Incredible opening line and scene leading up to "For a moment, it felt unfair—as if I had stepped into the role of bully, a role my brother had mastered." And then it's revealed that the POV character is relaying the story to a therapist.

I think the prose is a bit overembellished in places; for example the first sentence of the second part. But the story is exciting, and I love how it doesn't linger in one place for too long. The fact that it revolves around a podcast is also pretty awesome. I'd be interested in reading more.
