I love it so much -- there are a whole series of things where (for example) you go "Oh yeah, of course the tape recorder keeps being accidentally left on and catching plot-relevant workplace conversations, this has to happen because it's an audio podcast" and then it turns out that no, this is something odd that's happening in-world, for reasons.

They take all these things which are necessary for it to function as an audio podcast and make them part of the world-building.
