Never Post’s producers are Audrey Evans, Georgia Hampton and The Mysterious Dr. Firstname Lastname. Our senior producer is Hans Buetow. Our executive producer is Jason Oberholtzer. The show’s host is Mike Rugnetta.

There is no promise like the present
though the present’s not promise at all.
The grifter flashes a glimmer like it was
a sure thing. Clinging to these turns
blindsides what’s before the eye, a fist
behind dice. I want distraction even
more than you, but both of us lost
the duel when our seconds went missing.

Excerpt of Against Hope By Charles Bernstein
