Pablo Woke in the Late Afternoon May 19, 2026 01:39 Explore all episodes and download from the full library: https://eattmag.com/free-podcasts-download/ Pablo woke in the late afternoon. For a moment he was not sure if he had been sleeping for one hour or many hours, and the light had changed while he was asleep. He remembered the dream only in pieces: A young woman, A book on the table, An open window, A page turning in the wind, And sea

He remembered it was a cold winter's day, and she was standing in the garden, looking out across the field. She had told him that: The fifth season was the season that came after winter and before spring

It began to slowly move the land, millions of li

It was almost as if it were listening to the wind. Pablo was fast asleep and could not hear the snake in the grass, but he could almost

The Story of the 5th Season Apr 21, 2026 02:21 When Pablo was dreaming, he dreamt of a house. He'd been to this house before. It was a very beautiful house, and it had felt like a place that he knew was home, once, long ago. When he walked through the house, he was thinking, as he looked out the window, to try and see the open field below. But then suddenly he appeared in the kitchen, and he was sitting at the table, drinking a warm cup of hot

The Wind That Turns Apr 14, 2026 01:59 Pablo lay stretched out along the bench. His body relaxed. His legs extended. He closed his eyes. And once again… He drifted into sleep. In his dream, he could sense something moving. A strange wind. It moved across the land. Over the hills. Through the desert. Across the tops of a rainforest. Then down through a river gorge. Flowing toward the place where the river met the sea. And then… Out acro

The Bench and the Dream Apr 7, 2026 02:12 Pablo walked slowly along a quiet path. He had taken off his shoes and socks earlier, leaving them behind near the rocks, choosing instead to walk barefoot. The path beneath his feet felt smooth. As if many people had walked it before him, shaping it gently over time. With each step, he could feel it softly pressing into the bottom of his heels, almost like a quiet massage. The surface was warm

The Valley below Mar 31, 2026 02:32 When Pablo stood up again, he looked down to the valley below. The sand on his shoulders and arms blew off in the light breeze. The valley stretched quietly out below a wide basin of colour and sharrow. From where he stood he could see the deep reds, soft yellows and hints of blue and green. As if somehow someone had sprinkled wildflowers magically across the valley floor. As if the earth had som

The Long Grass Mar 24, 2026 03:02 The long grass moves slowly across the hill in wide rolling waves from the bottom up through the middle towards the top corner as if the land was almost breathing itself sweeping up towards the top of the hill and towards the lighthouse. Pablo stood for a moment struck by the sheer beauty of it. The hillside was alive. Thousands and thousands of blades of grass moving and rising together. It was a

The Ancient lighthouse Mar 17, 2026 02:36 It was ancient looking, so ancient from where he stood. He couldn't make out the shapes that were carved into the sides. Though he imagined they could have been of creatures that may have clung there over time. Mollusks, large seashells from sea snails that had been worn by years of sea and wind over the time. You could just see at the very top a kind of strange spike up into the air that looked

The Forgotten lighthouse Mar 10, 2026 02:19 When he looked up the hill, he could see a windy old road that climbed up slowly into the distance, meandering its way up towards what looked like a large cluster of trees, almost a forest in a way. He wondered why there wasn't a lighthouse here. The sea was blowing rough enough, and he knew this as the Shipwreck Coast. He had heard the stories. Surely there would have been a place for one up her

The Climb Mar 3, 2026 02:27 Pablo climbed carefully up the steps, his feet searching for the worn holes in the rocks. The stone was cold beneath his skin, his feet almost wrapped around each rock as he slowly made his way to the top, every now and then brushing against a sharp shell. He moved slowly, feeling each step, grabbing the next rock as he finally reached the top. And there at the top, the ghost of an old platform.

The Lighthouse Feb 24, 2026 02:10 Pablo could see the clouds very clearly, in the pool in the rocks and then he could see a strange shape, like a straight shape reflecting from the clouds. He looked up to the sky, and he couldn't see these straight shapes. Strange he thought maybe it was a beam from an old hut on top of the rocks Maybe not The mast of an old ship that has been smashed against the rocks, where the sailors had scr

Catching Breath Feb 17, 2026 02:59 His heart was beating so deeply. He felt like a dog. He was panting and couldn't catch his breath. Trying to slow down. Tried to slow down. He couldn't. His mind was racing, his heart was beating, his thoughts were spinning. He looked down and saw a small crab sitting in a pool, a tiny pool in the rocks. He closed and opened his eyes. He would focus on the crab. He tried to slow his breath down wi

The Escape Feb 10, 2026 03:00 He was close to the rocks, and he could see the surface. The light from the surface changed quickly up and down as the waves were rising quickly up against the rocks. And then he saw it. The rope. Then again the rope appeared at this time, for some reason. He reached out and grabbed it. He could feel coral wrapped around the rope. He pulled tight, and the rope stopped moving. It stayed taut. It wa

The Shark Feb 3, 2026 03:53 Pablo moved away from the shark as quickly and quietly as he could. He knew he needed to stay calm. He understood that he shouldn't make any sudden movements. No frantic paddling. He also knew his other option was to maximize his size, that if the shark was passing by, if he stayed vertical and looked as large as possible. But he was not thinking of that just right now. And he knew he needed to ke

The Rope Jan 27, 2026 01:13 Something like a rope passed him again. It was not tied to anything. It was floating. It moved slowly, back and forward, like seaweed. Pablo watched it for a moment. It did not feel dangerous. He reached out and pushed the rope away from his body. He pushed it to the side so he could start to go up. His breath was running out. His chest felt tight. He needed to go back to the surface. Then he saw

Learning the Water Jan 20, 2026 01:13 Pablo had only learned to swim recently. He was in his early twenties. It took him a long time. He worked full time. He also had a part-time job. That day, he swam out from the shore and dived down. He wanted to see the rocks he had heard about under the water. He did not know how deep the ocean was there. Even close to land, it could be very deep. He felt like he was about five meters down. He di

Pablo — The Kitchen Jan 13, 2026 01:15 Perhaps he thought when he got home he could hang his wooden spoons up, although at the moment they were sitting in a great big blue jar—which seemed to be the right place, as then he could just grab them beside the air fryer, you know, that kind of thing, when he was cooking on the run. This was making him hungry now, thinking about all these wooden spoons and the boat made of wooden spoons. He w

The boat made of wooden spoons Jan 6, 2026 02:52 After his swim, Pablo decided that he was going to sit down and do some writing. And when he sat down, he suddenly remembered that he had a dream the other night about a boat, and the boat was made from wooden spoons. Why would a boat be made of wooden spoons? That was an interesting idea. They must have been all glued together because the boat was bobbing along quite well in the water, and there

It was a beautiful, warm, sunny day. And though he was feeling hungry, he decided first he needed to get himself a nice drink. Normally, he wouldn't drink coffee after about 2:00 PM as he felt somehow made it more difficult for him to sleep. He was thinking about his fav

Pablo in the park Jun 29, 2023 06:22 Pablo sat down on the stool in the kitchen and closed his eyes to think back for a moment. He remembered a few weeks ago being in the park near his apartment, sitting on a bench in the sun and noticing a small blackbird. "It can't be the same one," he thought. Then he remembered that was the day it rained. He had gone for a walk, turned his phone on silent, and sat on a park bench. One of his tea

Pablo and the black bird May 30, 2023 06:04 Just as Pablo turned towards the kitchen window, he saw a bird. A little Blackbird. The little Blackbird sitting on the windowsill had small bright yellow eyes. The bird seemed to be looking almost curiously at Pablo for some reason. As if he was wondering what Pablo was about to do. Pablo stood very still. He did not want to see the bird fly away. It was not every day that Pablo had a litt

Sometimes new dreams wake up Mar 28, 2023 03:20 When Pablo woke up from his dream. He suddenly realized something. He had been writing his dreams down now for many years on a Google Doc on his phone. Just little things that he could remember. Stories. People. Places. Points in time. And he had begun to realize that there were certain themes. Almost. Storyboards. Sometimes it was if he was traveling along in a dream and he would drop into anothe

The name of the word was Petrichor The word Petrichor means The earthy smell when rain falls on dry soil. He suddenly felt very sleepy. He decided to lay down and have a nap before making his pizza. Shortly after he lay down, there was another knock at the do

Pablo opened the door Jan 30, 2023 03:04 Pablo opened the door, and standing in front of him was Sylvia. Sylvia held a small handful of things, including a small bunch of bright-green leaves. I thought you could do with some of these? She winked. I heard you were making a pizza. What is it? Pablo asked. Arugula, she said. Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ugula, she said again in her heavy accent and laughed. But where I come from, boy, we call it

Knock, knock, knock. Went the door Sep 29, 2022 01:27 Pablo looked up and looked around, catching a glimpse of himself in the mirror; ugh, he gasped He was still in his pajamas The kitchen was a total mess; he quickly ran and closed the bathroom door, where a wet towel was hanging and his shaving gear another disaster area, he thought to himself. Running to his bedroom, he jumped out of his pajamas and into some track pants. He grabbed a jumper

Kitchen hacks Aug 24, 2022 04:19 Pablo had a busy day and realized he was getting hungry when he was thinking about his pizza. Um, he thought, what can he make quickly and easily? Something crisp and crunchy with some flavor. He had some eggs in the fridge with a blue colored shell they were a mix, the women had told him at the market but he was in a rush and did not have time to ask what they were a mix of. They always laugh

Any room for Mushrooms Jul 30, 2022 02:00 Is there any room for mushrooms? That night, Pablo had a funny dream. He was sitting up on the magic carpet. Flying above and through the clouds When he looked down, he realized the carpet was made of pizza, and he was sitting on top of a large slice of pepperoni. Large leaves of green lettuce stuck to the pizza, blew with melted cheese. Blew up, up into the air Giant wheels of fried oni
