Monsters of Bureaucracy is a one-shot Podcast Jam project by Ani Rey. It follows the story of a woman experiencing that even a world where the paranormal is normalized, the methodologies and systems at play would function largely unchanged. The purpose of the work was to explore the idea of chronic pain showcased in an audio medium. Ani Rey has never released an audio fiction prior to this, despite working on them for over a year at this point. She wanted to have something of her own released, before continuing her work with Cozy AF Productions.
