Hi folks!  This week I’m afraid I’ve come down with something akin to a very back cold – or a very mild flu, I’m not sure which.  So thank you in advance for listening through my weird, scratchy talking at the beginning and end of tonight’s show.  Hopefully I’ll be in better shape for you next week! Before we jump in to tonight’s tales, I’d like to say a quick thank-you to everyone who turned up for our live auditions in Central Ohio – we sat in with Actors Theatre of Columbus last weekend to hear anyone interested in trying out for parts in ourRead More →

If you live in Central Ohio or the surrounding area, you know this is a great evening to stay in – because we had snow this morning.  In March.  And there’s more on the way. I used to live farther north, so this really shouldn’t be a surprise…but seriously? Anyway, what better excuse to stay in the warm indoors and listen to some stories?  This show marks Week 5 of our “Series Run” with Decoder Ring Theatre and Final Rune Productions. By the end of this month, we’ll be on to some new stories and series, so enjoy these two while they’re here!  It’s time to returnRead More →

Welcome back folks! It’s Week 4 of our “Series Run” here at MAT, where we’re running two episodic shows back-to-back – one from Decoder Ring Theatre and another from Final Rune Productions. This marks our halfway point for both series!  That means there will be plenty more of these stories coming our way through March, so we hope you’ve been enjoying them so far!  Tonight’s selections start with “Deck Gibson: Far-Reach Commander“, followed by Episode 4 of Final Rune Productions‘ “The Cleansed“, Season 1.     But what’s this?  A new announcement!  This is specifically for our listeners in the Central Ohio area. Now that our MAT Feature scripts haveRead More →

Hello folks! We’re back with new stories, as we continue what I’m calling a “Series Run” – two episodic shows back-to-back every week, featuring some of our favorite audio drama groups.  This time around it’s the post-apocalyptic drama of Final Rune Productions‘ fame, Season 1 of “The Cleansed“.   Before that we’ll be harkening back to the style of the golden age of radio in the wonderful science-fiction tales of “Deck Gibson, Far-Reach Commander” – brought to life in the Summer Showcase Series produced by Decoder Ring Theatre.  There’s action, there’s adventure, there’s intrigue!  And you can here them all in one hour, right here!     BeforeRead More →

Hey folks!  Before we go any further, I want to start with a quick apology.  Last week we announced that the winners of our Scriptwriting Competition could be found listed here on our website, but apparently our scheduled updates of that info never took effect after that announcement had been made.  We’ve looked into it and figured out the issue, but not until a few days ago.  A big apology for anyone who went looking for that info online and never found it.  It’s up now! Tonight we have our second installment of the serial tastings from Decoder Ring Theatre and Final Rune Productions.  WeRead More →

Welcome back, everyone!  Tonight’s a jam-packed night of tales from Final Rune Productions and Decoder Ring Theatre.  It’s a show of firsts, with the First episode of The Cleansed, season 1, and the first in the Deck Gibson series.  One’s a post-apocalytpic nightmare; the other, a scifi adventure series harking back to the old days of Buck Rodgers and the like.  Decoder Ring Theatre brings us the science fiction, with an episode called “Deck Gibson and the Stardust Dancers“; but before that, it’s time to dive into the Final Rune series entitled “The Cleansed”, with the first episode entitled: The Cleansed, Episode 1 – TheRead More →

HAPPY 2016, EVERYONE! Well, we’re back again!  Christmas has come and gone, but the holidays are still here, including New Year’s Day celebrations.  For the first time we’re joining in on the fun -by pulling together a New Year’s Day episode for your listening enjoyment.  It’s a little bit of everything, as we start with our final MAT Feature of 2015: a sci-fi adventure entitled “Tara Flame On Patrol”, by Evan Waters. “Tara Flame” was a blast to produce, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we have!  Blasting off from that, we follow it up with another gem from The Truth Podcast entitled “Happy New Year“;Read More →

What a night for some holiday audio dramas!  And tonight, we have an extra treat – another story from our 2015 MAT Features!  It’s not Christmas-themed per-se, but it does start far up north, where a research team is investigating some uncovered ruins in a melting glacier. The story is written by Jim McDoniel, one of the winners of our scriptwriting competition last year. Both cast and crew greatly enjoyed this script, and we only hope that we did it justice! For our holiday selections, we start with a tale from Misfits Audio Productions entitled “Moop Saves Christmas“. It’s a sequel to “Moop’s Christmas Carol“, where a tiny alienRead More →

Happy Holidays, everyone!  November is gone, and now it’s time to shower you with many a winter-wonderland-type tale!  This month we’re breaking out the Christmas stories, and every year we try to find a collection of unique and lesser-known tales, instead of the traditional “Carol”.  Tonight is certainly high on that unique list, with pieces from The Truth Podcast and 19 Nocturne Boulevard.  We start with “Naughty or Nice“, which shows us a glimpse of the infrastructure behind Santa’s corporate organization.  After that is a “Trilogy for Xmas“, with stories from the 1912 anthology “A Christmas Garland”, adapted for audio drama – “Scruts” by Arnold Bennett, “PCRead More →
