Audiodrama Sunday 10/27/2024

Happy ace week! As an ace audiodrama fan, I love how asexual friendly this community is. Special shoutout to @itmeblog, I'm so not normal about Nova InCoPod.

@lostterminalpod - This show will not stop introducing new AI characters and I'm absolutely here for it. I'm such a sucker for protagonists who are fundamentally inhuman but want so badly to be people.

@asbestos4president - NEW HAM! I love this show's sense of humor so much. TTS Twitch chat being a constant part of the story is so good.

@victoriocity - I'm finally listening to the rest of season 3. The telegraph scene was incredible. I'm definitely going to check out High Vaultage once I finish the last few episodes of the season.

Starwhal Odyssey - A whole episode focused on the Usegoni! I love it! “At first, it feels pointless to try and choke out a shrimp” was great, and the psychic pressure cooker is incredible.

@worldsbeyondpod - The party is reunited! They're just ending every single episode with a cliffhanger this arc huh?

@storiesfromylelmore - The parts of this episode where Voran is bullying Rion really made me want to punch Voran. Like true anger at a fictional character. Rion getting bullied hits so much harder with the insight we have into his character now. Besides that, I love how you can infer exactly what one of Keryth's moms said to the coven heads offscreen.

@worldgonewrongpod - This episode really nailed everything I’m feeling about the election. Seeing so many people on Tumblr who are refusing to vote for Kamala is endlessly frustrating to me. I’m always curious how episodes like this will age. Need to remind myself to relisten to this after the election.

@midstpodcast - Unend has been so chill so far, and I don't trust it. I know Third Person. I'm just waiting for something horrible to happen.

Mission Rejected - Great episode, so many good moments. I really have no clue how Athena and the Admiral selling real estate in New Atlantis is going to tie in to the main season plot with O.G., his scheme seems totally harmless, which I guess is why Athena is going along with it.

@keepitsteadypod - New episode! This show is so good, then oh shit the ending. I need to give this show a full relisten from the beginning at some point. Maybe in prep for the finale.

I didn't even listen to everything new this week. Need to find time for the Kingmaker Bodyswap ASAP.

[thefringespod]

Hello wanderers it's time for a very late #AudioDramaSunday post! Starting off with @hinaypod which i am continuing my listen through and I just love the way Filipino culture is weaved into every inch of the show- it makes me think of my godfather and the things he would tell me about the Philippines and even in its horror it still feels like a comforting hug from my Nino (and then the horror hits again but ya know sometimes you gotta hug the horrors its fine)

@woebegonepod pls leave my boy Emdubya alone I'm so worried for what else is coming this season especially for him. Also worried about Tex I don't trust that he's Tex. Dylan is making me too suspicious of all of my cowboys and how suspicious and unlike themselves they're acting

Super Suits came back last week!! I didn't get to listen until this week but gods did i miss this show it's so silly and so wonderful also Noah Belachew is such a fantastic voice actor I can't wait to hear more from his character

@allatseapod continues to be a perfect bite-sized bit of horror that is voiced so wonderfully by Noah Bell who i adore everyone should listen to all at sea go do it right now

@kingmakerpod also had its triumphant return this week! Loml Ariadne Culver continues to be up to her usual tricks and i love her for it also my beloved trio of criminals are still on the run from the law but it's fine they'll be fine. Colette and Telesphore's conversation RUINED ME I love them and their friendship just like I love Eisen and Colette's friendship these three hold my whole heart and I'm so glad The Kingmaker Histories is back

@thecellarletters continues to grab me with its mysteries and with Nathan Lunsford's performance as Nate's dad. I wanna know what's happening and what's the truth of what happened to Nate's dad because every time the tape changes i get a little more intrigued and a lot more concerned

This week on the @doyoucopypod we had the release of @souloperatorpod 's Inkwell Haven piece which i also happen to be in! Tot let me scream and cry and experience the horrors! She wrote a fantastic piece and yall should check it out

Also in personal news, I can officially share that I'm taking part in @/exiledrhapsody! @kit-n-kboodl has written a wonderful and super trans/neurodivergent Frankenstein and my gods yall my episode makes me weep in nonbinary yall are gonna love what kits doing he's amazing

Here on the Fringes we released episode 28 for the public and 29 for patrons over at patreon.com/pinetreepods! Episode 28 is one of my personal favorites because it marks the return of my wonderful moss friend voiced by the even more wonderful Paul Warren go check it out!

And over on @forgedbondspod I'm so close to releasing the official trailer with the actual release date in it i just need to figure out one last thing with the Fringes timeline so I can decide when in December Forged Bonds will start. This cast is doing amazing things yall!

That's all for this week! Work has been busy but I'm starting to draft out some of the ideas I have for my next show, currently called my Untitled Murder Husbands project but it will be titled eventually I promise

Audiodrama Sunday!

What has Lou been listening to! Well, Lou has been on annual leave and either at the London Podcast Festival seeing the homies or at LARP seeing the other homies and p.s. all my friends are dead wow that was a harsh battle on Sunday..... anyway... The Serpent Under My Skin - Juicy fantasy drama in a compact package! All of that familial, religious and war trauma angst in a complex philosophical setting. Characters you want to yell "Nooo please could you not" at. Penumbra Podcast finale - STUPID JUNO STEEL AND HIS STUPID HEALTHY ROMANTIC BOUNDARIES. The Black Tapes - Every now and again I listen to things from the Middle Ages of Modern Online Audiodrama (you know, like ten years ago) and am blasted back into the days when hosts would intersperse dramatic moments with casper mattresses and bombas socks. It is interesting to listen to this and try and work out who it influenced among the shows I have enjoyed, hear the familiar musical stingers and so on. ALSO: CROWDFUNDING! The wonderful Lumi and team are crowdfunding for the next season of Wanderer's Journal which is a cosy and wholesome tale of two beans communicating by a magical journal in a fantasy world. I am "additional voices" (aka sekrits) in S2. Please do yeet them a [Local Currency] or share the crowdfunder if you can!

Underated Audio-Dramas

Asking for it

A queer contemporary take of the Goldilocks tale: about love, music and breaking the cycle of abuse. Goldie escapes a chaotic childhood only to go from a partner who starves her of love to a partner who nearly drowns her in it, before learning to be just right on her own.

My two-cents: This audio-drama I believe is a most listen for any queer person, but especially for us sapphics that want and/or have been in a relationship. I think not much is said about how women are able to harm you, I remember that AN in "Nothing Burns as Bright as You" as how as a bisexual woman the author was taught to be wary of men, but never of woman and in her experience woman often hurt her the most. I remember being in a school conference talking about domestic abuse but never did it once touch on same-gender couples.

All of this is to say that as a society we often neglect to take a real look at how abuse in queer relationships look like, how they look especially in sapphic and lesbian relationships. So I am entirely greatfull "Asking For It Does".

I am lucky enough to have never been in any situation that Goldie finds herself in and still I feel that I know her story not in short thanks to the amazing writer.

Also the MUSIC, the music in this podcast is amazing, and it is from a real band, that also exists within the podcast. How awesome is that!

Fanwars: The Empire Claps Back

Two passionate Star Wars fans on opposite sides of the Last Jedi debate argue via Skype after their favorite forum closes down. If you love Star Wars (or call yourself a proud member of any fandom), you’ll love this romantic comedy told via conversations.

My two cents: The trials and tribulations of being a POC in fandom, more importantly in starwars fandom and realizing that, "oh damm right, poc can spill the same dung as yt fans". And amazing if straight rom-com. I'll recommend it to anyone who wants to spend an afternoon laughing. It also futures the ever growing in popularity pair of a black woman with an asian man, whom is just slightly of an asshole.

Average Folks

Join your friendly neighborhood Prophetess Terra, and the dysfunctional Chieftain's family as they navigate life, love and creatures of an unusual sort.

My two-cents: I've binge-listened to the 1st season of this podcast. It has surprisingly great worldbuilding even though the story develops in a relatively small town. Terra is a great protagonist to follow around bu the characters that really stand out for me are the kids of the Chief and their own aspirations/conflicts about the place their family has on society. It is a bit politician/rich/monarch apologist though.

Deep Blue Stars

Dr. Indigo Hale treads upon a mysterious island, inhabited by nothing more than crabs and cranes, where they must find a way to make it past impostor syndrome, the strange and wonderful loneliness, and the secret nature of their life's work: the Star Shell.

My two-cents: This podcast came at the precise moment of my life so I always hold it dear to my heart. I was discovering my gender in my own terms, and as always struggling with my never ending loneliness, so Dr. Indigo Hale's rambles were a soothing salve. I'll never forget that excerpt about how they felt no-human growing up, 'cause yeah, maybe is the queernes, or the neuro-divergency but it hit spot on. If you like stories of people getting stranded on a desert-island and then creating a relationship with a non-human thing/animal to survive, you'll really love this.

[forgedbondspod]

What's this? A late #AudioDramaSunday post? With another mini series character announcement? It's my honor and privilege to announce that @delaylays is joining our mini series cast as Hestia! Delaney is the creator of @doyoucopypod and wonderful friend I'm excited to work with!

[leavingcorvat]

Tomorrow, Sleeper's journey towards Naraka City continues.

Leaving Corvat is a full cast post-modern urban fantasy audio drama about leaving the place you are from - the place you know. About leaving in spite of fear of change and self-discovery.

But the farther he travels, the more bizarre the world around him become

Audiodrama Sunday 11/17/2024

Once again I forgot to do a write-up last week, but I have my notes I took as I listened to stuff, so this is going to be a long one.

@storiesfromylelmore - This was a serious episode but I lost my shit at “mom are you a furry?”. I fully had to pause the episode to laugh out loud. Does everybody else imagine the kids’ school as looking identical to their own middle school? Like the layout, the lockers, the front office, everything.

@innbetween - I started this show and binged the first 2 seasons. I really love this show, it's so funny and has great character work. The “previously” and “next time on” for events that happen offscreen is so clever, I've never seen a story do that and I like it so much. I love how it's clearly a d&d campaign with Fina making real-world references.

Skyjacks: Couriers Call - Alba leaving destroyed me god damn. Why did they have to draw The River. The first half of this episode was brutal.

@starfallpod - Leona popped the fuck off. “I am the highest power here” was amazing. The conflict between Leona and Fel in this episode had the vibes of a really good d&d campaign.

Mall Brats - This was the “Fenton buying rats flashback” episode! Truly the best flashback of all time.

@lostterminalpod - Three AIs on the same network violates the principle created by Seth’s mom. Interested to learn more about this.

@witherburn-after-school-news - Great season finale, I really like this show. Normally horror isn't my thing, but the low stakes town stuff mixed in really makes it work for me. Can't wait for the next season!

Starwhal Odyssey - Andrathel’s introduction was cool. I love a scene in an AP where the players aren’t present. I’m so excited for the wedding, when they get to it.

@worldgonewrongpod - Time travel! That was fun. How do they know about incoming time waves? Do kids under the age of 10 blip out of existence for an hour? I need to know more of the worldbuilding!

@brimstonevalleymall - Timeskip! Damien and Raven being traded to Nisroch is so funny. After so long we finally learn the deal with Hornbloss.

@secondfiddles - More people are part of the cult! I wonder how long until we get another episode focused on Tammy

@midstpodcast - The description of the oasis was so cool. Mother Artifice is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters.

@kingmakerpod - The sound design during the rockslide was amazing, I listened to it in my car and it sounded so good. I loved Telesphore’s detective moment at the end too.

@midnightburgr - Ava speaking into Caspar's head was so funny. We never learned what the deal with this copy of earth was. Normally I hate scifi plots where Earth has great intergalactic importance for no reason (see: the entire MCU), but I trust the MB team to do it well. They definitely have so far!

Bitcherton - This show has started fully airing after a pilot to promote the Kickstarter. Katie Marovitch is so funny, I can't wait to hear more of her.

[thefringespod]

Happy #AudioDramaSunday wanderers!! Kicking things off with the most recent episode of @tellnotalespod which didn't break my heart in half this time! Wahoo! Leo actually got to have a good day and while things are definitely going to get worse I will ignore that for now

@woebegonepod said "of Tell No Tales didn't gut punch you? Allow me." The end of that episode knocked all the air from my lungs, Mr Dylan Griggs woe.begone has done it once again. I can't wait to hear the season finale this week!!

@doyoucopypod episode 3 has continued to make me. So worried. Despite @delaylays best wishes I adore Blair with my whole heart and I'm so scared of what's coming for her

This weekend saw the triumphant return of @ethicstownpod !! We have two new characters I'm already in love with and a million questions I'm chomping at the bit to find answers for. If you're not listening to Ethics Town please fix that it's so good

Here on the Fringes almost all of our odd numbered episodes have their vocal cuts done! Going to do some sound editing on episode 1 this week which I'm very excited for

And over on @forgedbondspod postcards are underway! Editing for that should be starting next month after I finish the Fringes and I'm also super excited for that!

That's all for this week! Recording some stuff this evening, including Forged Bonds and a special announcement to come out next week!

Audiodramasunday Time!

For today's #audiodramasunday, we have a couple shoutouts to include! We're still working in the background, so not much listening going on, BUT we're excited to spotlight some shows that are wrapping up their seasons, or that we've just wrapped up in listening!

First, we truly want to give the HIGHEST props to @ethicstownpod for their S1 finale. The acting and writing were both exemplary, and we won't be able to get some of those moments out of our heads for a while -- really incredible job, you don't want to miss out on this one!

Next up, we're highlighting @tellnotalespod again, because we've just finished their S1 finale, and oh my GOODNESS we're so excited for S2! The cast and crew are incredible, and the story is super intriguing without needing to harp on horror (though we love our scares!) So good!

@desertskiespodcast is wrapping up with their finale tomorrow, and if you're looking for a cozy listening experience with humorous characters and existential plotlines (but not *too* existential), this is the show for you. Jared does incredible work!

And, as y'all may have seen already, KILL FM is gearing up for another release! We're super intrigued at what the next showcase will entail, and we suggest y'all keep your eyes and ears open for more news from these folks!

If you're looking to support another indie artist, we're currently crowdfunding for Syntax's 3rd season! You can check out the campaign below -- and if you like any of the above shows, we promise Syntax has a little of what you're looking for, as well!
