Readers, once again there’s a new episode of the Asheville Bladecast out, with the help of the wonderful folks at Asheville FM. Just in time for Halloween!

In this edition, editor David Forbes and journalist Matilda Bliss delve into an array of all too-real horrors facing our town, including the false promises and twists of local election season, the rampant destruction caused by airbnb and a parade of subtle (and not so-subtle) evils from city council. While we couldn’t resist some spooky framing for the season, this episode’s all about some of the terrifying things we have to grapple with every day.

Listen here.
