Synopsis:

Terrible tales for traumatic times. 

Pressing the Flesh is a short-fiction audio zine bringing you brief tales from a world where the sins of the powerful are as cruel as they feel, and none can escape the banality of evil. Blending comedy, horror, and unknowable powers, each episode presents a new story of the embarrassing losers who hold the fate of the world in their hands and the frightened sycophants who grin while they wretch at the taste of their boots. 

Listen, delight, despair.
