CRANK-FM VOLUME 7

Stories include:

Superheroes Ain't What They Used to Be
An off‑world superhero installs himself as a dictator in a developing nation, dazzling the locals until the generals realize he's not invincible. They shoot him out of the sky in a brutal coup, proving that "heroes" cause more damage than they prevent.

Psychic Repeaters Live Among Us
A break‑in exposes a suburban family that never actually lived in their own home. Footage reveals the father is an off‑world psychic repeater broadcasting conformity into the neighborhood. His synthetic family dissolves in lavender Epsom salt before he escapes to another Earth.

The Demon That Haunts You
Trauma births a minor demon that lives inside the human psyche, striking as sudden waves of regret and flashbacks. It grows when fed negativity and weakens when the host creates new, positive experiences. A DIY demon hunter demonstrates a device that can extract it.

Modern Ritualistic Human Sacrifice
From ancient offerings to modern algorithms, the story shows how humans still sacrifice pieces of themselves-now through attention, engagement, and emotional energy fed into digital systems. The altar just changed shape.

Mechanical Masticating Trees
A forest on an alternate Earth evolves into a predatory ecosystem where trees grind, chew, and digest anything that wanders too close. CRANK‑FM investigates the phenomenon and uncovers the off‑world contamination that turned a peaceful biome carnivorous.

Time‑Stealing Technology From Another Planet
A strange device appears on terrestrial Earth, draining hours from people's lives without their awareness. The host tracks the tech back to an off‑world civilization that harvests stolen time as a resource - and warns listeners that the devices may already be spreading.

A Tree Fort in the Multiverse
A child's simple tree fort becomes a multiversal junction point after a dimensional seam opens inside it. Visitors, creatures, and echoes from other Earths slip through, forcing CRANK‑FM to intervene before the "fort" becomes a permanent gateway.

Funding an Off‑World Revolution
A rebel faction from another Earth secretly solicits money, weapons, and tech from unsuspecting humans. Their revolution is real - but their intentions aren't. CRANK‑FM uncovers the scam and exposes how off‑world insurgents exploit terrestrial naivety.

A Failed Insurrection
An attempted coup on an alternate Earth spills into ours when the losing faction tries to regroup through the membrane. CRANK‑FM documents the chaos, the political fallout, and the off‑world operatives who underestimated how quickly their plot would collapse.
