Private Thoughts

The Truth makes short, cinematic stories meant to be listened to closely, like short films for your ears. Each episode is a brand new story&nbsp;with a new cast of characters, and a whole new world to explore.&nbsp;Some are suspenseful, others funny, or shocking, or uplifting.&nbsp;What you’re guaranteed is incredible performances,&nbsp;thoughtful writing, and detailed, immersive sound design&nbsp;that pulls you in and never lets go. 

If you're new, some good starting places are: The Joke, Operation Skillshot, Here I Am, Dark End of the Mall, Silvia's Blood, or Can You Help Me Find My Mom. 

Listening with headphones is recommended!
