Small Town Absurd: Recent Episodes
Appleseed Special Reserve Media
1984: In Humpfoot, Oklahoma, no secret is kept for long. That’s what happens when you live in a small rural town where the most exciting thing is an infrequent visit from Tommy Sharp’s Model T. But when things start going weird for a group of 30-something losers it’s easy for the yokels to blame it on the Commies or the Gub’mint. But what exactly is going on? And why is the ex-star linebacker’s little sister acting so weird?
