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!

listen to Pal! And also check out The Harbingers!
Want to recommend two new podcasts here. The first is @dead-signals.bsky.social (Conversations With Ghosts). This is made by the brilliant people behind Archive 81 (still one of my favorite things) and the album Generation Crossing. It is, predictably, beautifully written and acted and produced.

Thanks so much for the kind words about Generation Crossing, @gejwatts.bsky.social! (And yes, follow Ella's advice, definitely listen to both Generation Crossing and Conversations with Ghosts!)
Ok, so due to Circumstances it took me a whole year to listen to Generation Crossing by @marcsollinger.bsky.social despite pre-ordering the album. In that time Marc and Dan have made a whole new show (Conversations with Ghosts, go listen!) - but since audio drama is perennial, listen...
