One Of The Best Trucking- Centric Horror Podcasts Is Coming To TVThe podcast Alice Isn’t Dead almost doesn’t feel like a podcast sometimes—it feels more like a road trip in audio form. It’s the tale of one woman’s search for her wife Alice, where she joins up with a trucking company with bone- chilling supernatural ties. Now USA is turning it into a TV show, and a book deal is on the way, per The Washington Post. Alice Isn’t Dead was created by Joseph Fink, the creator of Welcome to Night Vale.

In it, the narrator’s search for the missing woman Alice leads her to join a trucking company that takes her across the country—both through familiar, busy places as well as all the vast emptiness in between. All the while, she feels like she’s being followed by something vile that she’s convinced must have something to do with Alice’s disappearance. It’s also one of the best descriptions of a long road trip I’ve ever heard. I might not encounter the podcast’s pungent- smelling yellow ghoul called the Thistle Man on any of my trips (I hope), but I’ve certainly been stuck in many of the in- between spaces where your only entertainment is a string of billboards, or changes in topography and vegetation. If you haven’t listened to the podcast itself, it’s all but a perfect match for long- distance travel. It was what we piped into the Le.

Mons Rally car’s makeshift audio system for long hauls across the eastern part of the country because it just fit. But if audio isn’t your preferred format, congratulations, Alice Isn’t Dead is coming to other formats to creep you out there, too. Show creator Joseph Fink is writing a novel based on the show set for a fall 2. Harper. Collins describes as a “fast- paced thriller,” the Washington Post notes. Additionally, Fink will serve as the executive producer for the television adapation of Alice Isn’t Dead, which is in the works for the USA Network, but doesn’t have a release date yet. Regardless of how you tune into the story, watch out for that Thistle Man, and remember to pay attention to all the weird details when you’re out on the open road.

New Nest Thermostat Pretty. For the first time ever, Nest has redesigned its iconic smart thermostat. The new Nest Thermostat E basically does the same stuff the old thermostat did, but it’s not black and steel any more.

It’s all white, like the front half of a classic i. Pod. Very pretty! The new Nest Thermostat E, like its predecessor, is a smart thermostat that promises to save you money by learning your habits and adjusting your air conditioner or furnace accordingly.

This round little innovation knocked people’s socks off when it came out in 2. And nobody had ever seen such a nice- looking thermostat, either.

The new “E- is- for- everybody” edition almost looks like a different gadget. The dark glossy face has been replaced with a frosted white situation that’s designed to blend in with your home. The formerly silver ring around the edge is also white now, and all the colors are nice and soft, almost like pastels. You’re supposed to notice a big difference in how the new thermostat displays information. The front glass has a matte film on the inside, so that the digital display doesn’t look so much like a computer screen. In the words of Nest’s head designer Sung Bai, it feels “like watercolor.” When the display is off, the Nest Thermostat E is just a white dot on the wall.

The aesthetic adjustment makes good sense for Nest. As other smarthome companies have played catch up and released fancy thermometers of their own, Nest has lost some of the cachet that made it turn heads back in 2.

Nest did buy Drop. Cam for half a billion dollars a couple years ago, but security cameras aren’t quite the cool factor the company needs.

Whether an all- white design with a curious frosted glass display will fill that need remains to be seen. In addition to the new design, the Nest Thermostat E comes with a pre- set schedule to save energy so you don’t have to worry about a custom setup if you don’t want to. And honestly that’s it.

The new Nest, a lot like the old Nest but prettier. Watch The Full A Ghost Story (2017) The Movie. You can buy one now on Nest’s website for $1. Nest Thermostat by the way.
