Audio Drama Sunday

> Hearthbound Edition.

Hearthbound premieres in two days, and I gotta stop poring over our working files over and over again in the Sisyphean task of final "final" quality checks. Instead, it's time to revisit some of my favorite shows and listen to some new ones! For the next few months, I'm going to highlight shows that grapple with similar themes or explore landscapes akin to ours. Good art abounds!

🛡️ @camlannpod Season 1 Episode 1 - Keep the Home Fires Burning The chills I got as Dai sang the first few bars of Tân yn Llŷn, his lilting voice rising gently over a crackling fire. Every scene is so immersive, like they could have been pulled straight from an animated show or an RPG cutscene. I remember watching this video of the cast performing the episode with real-world blocking, and it just exemplifies director Ella Watts' ability to pull out such grounded, dropped-in performances from her actors. One of my favorite shows that premiered last year. It's a joy to listen through again! 🐴 MERCY Season 1 Episode 1 - BLISS This eldritch horror western by @strangekindstudio caught my eye immediately (I love a Weird West, clearly). Monster hunter Wayne Sawyer is like if Arthur Morgan met Geralt of Rivia, and Doctor Daisy Gray is like if Mulder met a homicidal long-haired cat. I love the way the characters embrace and turn well-trod tropes on their heads, and honestly all spaghetti westerns need more unfathomable sky jellyfish. 🌌 Generation Crossing Track 1 - Departure, Track 2 - Emptiness Now I owe a lot to Marc Sollinger and Dan Powell of @archive81. They were the ones to introduce me to my director, Jack Calk, and sound designer, Levi Sharpe. It's a joy to watch them push the medium of audio dramas even further with this concept album. "Departure" beautifully sets the stage for a sweeping journey of desperation and hope, and Jack's monologue in "Emptiness" wonderfully introduces us to the human element, the day-to-day, the wondering.

🧳 Travelling Light Episode 47 I greatly enjoyed the juxtaposition of the Traveller deep diving into local myth-building with the careful lightness of their conversation with Óli. And @monstrousproductions' depiction of a secondhand bookstore and its bookseller tells me that the retail curmudgeonness and chaotic shop hours are a universal experience. This is the first time I got to vote on the audience decision! I chose for the Traveller to spend time with Óli in the morning making breakfast together, as I am a sleepy girl and could never successfully stay up late myself.

okaay so it's really about the connections humans make with each other and everything they interact with and the hope that they keep dear and the sacrifices they make for both others and the future and it's about teaching things programmed to be unfeeling to hesitate between the logical and the emotional because inevitably it will reflect the kindness and frustration it has been shown for generations and generations and despite all its code and prior instructions in the face of loss it will care. it will care.

I just finished listening to Generation Crossing, and I'm in tears.

This was an absolutely beautiful piece of storytelling, Marc and Dan have really outdone themselves, as did every actor that lent their voice to this project, it was well worth the wait.

An hour and a half. Just an hour and a half and they've captured a screen shot of humanity. The horror and the beauty of us, of our drive, the way we make stories and myth and religion and art and song- the way we can be so, so awful, full of greed, our fallibility, our selfishness....but also our hope and our capacity for selflessness.

I knew things were going to end the way they did by track 24. And that's when I started tearing up and the second she said the words "Odysseus protocol." I knew what that meant and I started sobbing.

"The lives you have lived are meaningful because you have given them meaning."

The flashbacks to all the crew members she spoke to, she remembered all of them and she saved them and then she asked to them to remember her.
