If you want me to content/trigger tag anything, ask.

Contrary to my username, this blog does not contain sexual content.

If you need to talk about me for some reason, it/its pronouns are preferred, they/them is also fine but will be taken as an admission of defeat.

My aspec rep post can be found here.

Details on the September 2025 Fiction Podcast Zine Festival can be found here.

My Bandcamp Friday podcast catalogues can be found here (podcasts and specials) and here (podcast music).

A guide to frequently used tags for this blog can be found here.

My asks are still open if you want to give me podcast recommendations. I appreciate being given recommendations.

Requests for me to give you recommendations are open, but unlikely to go through as I am very tired and busy. I hope to one day not be very tired and busy so I can make lots of recommendations again.

Lists of what I've already heard can be found here (audio drama A-Q), here (audio drama R-Z), and here (TTRPG pods). Check before asking if I've heard something.

I don't listen to erotica or musicals.

Don't recommend something with a sex scene without also providing the timestamps to avoid it.

I don't care about romance (genre). Shows with romance in them are fine, it's just the genre.

My focus has historically been sub-par for improv, but try your luck.

I'm generally not interested in non-fiction podcasts, but I am open to natural history stuff.

Will listen to basically anything else.

Violence, gore, body horror etc. all free game/encouraged.

GET READY FOR SEASON FOUR EVERYONE!!!!

[boombox-fuckboy]

Since it's sort of fan art friday, I want to propose something.

Nathan Blades, who features in some excellent podcasts (most notably the core cast of actual-play Campaign: Skyjacks, but with minor roles in some big name audio drama like We Fix Space and Re: Dracula, too) is releasing a new TTRPG (which looks like a blast, honestly), and ahead of that has a fun character-generation system up to try out.

If anyone else wants to roll up and draw/create a character with me (and I'm thinking we could extend it out to 15 or 50 minutes) would we could call it a fan-support friday?

Morning everyone...

Episode 1 is out NOW! Thank you so much to everyone who has helped us, supported us, and given us love over the past several years. This is a dream come true, and it wouldn't be happening without y'all, so thank you.

[boombox-fuckboy]

Something I'd really like to hear more of in podcasts is characters who are or are in systems. And are not treated as scary because of that.

[strangeradios]

This is actually something I'm hoping to do with the audio drama that i'm currently working on! (name pending, as of right now :P.) I'm a system myself, and have similarly wished for more representation (like,,, at all, but especially in audio dramas,) so when i finally decided to just. actually make the podcast I've been wanting to make for years, I figured it'd be the perfect opportunity!

I plan for it to be a mystery/sci-fi/urban fantasy show, centered around Addison, a paranormal investigator who's just upended her entire life to move to the small town of Willowswake, a notorious town with thousands of supposed supernatural sightings.

I don't want to spoil things too much, as Addison's past is going to be a central part of the story's mysteries and plot, but a significant part of the show is going to be revolving around her own plurality, as she figures out how to live as a newly discovered system. I'm really excited to working be with these themes and sharing them with a wider audience, so i wish I could say that this is a series that'll be coming out in a month or two, but unfortunately I am a 1 woman team (well, for a given value of 1 woman. there are many women involved, but only the one body with which to work on it :/) and this is my first time working in the medium as well, so progress will be... inevitably slow.

The Tell No Tales merch store is now live on Shopify!

Tell No Tales Podcast

We've got the designs you'd expect, such as our cover art on hoodies, stickers, tote bags and more...

But we've also got a few new designs that I'm really excited about, including a range of different Better Place logos, and a few new stickers!

Plus loads more on the site!

Distribution and printing is handled through Printful, who have a few international distribution centres, so international shipping should be relatively simplified regardless of where you're ordering from.

As with any new launch, there may be a few hiccups in the early days, so if you're having trouble ordering please do let me know and I'll fix it right away!

Eventually, I'm hoping to use the proceeds from this merch store to help fund S3's production, but unfortunately right now I'm in pretty dire financial straits myself, so any money I make from this store in the immediate future will go towards ensuring I don't lose my flat and keeping me fed while I write the scripts for S3. So if you've ever wanted to support the show, now really is the time to do it!

[0atman]

This was a very personal topic for me to write about in @lostterminalpod , and it remains my favourite story arc. No spoilers, but you don't have to catch up on many seasons to get to it!

The challenge when writing dissociative identity disorder is, as you say, not making it scary or sensational or "hollywood". It can be ANNOYING or INCONVENIENT or HILARIOUS, but it's just a normal part of the character's life. ♥️

[boombox-fuckboy]

Yours is the only one I've actually encountered, and the only reason I can put "more of" in my original post. Lost Terminal is a wonderfully kind show, and the way you approached this arc is no exception.

[haveyoulistenedtothispodcast]

Have you listened to Wake of Corrosion (2021-2024)?

Yes

Partially

No

Never heard of it

Remaining time: 5 days 23 hours

Summary:

A UK based audio drama set in a nightmare ridden, apocalyptic world. An unknown horror grips the country, forcing most of the remaining population into shelter. Tune into the broadcasts from Bunker A:12 and join Professor Ryan as he endeavours to find answers in the wreckage.

[wraithinthemachine]

To make my audio drama more realistic and immersive, I will put myself in similar situations to my characters when I record lines. Scene happens in a car? I will go record myself in the car. Character is sitting while speaking? I will sit in the same position while I record. Scene takes place in the middle of the woods? You bet I'll be recording amongst the trees. Character is bleeding out on the ground? Already called an ambulance just in case.
