In this episode of Audition Hell, we replay a previously recorded casting breakdown that contains racially coded direction. We call out the client and casting team for letting it slip through.
The episode moves from satire to serious critique, urging actors, casting directors, and agencies to be responsible, stop forwarding offensive directions, and demand basic human decency in casting.

Audition Hell: When a Casting Breakdown Crosses the Line

Audition Hell is a bold, brutally honest audio series that calls out the absurdity of modern casting. From laughable self-tape requests to unpaid "opportunities," we break it down with wit, heat, and a whole lot of “did they really just ask for that?”
Against garbage disguised as opportunity. Against being treated like we should be grateful for scraps. Against silence when the system is broken.
It’s not just a rant. (Okay, it’s a little bit of a rant.) But it’s also a movement—for talent who are tired of playing nice when the game is rigged.
If you’ve ever screamed “What the hell is this?” at a casting notice— you’re in the right place.
