A BLAST to talk to @laurenshippen.com, one of my favorite people in AD. If you want to hear us talking about what it might take for the medium to bReAk OuT, the stuff Dan and I do outside of podcasting (he's made some incredible electronic music, I've written a novel and a play) - take a listen!

anyway, pivoting to video has always been impossible for me bc I make audio drama. doing video would be, uh, making a tv show? and if I wanted to make TV, I would be trying to do that.

I love audio. I love indie audio. if you do too, please help me keep it alive www.kickstarter.com/projects/aty...

There’s still time to back the new @atypicalartists.co show!! It’s got this punk rock Scooby Doo vibe to it and, let’s be honest, if it’s written by @laurenshippen.com you KNOW it’s gonna be good www.kickstarter.com/projects/aty...

We knew we'd love Pluribus because it's Vince Gilligan but a queer woman who is a total mess and pessimistic about the world? That is SO our vibe. If it's your vibe too, you might enjoy TWO THOUSAND AND LATE!

can't wait to plurb it tonight. we love plurbing it (watching pluribus). here at atypical artists we love queer girlfailures who are so mad at everything all the time and swallowed in grief. we love that so much we made a whole show about it called two thousand and late. pod.link/1835711536
