Hi! I'm Cry MJ (he/him), a small queer disabled creator based in the UK. Through Smile Onwards, I've published @twigsandhearts and Mx Bad Luck, and am working on (theoretically) my 3rd and final show, Your Bloodline Dies Here. I love audio dramas with in-universe ads, aro-spec rep, as well as all kinds of disabled rep! These days I mostly listen to Queer Horror but I really do love all things audio drama! Always open to recs!!
EXCITING DAY!!
Our recap episode of season one is now live!! And season 2 episode 1 drops at 7pm BST (in 30 mins)!! We are officially back up and running again!!!
WE ARE LOOKING FOR AD SWAPS!!
Twigs and Hearts is a surreal queer horror audio drama podcast with elements of mystery and found family. We are on our second season, and release episodes the 10th of each month, starting June 2026 with our finale coming out in March 2027. We are looking for both trailer swaps and full episode swaps!

Looking for Polyam podcast recs
I'd love to find more audio drama shows with ethical non monogamy and polyamory in! Off the top of my head I've listened to Kaleidotrope, Monstrous Agonies and the penumbra (a very long time ago). I tend to listen to a lot of queer horror but I'm open to recs from any genre! Bonus points if it has in-universe ads or disabled rep

Your Bloodline Dies Here
Your Bloodline Dies Here follows unlikely metamours from different worlds, vampire slayer Lo and vampire Harvey, as they reluctantly work together to bring back their missing girlfriend. Content Warnings: Mentions of death/dead body, Mentions of government transphobia and a-phobia, Swearing, Violence, Arguing, Mild stalking
Gothic, horror, comedy. This episode is 14:50 minutes long and the show is continuing. Tumblr: @smileonwards
This concept is incredibly fun. I love how the episode jumps right in. Voice messaging your beloveds is not my style but Oh My Gosh do I know a lot of people who prefer it. I don't even know if that's an AuDHD poly thing to The World At Large but it is to me, ahahah. So I was immediately sold on the poly aspect of the show. It was fun and sweet, it really established that relationship to me, the intimate banter of it all. Beautiful storytelling.
And that continues with the way the overall setup of the show is introduced: the unlikely metamours. Aah, the unexplored risks of solo poly! There's really good banter in this episode, with a lot of antagonism (as you would expect, given considering the premise).
The mystery of this show intrigues me. I generally don't engage with vampire media (not an aversion, just... non-interest?) and so I can't really hold/appreciate it next to other vampire media and vibes. From my pov, it's an interesting driving force of conflict and tension. There's the obvious tension between a vampire and a trained slayer. But it also adds a complication to the timer of their search. Harveys has an invisible shackle on the ankle. No matter where the search takes the duo, still have to get back to safety before sunrise.
Also. Gosh. Quite the coincidence for someone to end up with these two as her partners, isn't it? Sure makes you wonder :>
I'm excited to see how this continues.
Put it in your calendars we are officially back!!

yippee - this is what ive been up to between my 8 uni assignments !!
PodJam 2026!!
After how much fun it was to create a pilot with an in-person cast last year, we're coming back again this year with a slightly smaller group! Last year, myself (Cry), Carter Mortem, and Jasper Halcyon produced a sci-fi fantasy about a multi-universe timefunky tavern bar called Inn Between Worlds, Written by Carter with Audio Engineering by me. It was fun to play with recording audio in one room and playing with levels. This year, Jasper and I will be producing a fantasy thriller about polyamory and vampires (more details to come), Written and Audio Engineered by me!
Merging recent listens:
I'm about 50 episodes deep into Monstrous Agonies, and following along with World Gone Wrong as it comes out, and the 2 weirdly go hand in hand. I listen to both, often back to back, while travelling, and it's creating a new secret 3rd world. It feels like listening to 2 sides trying to figure out how to get along when both sides mean well? I've been enjoying both and, I'm not sure what I'm going to do when I finish Monstrous Agonies,,,,
Just listened to the @mechadova-pod pilot episode!! AM running over to donate to their Crowdfunder as fast as I can,,, The voice acting is so fun and all the music and sound design,,, Oh it's so wonderful!! I've never seen a show put spoilers for other media before but honestly that's a really good idea. Very curious to see more about this world and the story!!!
Hi! I'm Cry, a small queer disabled creator based in the UK. Twigs and Hearts is a show I started creating in 2020 that I've been continuously improving. It has disabled main characters voiced by disabled people, and has a lot of weird and surreal horror themes!! One of my favourite characters is Yen Lai, an autistic Vietnamese teen who's mutism is inspired by my own and my friends experiences. After a lot of hard work we are finally crowdfunding for a 10 episode s2 with a goal of £400 by mid March. So if you'd like to get to know Yen and her friends more, consider spreading the word or even donating!! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/twigsandhearts/twigs-and-hearts-podcast-s2
Things I'm excited for in S2:
(if we can get fully funded)
- the aftermath of Zenith & Iris rescuing REDACTED - seeing more ritual pages - Dylan & Freya having bigger story arcs - way more Yen,,, - finally finding out what's up with that deer
Your Artists for S2:
Jasper Halcyon (they/them), Twigs and Hearts Head Artist, voice of Jolly Desolate, and Co-Writer of seasons 1 and 4. They are the artist behind several pieces including the D&D style map of Camp Green! They are a neurodivergent UK based Art Student, and has been making digital art for over 8 years!! Cry MJ (he/him), Twigs and Hearts Creator, voice of many, as well as the main Writer and Producer. He is the artist behind the character reference pieces, the main crowdfunding poster available, and several other pieces. He is a disabled UK based Engineering Student and is very passionate about all things Twigs and Hearts! Want to see the new art for yourself? Consider donating here.
So if you're fully funded, does everyone get paid?
Short answer: no. Long answer: £400 was the minimum calculated to pay everyone outside the producing team. It covers voice actors, campaign fees, international fees, and some of the audio editors. By which I mean it does not cover, script editing, sensitivity reading, transcripts, script writing, social media, directing, producing, sound design, and any audio editing done by myself (Cry) or Jasper. The cover art and music was paid for in season one funding. However, all art and rewards for the season two crowdfunder is also not covered by the £400. This also includes the recap episode. Myself, Jasper and Ryan came into this with an understanding that we would likely not get paid for the majority of our work as we did not for season one either. My hope is to one day gather enough funds through the Patreon to backpay my friends for all the hard work they've put in over the last 5 years. We do this for the love of the show and we're happy to go unpaid. We're just so grateful people are generous enough to help us pay the others and bring the project to life and we're so excited to bring you this season! So thank you all for helping us!
HAPPY ARO-SPEC AWARENESS MONTH!
As a writer on the aromantic spectrum, it's always been important to me to create characters like me that seem to be missing from mainstream media. I struggled a lot with labelling my sexuality because there was nothing to show me it was ok to feel that way. In season one alone, we have 3 canon aro-spec characters who are all very different from each other, and as we get into future seasons I hope to create more! Aromanticism shouldn't just exist in head canons! What's your favorite podcast with aro-spec rep?
For every £50 raised on our Crowdfunder we will be announcing a new cast member!
