Hello again, audiodramaphiles! As we head further into the new year, there’s always that feeling of looking back to what was before, and in some cases, our pasts coming back to haunt us. That’s the theme of tonight’s show, as we hear another story from Decoder Ring Theatre‘s Black Jack Justice and the first four episodes from Rick Coste‘s series “Inhale“. If you remember, back in 2016 we got a listen to “Behemoth“, one of Rick Coste‘s first works from his Modern Audio Drama series. Since then he has gone on to create several more stories, including “Scotch”, “Bryar Lane” and “Is Anybody Out There?”Read More →

Hello audio drama enthusiasts, and welcome to 2019 – already defunct with website problems. This episode and several of our entries in the Archive are slow-going, as we’re navigating the new system update that has thrown some of our old coding into disarray. Apologies for the slow progress! This show, we’re kicking off our January tradition of bringing you a collection of Black Jack Justice stories from our good friends at Decoder Ring Theatre – a comforting start to whatever your new year holds. It’s back-to-back Justice and Dixon, who are stopping by the local precinct quite a bit to get the info they needRead More →

Happy Holidays radio listeners!   This is a special MAT Holiday episode we aired on Christmas Day this year.  Not every episode of MAT is appropriate for all audiences – it is a midnight show, after all – but on a holiday such as Christmas where storytelling is such a core element of the season, we wanted to share a set of family-friendly stories that everyone could enjoy after the presents have been opened.  And now you can hear it here! We welcomed back two production groups from last year – Uncanny County and Aural Traditions.  We start with the former as we venture out toRead More →

This episode title seems so innocent, doesn’t it?  When in fact, this set of holiday stories revolves around the theme of the unexpected – some good and others not so much.  What may come as a surprise to you right at the start is the premiere of our newest MAT Feature!  We’ve been in high-gear working on getting this story mixed and finished for the holiday season.  “The Angel of Casimir” is written by Jim McDoniel, one of our winners from our last MAT Scriptwriting Competition (which has come around again – go check it out here).  McDoniel takes us to December 1914, spinning aRead More →

The obnoxious songs on repeat.  The overly-cheery decorations.  The glitz and glamour of an overdone holiday season.  Is this what goes through your mind during December?  Does everything you see make you want to mutter, “Bah!  Humbug”?  Then never fear – this show is for you! For this episode, we’ve found a handful of grinchy stories from new and old characters alike. Starting things off we welcome the folks at Public Domain Universe with their story, “GhostCo“. The PDU podcast series focuses on Candide, Tom Sawyer, and Cinderella and their misadventures – but for the Christmas holiday, they’ve pulled out an exclusive behind-the-scenes look atRead More →

Hello there, audio drama fans – since the winter holiday is getting underway, what better way to ring things in than with Part 2 of last show’s romantic comedy feature, “Deck The Halls (with Matrimony)!”  This fun story from Sasquatch Radio left us last time with Emma and Jackie recovering from a rafter of rogue turkeys at a Thanksgiving wedding – and some unexpected assistance from one helpful groomsman.  This show showcases the rest of the story as romance blooms, drama unfolds and Christmas weddings become maddening.

We’re back for more relationship drama of sorts, as we find ourselves approaching Thanksgiving here in the states.  It’s the time of year to celebrate the bonds of family and friends, or getting to know a stranger as your fellow man – while both appreciating and recognizing the loss we feel when we lose others. This show, it’s a little bit of everything as we listen to an interview story about one woman’s people-watching habit leads to some unexplained events in a story from The Big Loop Podcast. The Big Loop is a more intimate look at personal stories and experiences of all kinds of people, compared toRead More →
