Do You Have a Minute for Equality?

I listened to one of the new episodes of The Truth. The episode I listened to was called "Do You Have a Minute for Equality?" and it was a part of their election horror series. Definitely intrigued me to listen in the first place. There's an incredible use of background noise for creepiness. As soon as it started, I had feeling of intense tension and anxiety. They used just a few simple tones for the background sound and it added a level of creepiness that definitely made the horror of the piece come out. I couldn't help but think that without the background sound, the piece wouldn't be creepy at all. It's incredible to me the potential sound has, not only to tell stories, but to convey emotions.
