New stories from old friends – that’s what’s in store for you in this episode.  We’re continuing our horror motif with some heart-pounding terror from our buddies at Campfire Radio Theater. Campfire Radio Theater specializes in horror, and their expertise shows in this adaptation of the spine-tingling short story by Joe R. Lansdale, “Incident On and Off a Mountain Road”.  Lansdale wrote the comedy-horror novella Bubba Ho-Tep, which became a cult-classic movie with Bruce Campbell. There’s no room for humor in this piece, though — it’s all harrowing suspense when the heroine, Ellen, is figuratively running from a bad relationship.  But after a night-time car crash inRead More →

We’re moving from fun fantasy to abject horror with this episode’s sole feature: Janus Descending, by No Such Thing Radio. Janus Descending follows the stories of Peter and Chel:  two xenoarchaeologists who launch an expedition to survey a small planet in a binary star system.  Their focus is on the remains of an alien civilization.  They soon realize that the monsters who destroyed that civilization still lurk in the ruins…and scientific discovery is fast forgotten as Peter and Chel find themselves in a game of cat-and-mouse, with their own lives in the balance. Jordan Cobb created and produced this high-suspense story; she also plays Chel. 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 →

Happy post-Halloween — and happy episode posting day!  A big apology to everyone waiting on our archive updates.  It’s been one of our weak points in keeping up MAT week-to-week.  We know it’s a pain, and it’s definitely on our list of New Year resolutions for 2019.  Thanks so much for hanging in there! Two holidays have just past us by – we hope you had a wonderful World Audio Drama Day on October 30th, and an equally awesome Halloween on October 31st.  If you missed our Halloween broadcast, we bowed out for the night and gave our friends at Craft center-stage.  Their Halloween storytellingRead More →

Welcome back, audio drama aficionados!  We’re still working our way towards Halloween, and there’s no better way to do so this show than wrap up last week’s story with it’s chilling conclusion.  We’re talking about the story of the dark and mysterious Enfield Manor on one late Halloween night in “Shade of Night” from ‘The Night Keep’.  The Night Keep and its productions was started by writer/composer Daniel Edenfield, who was looking for an outlet to practice his craft.  Now, it has become a hub of spooky storytelling, created by a group of friends eager to develop audio drama horror stories.   If you like what you hear fromRead More →

The mystery, suspense and supernatural continue to grow as we get closer to Halloween night this month, and what better way to enjoy it than within two spooky houses on the hill.  This show, we start with one more installment of Mabel, where we overhear more about the unusual events happening at Sally’s house as Anna spots a person who shouldn’t be there, and won’t go away.  After that, we have a new story to the show, entitled “Shade of Night” from The Night Keep.  It’s a haunted house story that mixes points of view – recordings, a radio show and reporting live from theRead More →

Who’s ready for more steampunk and suspense? Kicking things off with BRASS, we’re taken to an alternative 18th century –  one that amplifies the better aspects of the Victorian era, including their more progressive, optimistic and ingenious traits.  Battleground Productions has planted their focus in this society setting – in addition to their regular podcast series, they have also launched a second series, BRASS Stacks, which features short stories from the Victorian and Edwardian eras, and a new BRASS mini-series scheduled for the near future.  Brass fans will have a lot of storytelling to enjoy!  For now, we have two more episodes to share with you, starting whereRead More →

Is the DeLorean gone?  Can we start the show now? We know our intro clip isn’t the normal one – but since our parent station (WCBE 90.5) had their fall fund drive in-between the normal MAT airing days, we decided to add a little extra something of our own, post-drive.  If you love audio drama and want to encourage having it on the radio, consider supporting WCBE 90.5 FM Columbus with a donation! Now, how about some new audio drama stories?  We’ve survived our night in the woods last week with Lake Clarity, now it’s time to go both ways – into the city withRead More →

Well hi there!  It’s about time we had a new episode.  Thank you all for your patience as we took an unexpected break from new shows.  We’re back from the HEAR Now Festival, and it’s about time that we get back to some new audio drama selections.  We’re taking a look at identities this show, with two stories to go with it: a horror story entitled “Blood Night” by SoundStories.  We found this story within the newly-compiled collection of SideTracks – a large archive of Great Northern Audio Theatre-related works from outside their main production track.  There’s a lot more to listen to (over 20 years’Read More →
