On Saturday 30th November, we're going to be doing marathon fundraising stream for Camlann season 2 from 2pm GMT/10am EDT/7am PDT until 2am GMT.

Our core cast are going to be dropping by, as well as members of our amazing production team. We're also going to be talking to special guests about folklore and medieval history - including Steve Shell from Old Gods of Appalachia, Lauren Shippen from The Bright Sessions, Marc Sollinger from Archive 81, Joe Fisher from Midnight Burger, Eira Major from Remnants and Not Quite Dead, Eleanor and Martin from the Three Ravens Podcast and many many more.  As well as our amazing guests, anyone who tunes in to the stream and donates whilst we're live will be in with a chance of winning some amazing prize! We're printing 9 posters, which are going to feature our beautiful cover art by Elin Manon and be signed by some members of cast and crew. Ross is also making 9 beautiful custom campfire patches. And we're giving away 9 hardback copies of my fantasy and folklore inspired TTRPG, Upriver Downriver, thanks to the generous support of Macguffin and Company.

The soundtrack for Camlann is also going to be released on November 30th and is available to pre-order now from the Tin Can Audio Bandcamp page!

To celebrate Camlann reaching 100,000 downloads, we have released a gapless album version of season one on the Tin Can Audio Bandcamp page. This is a version of the series designed to be listened to in one go, with no housekeeping at the end of each episode.

You can also get HD, CD quality audio files of the series.

Any money raised from sales of the album goes straight into helping us make more Camlann.

Included as a bonus is a blooper reel of the recording sessions and, as a small thank you for sticking around, we've included some highlights here.

Diolch yn fawr iawn am wrando, and keep the fires burning.

This is the final episode of Camlann - for now. If you’d like to join us for our finale listen along with Ella, Amber and some of the cast and crew, you can do that on Tin Can Audio’s Twitch from 8-10pm GMT on Monday 6th May 2024. If you missed it, don’t worry - this and all of our livestreams are available to be watched back on Tin Can Audio’s YouTube channel.

The first season of Camlann was made possible with funding from Creative Scotland and the Inevitable Foundation. We’ll be applying for funding to make more. Funding applications do much better if shows have: high listener figures, public reviews, and if they can provide some of their own seed money to get started. So please consider leaving us a review, donating to our Ko-Fi or Patreon @camlannpod, or just telling a friend about the show. We really appreciate it.

The Welsh folk song Dai is humming in this episode is Lisa Lân, a lament for a dead lover.
