Yes! I'm all for fanart from this podcast, it's criminally slept on by artists everywhere. Awesome job, I loved this story. My favorite from the first season.

Just finished this piece inspired by Old Gods of Appalachia. I'm thinking of calling it "The Green and the Dark" or "Tenuous Balance." Thoughts?

As a sort of celebration for my second re-listen to Old Gods of Appalachia and a sudden realization that I need to draw more animals, here's the great Hornéd Head and his (unbroken) glowing antlers

[podcast-official]

that one old gods of appalachia episode where they talk about how sometimes people had siblings that were actually just friends who had abusive parents who came over for dinner one day and just. didn't leave. and nobody ever mentioned it or cared. fuckin chill as hell

The way I would sell my soul just to have one person who would be willing to lie on the floor with me and listen to my favorite podcasts. Am I asking for too much? I know you'd like Limetown, I know you'd like TMA, I know you'd like Archive 81. Why won't anyone just lie on the floor with me, goddammit…

For the last few years for Asexual Awareness week, I'd try to do a drawing of Jonathan Sims from The Magnus Archives, but at this point theres so many podcast asexuals, I had to draw more, so of the aces going through it squad, we have Daughter Dooley from Old Gods of Appalachia, Sister Carpenter from The Silt Verses, and Jared Hel from Jar of Rebuke.

In other news I'm listening to podcasts at work.

[beano-no-know69]

hey can anyone give me recs for good spooky audio dramas?

Also bonus points if there’s gays in it (although honestly at this point I go into podcasts assuming there will be, and am hardly ever wrong)

Ones I’ve liked and listened to are: the Magnus archives, the box, king falls am, old gods of Appalachia, darkest night, limetown, spines, the bright sessions, wolf 359, all the public radio alliance ones, Alice isn’t dead, archive 81, life after, the message, the far meridian, the bridge, mirrors, the 12:37, penumbra, strange case of starship iris, girl in space, the leap year society, Mabel, and the white vault

okay. i'm up to episode five now, so, by increasingly popular demand lol:

my initial thoughts about old gods of appalachia

i think it's really smart in what it relays as "appalachian horror," because this is actually what The Appalachian Gothic is supposed to give

what i mean is it's not just like the usual spoopy mythical forest/"don't investigate the noises in the woods" stuff alone. dgmw, obviously i love the urban legends

but the gothic of an area or time period needs cultural elements tied in to really make it chilling, and this does it well. it stands out in the way that it incorporates the genuine horrors of humanity in appalachia with the supernatural element everyone is drawn to about these mountains. it's very creatively done

like in the barlo, kentucky saga i am currently listening to, it's the dangerous coal mines and the near-possessed preacher turning all hellfire n brimstone at the behest of the haints. it preys (i use this word positively here) on this mix of very specific but common fears, both existential and otherwise, held by residents of the appalachian south. love it

as an aside, i love the narrator's accent because it sounds like mine :') a lifetime of code switching means mine isn't quite as strong unfortunately, but our pronunciation habits and colloquialisms are next to identical, so there manages to be this like warm and nostalgic feeling to it, too

because it's honestly so nice to hear my accent and my family's accent as a critical part of a superb story being told, and not just as a vehicle for mockery and stereotypes :')))

all in all... it is Good Shit

DOUBLE ANNOUNCEMENT!

First - the Camlann soundtrack album is available for pre-order right now on the @tincanaudio Bandcamp Page!

Second - on the 30th November Ella, Amber and the team are going to be doing a 12 hour Twitch marathon on the Tin Can Audio Twitch channel to raise money for season 2!

The stream is going to start at 2pm GMT (that's 10am EDT, 7am PDT) and run til 2am. From the second hour we'll be doing a re-listen of the series, with an episode on the hour every hour.

We're also going to be joined by a number of special guests! These will include the amazing @laurenshippen, Eira Major from @hangingslothcentral, Joe Fisher from Midnight Burger, Steve Shell from Old Gods of Appalachia, and many many more. Our guests will be joining us to chat about folklore, medieval history and all things Camlann.

PLUS, we're going to have a raffle and we'll be giving away actual physical merchandise. Specifically: 9 signed posted, 9 custom made fabric campfire patches, and 9 copies of Ella's TTRPG Upriver Downriver thanks to the generous support of @macguffinandco. Right now this is the only way to be in with a chance of getting physical Camlann merchandise, so if you're interested please join us on Saturday 30th November 2024 and donate!

Overall, we need to raise £36,000 to make season 2. We're hoping to get most of that from grant funding, but UK arts charities are more likely to fund projects which have already raised some cash from audience support. That's where you come in! We've made £2,000 already thanks to the generous donations of our listeners. If we can get up to at least £5,000 in this livestream, our funding applications will be that much more competitive.

So please, join us, hang out and have fun!
