We’re back with more Decoder Ring Theatre and their Summer Showcase stories! This show, we take a trip back to the Wild West, before and after the Golden Age of Radio. Penned by Phil Bledsoe, Blaze Bing is the quintessential Man of the Old West – but when radio dramas have passed their prime, what becomes of the voice who brought Blaze to life? Take a listen to all of the good, bad and the ugly in these back-to-back stories: “Blaze Bing, Rodeo King” and “Tales of the Rodeo King”. Enjoy!

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 →

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 →

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 →

It’s happened!  If you’ve ever heard one of our weekly episodes and wanted to be in the studio with us, or listened to our MAT Features and have wondered what a live show would be like, this is the show for you!  On Saturday, May 12th we had our first-ever MAT Live show, featuring two MAT Features written by Evan Waters, a past winner of our annual Scriptwriting Competition.  And what an evening it was!  Listeners blew us away with the turn-out, showed us nothing but encouragement, and made for some pretty awesome impromptu foley artists later in the show.  If you made it outRead More →

It’s time to head back into space!  We have another show of adventure in the stars as we return with Girl in Space and Universe Journey, and both are back to continue their tales. It’s All Been Done Radio Hour will have the second half of our show, with the story of crew dysfunction and chaos as they transport a familiar admiral across the galaxy, in “Journey of Babble“.  But first, we’re reuniting with “Girl in Space”. The majority of the story is driven by Sara Rhea Werner, who spends 40-80 hours of work writing, performing, mixing and producing each episode. She’s driven by a love of writing and podcasting, asRead More →

This is a very late episode posting – the spring fund drive has passed, but we fell very short of our goal and will be having a station 24-hour fund drive event the week of May 24th.  Please help WCBE out by donating online at wcbe.org! Thank you to all of you who supported us during latest Spring Fund Drive for WCBE and supporting audio drama on the radio in the process. We love our parent station and we hope you love them too. In fact, we love them so much we thought a public radio-themed story would be a fun treat for tonight – Decoder RingRead More →

If you’re feeling dreary, not to worry!  We have some audio dramas to catch your attention, including another premiere from our MAT Features collection of 2017. This week we’re bringing you a story by Evan Waters, entitled “They Slipped the Bonds of Earth” – a story of science fiction, with a project gone horribly wrong. It is voiced by a fantastic group of actors – and a special thanks goes out to the evening staff at WCBE, for providing some of the background cafe goers you might hear if you listen close enough.  After that, it’s a story from the Decoder Ring Theatre Showcase series, penned byRead More →

And thank you for joining us on another premiere night of MAT Features!  We received all of the submissions to our scriptwriting competition, so it’s time for the judges to review the contenders!  In the meantime, we’re happy to bring you another one of our MAT Features from 2017. It’s a comedic romp through the woods with some suspicious undertones in Peter Gruenbaum’s “Bad Egg”.  After that, we have another variety of Decoder Ring Theatre – one of their Summer Showcase Series stories doing their take on a Great Northern Audio favorite. It’s the superhero mockumentary “The Saving of the World”. But first, time for our MAT Feature:Read More →
