[i-swear-this-is-for-homework]

People keep asking me if I named Avery Beck after Chris Beck, the flight surgeon from The Martian, and I have to look them in the eyes and tell them no, I named her after one of the animal talent fairies from Disney’s never land fairy picture books

[i-swear-this-is-for-homework]

Yeah. This one.

An illustrious namesake

And, just like that, the HAVOC crew is back together! It’s been a long, strange road - over the past few months, we’ve had to get funding for remote recording equipment, purchase that equipment, and wait for it to make its long, slow way through the mail system. But good things have been happening, too! Two of our members - Fitz (the voice of Noah Anderson) and Coop (the voice of the Director) - have graduated college! Our writing team has been finishing up the series scripts! We can’t wait to bring the rest of this show to you guys!

[havoc-podcast]

Hi everyone! HAVOC is still on hold as we wait for recording equipment to make its way through the mail system, but we hope to get new episodes out soon! In the meantime, you can check out our new website for access to our recording scripts, cast and crew bios, and behind-the-scenes photos! And if you’re enjoying the show so far, please consider leaving us a rating or review on iTunes. We’re a tiny show, and we guarantee that we read (and treasure!) every single review.

HAVOC has been on a quarantine-mandated hiatus for the past few months, and to be honest? We kind of forgot we had a tumblr. Oops. But we’ll be back soon with new episodes coming June 2020! In the meantime, check out our new website for information on the HAVOC crew, including our scripts, RSS feed, cast bios, and behind-the-scenes photos.

Whose footsteps are plaguing Dr. Beck? Why won’t the lights stay on? And who, exactly, is this less-than-helpful radio operator? Find out in “Tread Lightly,” our third episode, available now on all podcasting platforms! 

[i-swear-this-is-for-homework]

If you need a new podcast while in quarantine (or just a short show to burn through while you wait for Season 5 of tma), you should give @havoc-podcast a try! I wrote it so I’m a little biased, but I think it’s pretty great! If you like mysterious space transmissions, ghost ships, and vague cosmic horror, HAVOC will be right up your alley.

[havoc-podcast]

Meet the cast and crew!

Next up is Kat Leone, our fantastic composer. Music can add so much to an audio drama, and Kat’s work sets the perfect spooky tone for our show. Check her out on SoundCloud! https://t.co/m1Y6pey30U?amp=1

Just finished listening to the first episode of HAVOC, a sci-fi horror audio drama. In the first episode, a NASA radio operator receives a distress call from a space station that has been silent for seven years after a mysterious tragedy left its inhabitants dead (presumably? There’s still a lot of mystery to unravel here). 

It’s really good, and I’m really looking forward to the rest of it! The first ep did a good job of setting up the characters and mystery, and I can’t wait to see how everything plays out from here. And I’m always a sucker for a good “impossible radio transmissions slowly unravel a horrible mystery” story, which this is definitely shaping up to be. 

The first episode is 12 minutes long and I believe the podcast as a whole is meant to be 10 or so episodes, so it’s also a good choice for anyone looking for a shorter/contained podcast. Either way, I recommend it so far and can’t wait to see where it goes!

[havoc-podcast]

Thank you for the excellent review! We hope you enjoy the rest of the show.
