This week, we're recommending a show we think you should listen to: Hotel Daydream from Steven Cousler

The hotel faces some difficulties when guests complain about a peckish statue out in the garden. Also there is a shortage of blood for the vampire clients, a supply chain breakdown of eggs, a discussion of the dietary nature of flies, and one guest who can't stay away from his exploding fruit. Just another day in the hospitality business for the odd and incorporeal.
