Hello storytelling fans! We’re back with some science fiction and comedy.  This show, we welcome Jessica Best and the rest of the cast and crew of The Strange Case of Starship Iris.  In a future where intergalactic war has come to an end two years prior, a mysterious explosion kills nearly the entire crew of Starship Iris.  It’s lone survivor, still aboard the ship, is left to confront her options and possibilities for survival.  Why did this happen, and what will become of her and her research? After that, IABDRH is back with a new Packer and Ratcliff tale to celebration their 3rd Anniversary show!  A bigRead 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 →

Welcome back audio dramaphiles! Last show was an April Fools’ episode; this show is all about shooting for the stars in two charming sci-fi tales. Starting things off is the tale of a young botanist in the depths of space, monitoring Ra-1079 from the dying ship Cavatica.  It’s “Girl in Space” – the brainchild of writer/mixer/voice actress/producer Sara Rhea Werner. With 8 episodes released and 4 more coming soon, she has already begun work on Season Two – so if you like what you hear tonight, there’s much more of the story to look forward to!  We’re kicking things off with Episode 1, “Cheese is Delicious Science”. Read 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 →

2017 is nearly over!  But we’re still bringing you new audio dramas right up to the last week.  With the holidays starting to wrap up and thoughts of new lives and new resolutions start to spark, we thought it fitting to play two audio dramas from Earbud Theater that we thought fit with the uncertainty of the season.  Old lives and new beginnings are both themes in these stories, as we kick things off with “Zero’s Hour” – involving a character with little time to spare.  After that, we’ll lighten the mood a little with a quick commercial break from our friends at It’s AllRead More →

Winter continues in the Arctic as we return for another two episodes of The White Vault.  This show we’ll continue listening to reports from Svalbard with Episodes 3 and 4 – “Location” and “Response“.  Last show we mentioned that The White Vault is a binge-listening type of audio drama; as such the cast and crew credits aren’t heard until the end of the season, so we wanted to make note of them here. The White Vault is “satellite audio drama”, with an international collection of cast members that record individually and send their lines to be mixed together.  Said mixing is by Brandon Strader (who has also mixed for the Liberty podcast series)Read More →

Hello audio drama fans!  This month, as the holidays approach we’re taking a look at the theme of “family”.  That’s in quotes, because most of our stories are very loosely based on the idea, and not necessarily the heartwarming tales you might expect.  Discovering family secrets, abandoned children and family members lost to the unknown surround our tales this month – perhaps as a reminder to appreciate the people we have in the present. This show we welcome back two familiar friends of the show – Decoder Ring Theatre and It’s All Been Done Radio Hour.  From a 2012 anthology series penned by Tim Prasil,Read More →

tunnels podcast

Welcome back, audiodramaphiles!  This show we have a bit of comedy and a lot of reporting on the mysterious and unknown.  Over the next few weeks, we’ll be listening in to stories from a narrative reporting perspective – with the listener as a “participating witness”, if you will. The Tunnels is one such series; created by Robert Chauncey and produced by Deaf Spider Productions, it follows a curious investigator wanting to find out more about the mysterious tunnels underneath the town of Griffin, Georgia – where they are, their purpose, and their mysterious or haunting history.  With two seasons under their belt and a third seasonRead More →

And thanks for tuning in, audio drama listeners! If you’ve been hearing some static on-air recently, blame mother nature. WCBE recently took a nasty hit to our transmitter thanks to a well-placed lightening strike.  We’re doing our best to get everything back to proper broadcasting quality and standards, but we will definitely need replacement parts we don’t have to fix this.  If you have a minute and a few extra dollars please go to wcbe.org and make a donation to help us return to full broadcast operation! In the meantime, it’s pure coincidence that tonight we’re airing another work from the production group Dead Signals. YouRead More →
