This episode’s theme is reflection:  looking back on the past year, and looking ahead to the year to come.  Our two stories are about exactly that, wrapped ominously in the glitter of the holiday spirit. We’ll start with our pals at Atlanta Radio Theatre Company, with one final dive into the post-zombiecalypse series Mercury: A Broadcast of Hope, as they reflect on the arrival of New Years’ Eve, and what that means about looking ahead when your world belongs to the undead.  That’s the story behind broadcast #451 – “Auld Lang Syne.”  (Remember, each broadcast-style podcast is only available online for 24 hours, so ifRead More →

Who’s ready for more adventures in some out-of-this world locales? In Victoriocity, writers Chris and Jen Sugden share a story that reaches back to 2010 in its production.  The tale of Even Greater London instills the Victorian Era with a significant advance in science and technology, while keeping a strong sense of imagination and tongue-in-cheek humor, especially in our good detective Inspector Fleet.  Victoriocity is a wonderful romp of noir, mystery and comedy that’s sure to amuse. On the other side of the galaxy, the story of Lone Star Planet is a Ron N. Butler adaption of the novel, written by H. Beam Piper. It’s a story of true WesternRead More →
