“my child is fine” your child bought a $30 microphone and is making a fiction podcast

[boombox-fuckboy]

Do you know any podcasts with transfeminine main characters?

Apologies for the delay. I have a few:

Between Heartbeats: (Urban Fantasy) In a city of incredible abilities and mundane struggle, we follow Sundiata, a time-manipulator struggling to stay employed. During a a quick break from waiting tables to go help in an emergency, she instead finds herself caught in a bizzare mystery. Unfortunately release seems to have stalled following the first episode, but I'm eagerly awaiting its return.

Inn Between: (Fantasy, Adventure) What the adventuring heroes get up to at the tavern, between the grand adventures. Cleverly fills the listener in on the adventures using "previously on" and "next time on" segments. You'll need to wait (or jump) to Season 3 to meet our transfem lead, but she is an absolute delight.

Interference: (Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Romance) A human tabletop podcaster and an orc researcher get their broadcast signals crossed between worlds, and start a dialogue. Cross-reality research, and a budding romance, ensue.

The Magnus Protocol: (Horror) Seeking employment, Sam gets a job working with his friend Alice for a bizzare little government office. The work? Night shifts listening to, and then cataloguing, bizzare and unsettling material trawled from the internet. Despite Alice's warnings, Sam may be getting a little too invested.

The Night Post: (Supernatural) Concerning the conscripted nighttime couriers/postal workers of Gilt City, and the otherworldy encounters they have on the job.

PSST: Paranatural Support Services Team: (Supernatural) Struggling with a supernatural entity or haunting encounter? The PSST's got you covered. Meet The Agent at the other end of the phone as she gives advice, unravels mysteries, and tries to work out just how long it's been since she went home.

The Silt Verses: (Horror) In a modern world where gods are abundant, frequently both commercialised and restricted, two devotees of an outlawed river god go on a pilgrimage. You'll meet the character in question a few episodes in.

Breathing Space: (Sci-fi, Space Western, Anthology) Included more as a special mention (as this is an anthology and the leads change every episode), Breathing Space is an array of stories set in the early age of space exploration that leans hard into the "Western" part of "Space Western". A not-insignificant number of the stories feature trans characters. If you don't vibe with the first story, do me a favour and listen to the second before you bail.

Additions are, of course, always welcome.

Sexiest Podcast Character 2024 — Scripted Bracket — Round 1

Propaganda

Sister Carpenter (The Silt Verses):

The Best one-liners and mic drops around, nothing sexier than a crisis of faith, unwavering commitment to saving everyone has all the panties dropping, certified milf

She's tall. She's aroace. She was raised in a cult and got sent on a pilgrimage for said cult and told her god to go fuck himself. She loves pancakes.

Val Torres (The Night Post):

She has lots of knives, she steals mail, she's a jerk who loves her friends, she's some sort of conduit for supernatural forces, she's even trans!!!

[haveyouheardthispodcast]

[yetwesleep]

[aspeccharactersoftheday]

Don't know anyone here? Pick one and go listen!

Am I missing your favourite? Are they from a horror? Let me know!

Where is Sister Carpenter? She is too powerful and would skew the results. But rest assured, she will be appearing in an upcoming poll.

[sammy-the-haze]

alright gay horror nerds- what podcast should I listen to next?

What I’ve already listened to, in the tags

I’m considering: dreamboy, hello from the hallowoods, the storage papers, malevolent

I really don’t know what to start with and I find it kinda overwhelming. I’ve heard good stuff of all of those but not direct recommendations.

[vestaclinicpod]

Love audio drama?

Also: secrets and spreading positivity?? 

Send your favourite indie audio drama a secret confession of love this valentines! 💌

See below for an example of what I’m hoping to send out to some of the best and most beloved podcasters on 14th Feb!
