Hello audio drama community! I would love to interest you in little podcast appreciation-recommendation game. Please reblog/comment and share with me:

One podcast that you think person interested in audio drama should listen to (either because of the influence on the medium, a cool way of using audio format, general amazing sound, performance etc, whatever you think falls in this category)

One podcast that has community around it you love interacting with (fandom, artists, discord server, official accounts, etc)

One podcast that inspired you to create something (fanart, fanfic, something handmade, cosplay, headcanons, something completely original, etc)

RULES: One podcast per category, you can put the same podcasts in few if you want but I encourage trying to pick six different. I know that probably you have more than one that can fit every category but still I ask for one – I don’t want you to treat it as the one you put is your favourite or the best one, just the one you thought about now, is lately on your mind. If you can’t think about one for certain category you can leave it empty. If you want you can add explanations why this one, the description of the podcast or generally show some love but that’s completely voluntary. And if you are official podcast account and want to join the fun, came and join! Put your own podcast in any category and share your other choices.

ACTUALLY FUCK IT, I WILL ELABORATE, STRAP IN, BITCHES

Let me first make the following statements - 1) I come not to bin Caesar but to praise him. WOE.BEGONE is beautiful chaos, an erratic smorgasbord of musical talent, and complex characterisation. I respect this craft, I see how much work has gone into it and I am deeply impressed. Multiple ten-minute plus long fucking musical numbers, season finales with three whole songs in them. The memetic virus that is Old Brush Valley. Wild. 2) However, apart from respecting the music, I massively bounced off this podcast the first time I tried to listen to it, because I found the protagonist such an awful damp weasel of a man. I do not like the wet cat men so beloved of tumblr. I find them deeply annoying. No shade on you all but your kink is not my kink etc. I bounced off it so hard that I actually confused it with Ostium which I listened to around at the same time, and I would describe as fun and poignant, but really rather heterosexual. Woe.Begone is not remotely heterosexual. It is gayer than Quentin Crisp in a little Sailor Suit, gayer than the letter Bram Stoker sent to Walt Whitman saying "I am six feet two inches high and twelve stone weight naked". Gay as Elton John in a feather boa riding up Brokeback Mountain on a bear while sniffing poppers and quoting Oscar Wilde. I should have known. I should have guessed from the fans being absolutely feral nightmare gnomes.  They reminded me of the Stellar Firma fans. That shrieking bucket of wild kobolds snorting ketamine and downing tide pods vibe. That should have been a warning. But they asked nicely and they politely invited me into the discord server and like a fool I humoured them.  I gritted my teeth at the horribly flawed characters and I stuck with it….

Spoilers follow.

I love the fact Sam agrees to leave the Shire like "oh yeah, I'll go with Frodo. And I'd love to see some elves". Then it's literally day 3 of travelling still in the Shire when he gets to meet them. Because it means from here on out, Sam's motivation is 100% love and loyalty

I had 2 thoughts about Tom Bombadil when we were reading about him:

One of the possible in-universe explanations for Tom Bombadil is that he is God. While this is good idea with all Tom Bombadil's singing and Illuvatar's connection with music, it is way funnier is Tom Bombadil is a different being. Like imagine creating an empty world out of The Void, and you look in and theres just Some Guy Vibing

All his nonsense singing reminds me a bit of that episode of Stellar Firma where Trexel is making up riddles but they end up steadily turing into funny little nonsense rhymes.

There's a couple of moments that we've read so far that will form interesting parallels later on (spoilers for the first time readers):

The hobbits feeling awkward carrying swords for the first time vs. when they return to Bree and Barliman is like "yeah, of course no one hassled you on the way here, you're all fully decked out in armour with swords" to which the hobbits are like "oh wow we forgot that was actually weird"

Strider and Merry meeting for the first time after Merry encountered a Black Rider vs. when Merry is one of the people Aragorn has to heal with his Kingly Healing Hands(TM)

Sam standing up to Strider when he first meets him vs. Sam's similar but even more defensive behaviour when they first speak to Faramir. I really love this one bc Sam is absolutely willing to challenge some Man who is almost twice his height and is skilled with a sword.

Also, this is less of a parallel and more of a common thread throughout the story but I love the frequency with which the hobbits have been meeting unexpected friends after leaving Bag End. There's a quote from Elrond when the fellowship is being formed about meeting "friends unlooked for" or something (I don't remember the exact phrase) and I love that this theme was set down immediately after the hobbits left

I find it very interesting that when the hobbits were like "tell us one of the Old Tales" and Aragorn chooses a comforting one in the form of the Tale of Beren and Luthien. In isolation, it's a good choice. There's hope amid hardship and people achieving impossible tasks with the power of love. It's very comforting if you're about to be attacked by evil creatures.

However, with the context of Aragorn and Arwen, you have to ask how many times has that been Aragorn's comfort to himself? How many cold nights in the wilderness has Aragorn spent imagining Beren doing the same thing? Does the successful taking of a Silmaril turn Aragorn's task of becoming King of Gondor and Arnor from "Impossible" to only "Very Difficult"? Or does it turn it into a sort of destiny that can and will be fulfilled? That he won't be stuck roaming the world alone for all his long life?

While everyone's gathered here together:

Why Disco Elysium fans should consider listening to Stellar Firma:

Become radicalized with newborn clone David 7 under the guardianship of a man more disasterous than HDB himself as they design planets for interstellar clients.

Lots of themes around communism and the pitfalls of capitalism (Primarily the latter until season 3... but there is an entire episode just about communism).

Dark/dystopian improv comedy, with many new silly quotes to add to your repertoire.

Like characters going on off-the wall rants that also reflect their traumas? Of course you do.

Singing! (and a cabaret-themed music album!)

Despite not being a focus of the show, has really strong gender diversity rep across the various clients and David themself (more so than any other media I've so far come across tbh).

Beautiful intro theme and extremely good sound editing (that does not shy away from the disturbing).

[Disclaimer: Every episode of the podcast has warnings for emotional abuse, alcoholism, and comedic violence. This is not a joke! If you find that this bothers you then this may not be a show for you.]

Thanks for coming to my mini-TED talk. Happy fashion disastering and may the Board preserve and keep you. :)

ROUND 3

Matchup #3.1: Trexel Geistman (Stellar Firma) vs Harrier du Bois (Disco Elysium)

Gross men (affectionate) fighting <3

In the left corner we have Trexel Geistman from the podcast Stellar Firma. As you let me know, his notable Fashion Choices include:

wearing three pairs of sunglasses and four hats simultaneously, as well as multicolored wigs he bathes in

gills surgically implanted in armpits

carrying around a dead fish in a fanny pack

being implied to have critters living in his chest hair

being drawn in a variety of Interesting Outfits by fanartists! -> a full propaganda post we received for more info can be found here!

On the right side, there's the poor little meow meow Harrier Du Bois. Here's what made you consider him a Fashion Disaster!

"horrendous neck tie", "disco-ass blazer," yellow bellbottom pants, and green snakeskin shoes as default game outfit

willingly wearing a green frog visor, a mesh shirt, a jacket that says “piss f####t” on the back, a jacket crusted in feces, and many other Interesting Outfits if you put them on him

wearing clothes found in the trash without washing them

Let's settle it!

[tbiatc]

If Trexel has an age, he probably stole it from a dying child

[stellarfirmaquotes]

TREXEL : You’re alive, aren’t you, David, in a way? In a way, aren’t you alive?

DAVID : Yes, I am definitely alive.

TREXEL : I do mean, in a sort of a way alive?

DAVID : No, just definitely still alive—

TREXEL : Obviously not like a regular person, but you know, sort of alive. Like a way, like a pet dog is alive, you know. Or maybe a frog.

DAVID: Okay, all of those things are still just alive.

TREXEL: Or a horse, you know, the way a horse might be alive.

DAVID: Just alive.

TREXEL: Or like a cloud. In the way that a cloud is alive.

DAVID: No, a cloud isn’t alive.

So Pump Shanty and Little Clone Baby are great but how about both, at the same time.

Enjoy or whatever emotion this may produce….
