These 10 great, short audio dramas are perfect for a fiction podcast book club.
Do you want to listen to more fiction podcasts with your friends? Setting up a book club is pretty socially acceptable, but trying to convince a small group of people to listen to all four seasons of Wolf 359 in a week is apparently ‘kind of a big ask’. These 10 great shows are loads of fun, and you can get your favourite people to finish them with you. If you’ve ever wanted to start an irl podcast club, this is your sign…
what is it called when you've listened to too many audio drama podcasts and now cant remember exact details from any of them but they have stolen a part of you and now you've got a constant reminder within your own heart of how there is always something to reminisce and be fond about, even if memory fails you.
redraw of an old timeline thing i did for my fic 'mark midland (daniel jacobi) and his big gay posse of ghosts' ...old ver under the cut
If I had a pound for every time Noah Masur voiced a character that worked with explosive devices, and was gay for his boss, and watched fireworks with said boss, who had a connection to a Unit 214, who met at least one character voiced by zach velenti and had at least one of these characters make him a drink, who worked as part of a trio, who was written by gabriel urbina, I'd have £2, which isnt a lot but damn guys.
What is the worst way you’ve ever seen someone misinterpret a piece of fiction that you produced?
Hah! You know... honestly it happens very rarely. Like... I think most of the readings/theories about my shows that bubble up to me are one of
A. A correct reading of the text/a good anticipation of what's coming, which is always nice.
B. Something that is... slightly to the left of what we're doing, but is still really interesting and in good conversation with the show. (And a lot of the time, most of what falls into this category is something we talked about doing and then discarded along the way.)
Or C. Something that is probably not in line with the canon but is, for lack of a better term, totally fucking rad? Like, if somebody writes a long post explaining why Isabel Lovelace is for sure in a drag street racing gang back on Earth... whether that aligns with my understanding of the character of not, that is objectively totally fucking awesome.
Most of what gets to me is in one of those categories. A is great because it makes you feel like people got what you were going for, so hell yeah. B is great because it validates the larger ideas around the shows, so hell yeah. And C is great because people are taking the characters past the point where you left them and making them their own, which hell fucking yeah.
Truly unhinged takes that are, like, fighting to swim against the information current of the show are very rare. Like, practically no one is ever like, "Wolf 359 is a story about the virtues of maximal capitalism!" (It's not.) Or "Time:Bombs is all about how effective traditional masculinity is!" (It's not.) No one thinks that Marcus Cutter was justified in what he was saying, that Harry Winter was invalid for feeling the way she did, that Faith Adler was a treatise on the dangers of falling in love, or that my version of Mina Harker needed to just shut up and get back in the kitchen. Simply put, I think most fiction podcast listeners have enough media literacy to pick up a lot of what I'm putting down without twisting it into a totally deranged take. (And again, most of the deranged takes I do see fall into category C, being both harmless and awesome.)
If I had to say something... I will admit to a certain degree of... puzzlement when people talk about my shows as a source of escape? Because... maybe they are, in the sense that you get to go into a fictional world and spend time with characters that are very separate from your real life, usually with at least one vampire, magic spell, space station, or Radio Bob Special thrown into the mix for good measure. But they always feel like they're reflecting and refracting the real problems, issues, fears, traumas, and violences that we deal with in the real world. Humans are always humans, and whether we get magic or travel 8 light years away from Earth, we'll always bring our shit with us wherever we go, and that collision of fantastic setting with real problems is where a lot of the drama I find fascinating to write, to direct, and to produce lives. So yeah, the reading of my writing as escapist always raises my eyebrows a bit. But I suppose if it works for people, who am I to say it's wrong!
