Right wrongs. Do mercies. Take flight.

It’s been the joy of my life to work on a show that I love this much. I’ll miss hearing these kids go on new adventures, but I’m so proud of what they’ve been able to do with the time they had.

If you have been a fan of Skyjacks Courier’s Call- thanks for listening! I love you to bits! And if you’ve never checked out the podcast consider giving it a listen now that the show has come to can end.

Does anyone have any recommendations of podcasts that aren’t about death or murder or politics or just other depressing things? Are there any fun and silly podcasts out there? They can be, like, fictional stories, or just someone talking about something. I just PLEASE need recommendations :((

[boombox-fuckboy]

Sure! I'm not sure how non-depressing you want them, so I've played it safe and picked out ten fiction podcasts that I've found good pick-me-ups:

Absolutely No Adventures: (fantasy) A young baker is the chosen one of about a dozen prophecies. He's happy to help out, on the condition that he will be going on absolutely no adventures.

Community Cat News: (Comedy) A radio show by cats, for cats

The Far Meridian: (Slipstream/magical realism) An agorophobic young woman wakes up to find her lighthouse home has moved somewhere completely new overnight. As it continues to travel, she uses the opportunity to look for her missing brother.

Middle:Below: (Supernatural/ Urban Fantasy) Two humans, a ghost, and a cat go on various adventures together to fix ghostly problems.

Sidequesting: (fantasy, adventure, all-ages) Rion is an adventurer like no other: they only do side quests! A wholesome show about avoiding the plot

Skyjacks: Courier's Call: (TTRPG, fantasy, adventure, all-ages) In a world of magic, sky pirates, and giant, rideable birds, three teens become apprentices aboard a flying postal ship.

Starfall: (Fantasy, adventure) A runaway swordswoman finds a place to escape her past with a travelling acting troupe, and discovers the literal and metaphorical magic of the theatre.

Stories From Ylemore: (Fantasy, all-ages) In a modern magical world, three kids (a witch, a werewolf, and a curse-bearer) go on adventures together and make a podcast about it.

The Vesta Clinic: (Sci-fi) Patient records from an interspecies walk-in doctor's clinic on the edge of human space.

Wizard Seeking Wizard: (Comedy, fantasy, romance) A dating show for wizards, hosted by a match-mage to pass the time after being trapped in an orb by his apprentice. Every episode, hear from four wizards looking to go on a romance, friendship, rivalry, or collaborator date, and then next episode hear from the two that got paired up about how their date went.

If you like any specific genres of media or are looking for anything specific, let me know! I've played it pretty safe and might be able to tailor some more recs a little better.

Additional fun audio dramas (short descriptions bc I'm on mobile)

Me & AU - a sweet sapphic romance set in a fandom for a CW-ish fantasy tv series

Unprescribed Journeys - guided meditations that get a little weird

Travelling Light - a sci fi travelogue with a narrator whose voice and style is like a warm blanket

October Jones & Fish With Legs - a fantasy adventure that is just as fun as the title implies

His Royal Fakin' Highness - somehow they made Hamlet as a romcom... And it works

[bekabloodhound]

A few more suggestions to add to the list:

Waiting For October: Follow along as Karo introduces their girlfriend, Yvonne, to a parallel world from which we draw our stories, and some of the many (perfectly lovely) monsters within, all while they try to understand their own place in October.

Wanderer's Journal: Two strangers each find a magical journal that allows them to record their voice, which can then be read or played back by the other. They each go through their own journey while trying to understand these journals that link them.

The Sound Museum: Follow along with Paris as they seek out and record impossible sound artifacts for their museum.

StarTripper!!: Join Feston Pyxis on a roadtrip through the cosmos, as he goes off in search of the best and wildest experiences the galaxy has to offer!

Saffron and Peri: Follow the adventures of Saffron, a fairy godmother extraordinare, and her best friend Peri, a djinnia who runs the magic support department.

Love and labor

I wanted to make something special to ring in the end of Courier’s Call. I spent both several months and just a few hasty weeks knitting up this sweater as a finale present for my friend @worldstoforge. Much of my art making for the show revolved around clothing design so it only felt fitting to make a real item of clothing to commemorate the years working on this show.

I want to write more sappy thoughtful stuff about this show and this team but my brain is mush and my hands are weak from hours of knitting haha. I will leave you with this-

Right wrongs. Do mercies. Take flight.

@zohrankmamdani is reminding us what good government looks like.

[liberalsarecool]

$79 TRILLION.

[worldstoforge]

But that 1% will always point to that hypothetical "moocher" whether its people with disabilities, immigrants, minorities, etc. real easy to rob the bank when the bank isn't even looking at you

[worldstoforge]

I really wish we saw more Star Trek characters leave Star fleet to pursue passions. Most times when we see future versions of characters they are in administration or leadership and I think that that is a very materialistic and 20th century view of what success looks like. And frankly I don’t think that that is very Star Trek of them.

I wanna see Janeway not as an admiral but as the owner of a coffee shop just off the campus of Star fleet academy. Not because she “failed” in Star fleet but because she succeeded and retires to do the thing she has a passion for.

I don’t want to see Picard sad and depressed on a vineyard as short hand for “washed up and a failure”. It’s a post scarcity society. He can do whatever he wants. The idea that he has to grow grapes and that makes him less of a person than when he was an admiral feels gross.

Star trek should not only show us the possibilities of a bright future but also how that future has moved on from marking success as being in charge.

The local oldies station just played "All Star" by Smashmouth. Which was made in 1999 and popularized again in "Shrek" in 2001.

"All Star" is an oldie.

[worldstoforge]

When i was growing up in the 90s my dad would play all his old high school favorites from the 60s. He had them on tapes but we 'd also listen on the "oldies" station. The 60s to the 90s is the same distance that the 90s are to today. Sigh

Gonna be honest, FoM should do that thing where if you don't end up with a marriage candidate, others should step in if applicable.

[worldstoforge]

I grew up in subtropics/tropics Asia and have been in dozens of earthquakes. some were really scary, like sitting at breakfast as a 1st grader and watching as our upright piano danced across the floor before we hunkered under our dining room table. While others were waking up in the middle of the night due to a slight gentle sway of my bed.
