Summary
The chapter opens in the format of a Netflix documentary or series. A dark screen gradually reveals the interior of a recording studio, with on-screen text identifying the audio as a recording from Alix Summer’s podcast dated 20 June 2019.
Alix Summer speaks to a woman named Josie, checking whether Josie is comfortable before beginning. To test the sound quality, Alix asks Josie to describe what Josie had for breakfast, and Josie gives a simple, specific answer: toast with jam and peanut butter, plus tea with milk.
As the camera lingers on studio details such as audio levels, headphones, and an empty coffee cup, Alix confirms the sound is good. Alix counts down and introduces the podcast episode as “something a little different,” after which the audio fades and the opening credits begin.
