Hello audio drama listeners! We’re back from our May Replays, as we unofficially call it. Between wrapping up the MAT Scriptwriting Competition, MAT Feature auditions and casting, the month of May tends to be a recharge month to let us get back on our feet. Thank you for waiting for us! To kick things back into gear, we’re revisiting an old friend with some specialty stories to tell. It’s time to open some Marvellous Boxes containing two tales from Decoder Ring Theatre‘s Showcase series, both written by Tim Prasil. First up is “Frozen Words Thawed”, where a historical oddity is questioned and a reminder thatRead More →

The horrors of winter are finally breaking their hold – how about something a bit more light-hearted for a spring audio drama? This show, we’re taking a listen to a family-friendly fairy tale – “Cinderella” from Voices in the Wind Audio Theatre.

We’ve updated! This and the next few episodes were late in posting – I’m afraid we got a bit sidetracked with following up on MAT Features planning and auditions, as well as some new projects we’re trying to start up. Thank you for your patience! Automnicon is here for you. Whether you want to be or not. Welcome! This show, we’re going on a journey of odd jobs, personal debt and corporate obligation, all thanks to Automnicon – the kind of space-bound company Hartlife might become if it was purely driven by profit and statistics. Born from a love of radio, audio books and storytelling,Read More →

Well, we’ve had our fill of science fiction lately – how about something different for your audio palette? We’re happy to have ZoomDoom Stories sharing their newest podcast series, Mirrors with us for a bit of late-night horror storytelling. Written and produced by “SPINES” creator Jamie Killen, the series is an example of storytelling that doesn’t need much in the way of sound design, crafted in the style of found audio logs and episodic reporting. The story stars Jamie along with Lucy Pearce and Sarah Hemmi, with occasional voicing from Sarah Rhea Warner of “Girl In Space”. Mirrors is currently working through the production ofRead More →

When you’re travelling through deep space, it always seems like the medical crew takes a back seat – there for our heroes during their most painful moments or strange, unusual symptoms…but when everything is calm and uneventful, never to be heard from. That’s all about to change tonight as we’re introduced to the med team that takes center stage in Justin McLachlan‘s ongoing series, EOS 10. Since it’s first season kicked off in 2014, EOS 10 has enjoyed a cult following thanks to its unique perspective of life on board a space station, giving us flawed but intriguing characters working in an area of theRead More →

We have our archives and audio links fixed and back to normal! Thank you for waiting on us! It’s one last case with Justice and Dixon tonight before we say goodbye for a while – and a proper hello to Commander O’Rania, ANDI and the rest of the crew onboard the Sequoia VII. It may be sad to see Black Jack Justice go for a while, but it’s a welcome relief for Trixie -who’s had just about enough of a certain person walking through the detectives’ door tonight. Justice and Dixon help track a family fortune in “Two is Two Many” from Decoder Ring Theatre.Read More →

Hello dear listeners! Wouldn’t you know, we had a last-minute change for this show. Questions, uncertainties and unknowns led us to pulling out these two Black Jack Justice tales that, at the end of the night, felt very fitting for a show where nothing goes the way you plan. Jack Justice and Trixie Dixon are back as they tackle the protection and ousting of a conundrum of the academic community, with a snake that seems to have deviated from the norm. After that, the police has Justice and Dixon behind bars for a crime they didn’t commit. It’s another night of noir with Decoder RingRead More →

Hi audio drama fans! As we’re getting caught up on our episode logs, we’re sorry to say that at the time of this posting, the MAT scriptwriting competition has come to a close. Good luck to everyone who submitted, and be sure to keep an eye out for the competition again next fall! This show, it’s the little things that get to you. It’s all well and good to say “don’t sweat the small stuff” – until it’s the small stuff that causes the world to go sideways. It’s a theme of our two guest stories – ‘2298‘ by A.R. Olivieri, and another ‘Black JackRead More →
