some things are changing, and I wanted to be straight with you about all of it.
I'll talk about what I've figured out regarding how my brain actually works, why Morning Weird Darkness isn't coming back, what's staying, what's getting simplified, and why all of this is ultimately about making sure Weird Darkness keeps going for the long haul.
Thank you for sticking with me. Truly.
