Hi there, folks!  This episode is posted late, so while we had some announcements to make about upcoming events to check out, unfortunately the deadlines for both have since passed.  We’re sorry for dropping the ball on this, but here’s the info anyway – be sure to keep these events in mind for when they come around next year! The Marion Thauer Brown Audio Drama Scriptwriting Competition:  it’s fourth year in a row, this competition opens their door to stories of all types of genres, and once judged, awards cash prizes and honors to first and second place winners.  Their only requirements are that theRead More →

Welcome back everyone! It’s time for another evening of storytelling, and once again we have filled up the entire hour of our show with audio drama.  Rejoice! We’re having a sleepover at 19 Nocturne Boulevard, and you’re invited!  But these aren’t just any tales – tonight’s treats are two classic short stories with a modern twist.  The first is “Il Professoro’s Daughter“, inspired by a short story by Nathaniel Hawthorne entitled “Rappaccini’s Daughter” and published in the 1844 collection Mosses from an Old Manse.  The second is called “The View from Within“, based on the story “The Outsider” by H. P. Lovecraft which was first published in Weird Tales, April 1926.  (Interestingly,Read More →

Hello again, folks! For the past few weeks we’ve shared a handful of rediscovered treasures – episodes that were lost to our archives. Tonight we’re still taking a look back in a way, but with some brand-new stories to tell.  Our first selection is none-other than one of our MAT Features!  But how can that be, you ask?  Well, if you’re a long-time listener, you may have noticed back in 2014 that only one of our two winning Scriptwriting Competition entries was produced to air.  Some unfortunate stalling and production backfiring occurred that year which prevented us from sharing the second story with you…but weRead More →

Audio drama, get your audio drama!  This month we’ve decided to wait on the winter holiday hullabaloo, and instead  focus on  stories involving family and remembrance in our lead-up to Thanksgiving. This week and next we have a story from Great Northern Audio Theatre, entitled “In the Embers” which premiered at the HEAR Now Festival in Kansas City earlier this year.  With this story’s release, Great Northern Audio is excited to announce that their story has been picked up by Blackstone Audio, and is available on their website starting December 8th.  That includes a making-of documentary created especially for the release of “In the Embers”. Be sure to check theRead More →

Welcome, folks!  We’re counting down the weeks of our spooky shows!  Tonight we have a trio of stories for you, with some special shorts and a long lighthouse mystery.  We are happy to share with you a new, local Columbus audio production, “The Zombie Teddy Bear“, based off of the children’s book by David Simone – it may sound scary, but it’s actually quite charming.  Following that is a joint production from Final Rune Productions and Biddeford High School in Maine, entitled “Vampire in the Vernal Pool” – part of a project to combine theatre art as outdoors-experimental learning. And of course, we have the secondRead More →

Listeners of MAT were first introduced to Yap Audio Productions with Season One of their “Aftermath” series, a postapocalyptic story of survival.  They have since released a Season Two as well, in addition to several short, stand-alone pieces and started a podcast.  Their show, the Audio DramaRead More →

Welcome back!  It’s October, and you know what that means – we’re kicking off a full month of spooky tales, in preparation for Halloween.   But not everything is filled with horror; some of the tales we have for you will have tastes of the comedic and adventure to round out our listening pallets.  This evening we decided to start things off with one of the masters of the supernatural, H.P. Lovecraft.  Our friends at Atlanta Radio Theatre Company have comprised a collection of stories based on the writer’s tales, some to unnerve – and some to make you chuckle.  ARTC  has a new release of this collection on their website entitled,”TheRead More →

It’s an uncovered, long-lost episode! At the time of this posting, this show had disappeared from our archives since it’s original airing 9 months ago.  Fortunately, as we continue to improve our upkeep of our website, we managed to uncover this show and can post it now for your listening pleasure.  It it, we had a full hour feature of works from 19 Nocturne Boulevard.  We continued with our interest in audio dramas of the wild west with 19 Nocturne’s ‘The Deadeye Kid‘ series – in this show, we hear Episode 4, “Haunting Melody“.  After that, it’s a quaint, cheeky short story penned by H. H.Read More →

Sad but true, folks – tonight is our last show of HEAR Now Festival features from way back in June.   But what great shows to end on!  This episode, we kick things off with two stories from The Truth Podcast, produced by Jonathan Mitchell. We had one or two selections on our show from “The Truth” years ago, and to hear the podcast at the HEAR Now Festival was really exciting. The two stories featured at the festival were “Voyager Found” and “Sylvia’s Blood“. Both of them won recognitions at the Mark Time Awards, including Science Fiction Finalist, the Gold Award for Horror, and Best EnsembleRead More →
