Keep the Nightlight On: Babysitter vs. Deadly Parents

Hosts Robin and Scott read a Halloween-ready Reddit story called "Keep the Nightlight On," about babysitter Claire, an anxious boy named Jake, and a seemingly perfect family whose staged accidents— a peanut in the mash, a sparking game console, and a malfunctioning nightlight—hide a murderous plan.

The episode mixes banter and commentary as the twist unravels: Claire foils attempts on the child but is tragically killed by a dart launched from the nightlight that was meant for Jake. Short, tense, and darkly ironic, it’s a chilling listen with a sinister payoff.
