Help a queer indie podcast reach our crowdfunding goal this pride month!
We have a wonderful cast and crew, including @thevoicefromthestars , @billielhindle , @fagrajeda , and so many more. Please help us reach our goal tonight!
About us:
An in-production queer time travel workplace comedy podcast. Coming to your podcatcher of choice in Spring, 2026.
The award-winning comedy-mystery audio drama about the (second) best detectives in London is raising funds for its third season!
Our season 3 Kickstarter is live! Fawx & Stallion is a comedy-mystery podcast about the best detective team in London! Not that one. The other one. Across the street, and slightly to the left, at 224B Baker Street. We've successfully solved two mysteries, and we'll need your help to get a crack at a third! Scripts are written, pre-production has begun, and all we need is the funding to make this show's engine start in earnest!
Season one of the show was primarily self-financed, and season two's 10 episodes were crowdfunded and produced for $8000. For season 3, we are telling a story unlike any you've heard, with 12 full-cast episodes. Thank you to our Patreon members who have helped finance our pre-production and our wonderful team of five guest writers! For this season, we are asking for $10,000 to bring this sprawling, absurd, ambitious story to life.
We invite you to check out our crowdfunding page, which is live now, for more info on the season, our budget breakdown, and our fantastic set of rewards (early access! annotated Holmes stories! stickers! for the first time, the opportunity to name a character or provide walla for the show!)
In the interest of highlighting our rewards, take a look at our first set of 4 stickers, because we have an offer for you: help us get $3000 in pledges in the first 72 hours, and we'll add a FIFTH pride-themed sticker to all $30 and up tiers!
More info about the season under the cut!
What can you expect from season 3?
LONDON, 1892! Now established as the go-to detective team in London, Fawx & Stallion are hired by a Canadian showbiz duo who believes they've brought a Curse with them across the Atlantic. The case kicks off a chain of events that sprawl across a rapidly-evolving London and threaten not only the soul of the city, but also the character development of the last two seasons!
As a team, we're always asking ourselves how we can continue to grow with this story, how we can challenge not only our characters, but ourselves - how we can find new ways to expand what this story can be. In doing that, we ended up with a set of scripts that are more ambitious than anything we've attempted before. Some things you can expect out of Season Three:
More Episodes! This season we’re expanding our plate to 12 episodes! That’s 2-to-2.5 more than usual! Why? Keep reading!
More Writers! Part of the concept for this season was to expand not just the world of the show, but even our own conception of it! With that in mind, this season features new mysteries crafted by 5 incredible guest artists including Bob Raymonda (Forgive Me!, Windfall), Newton Schottelkotte (Where the Stars Fell), Christopher Hainsworth (Monstrous Regiment, Midnight Cowboy), Sam Robotham (Dead Coats, Chocolate Grandpa), and Shawn Pfautsch & Jessica Ridenour (The Green Heron; Season on the Line and Captive)!
Serialized Mysteries! That’s right: along with our season-long arc, within this season you can expect full-meal, original, beginning-to-end mysteries! Fawx & Stallion are getting new cases and you are going to see more of them than ever before, in our love letter to the Golden Age of Detective Fiction!
More World Building! One of our favorite things that came from Season Two was getting to explore our version of Victorian London. This season we really dove in on that idea, getting a larger picture of the colorful characters and ludicrous locations that make up the world of the show, including (but not limited to) the West End, the Victorian Culinary Scene, Secret Clubs, the Sewers of London, a Yacht Party, a Trip to the Countryside, and Big Ben!
New Characters! Season Three is easily the most expansive season we’ve done so far, and with that expanse comes a dearth of new characters, new voices, and new stories. We've got over 100 characters in this new season!
Special Surprises! You didn’t think we’d show all our cards in the crowdfund, did you? As much as we’d love to, all we’ll say is this season is so special in the evolution of Fawx & Stallion, the show and characters. Maybe it includes talking animals! Maybe one of them gets a dog! Maybe there are musical numbers! Who knows…?

I probably could’ve said, ‘I know that I’m smart. I know I’m all of these things and more. What does that have to do with you, or you and I?’
I could have made it extremely clear that I had known in my heart, since adolescence and self-awareness came bearing down upon me like a flood, that I didn’t want the same things he wanted, and that if I was certain of any part of myself, I could say right now that I never would want them.
But I wasn’t certain about myself back then, and I still believed there must be something wrong with me, and even if I had been confident or articulate enough to explain who I was, what I did and didn’t want from other people…
…I still don’t think I owed him that.]

Here's a weird request for you all: does anyone know any particularly pretty (and/or podcast related) tarot decks? I need a new one for TTRPG reasons (so, standard tarot cards, not an alternative divination deck) and I might as well get something I enjoy looking at.
Note: I do already own a copy of the WTNV Hayworth deck (gorgeous), but it is currently being stored in another country. I do not need another.

Lestat de Lioncourt (Interview with the Vampire, The Vampire Lestat)
He’s a blonde, French, nondiscriminating menace. He dropped his husband from 2 km in the air. He’s got so many mommy issues. He’s the worst. He’s just like me. I love him.
Derek (Disventure Camp)
the moon to Trevor's sun. Very entertaining personally.
Hey what's the deal with the me and AU theme song? I cant seem to find it or anything about its creator anywhere? Its so cute!
ah, clearly this means it's been too long since I talked up the talents of @sounddesignerjeans2. as I recall she created the theme with no better guidance than a paragraph of word salad and one bar of a Carly Rae Jepsen song that I liked the vibe of, and exceeded my wildest dreams.
I am shocked to realize that it doesn't have a standalone post on this blog from the show's original run, which means it's probably time to dig out my 2021 era external harddrive one day soon.
(Jeans if you're reading this and have a bandcamp or something you want to plug that I haven't had enough coffee to find this morning plz do that instead lol)
in order to have an even amount of characters for round two and also to account for the character who were submitted past the cut-off (who i felt bad for excluding) here is one last poll for round one. this will only last three days - reblog for reach, propaganda is welcome!!
He got hit by a carriage. He’s literally canonically hot. Spoiled rich guy without being a complete ass.
He is a canonically sexy and like, have you heard his voice? DAMN. Everyone is literally falling for this guy. He’s like. The character ever.
Shelby Allen (Hello From The Hallowoods):
Shelby is incredibly strong, carries and cleaver on her at all times, call hot by her girlfriend many times and does some pretty incredible thing to save said girlfriend and believes kiss her (Shelby) must be like kissing a corpse.
We're spending the weekend going over season 3 scripts and I can't emphasize enough how close we are to actually being in a place to make this thing, which means (yay) we are drawing closer to crowdfund shenanigans. For our personal planning:
What crowdfund reward would be most interesting to you as a potential backer of F&S S3?
exclusive stickers
in-character thank you notes
audio thank-yous from characters
annotated scripts/holmes stories
access to our Patreon-only commentary tracks
invite to a backer-only early stream of the premiere with cast and crew
other physical merch options like shirts/pins
the ability to name a (small) character
option to send in audio of yourself or your pet to be used in crowd scenes
some secret tenth thing (we're open to it, tell us!)
