Hey, I’m Tim Barnes, you are the genre, and this is a preview of an upcoming scripted audio series that I have coming out February 11th called JUDGE TRAVIS, which you should subscribe to now wherever you listen to podcasts! I’ll be interviewing people involved with the show here on You Are The Genre as we switch to a Monday release schedule between February 9 and March 16.

JUDGE TRAVIS is your front-row seat to the behind-the-scenes chaos of America’s favorite fake TV judge. Through the guise of leaked audio, listeners eavesdrop on the absurd drama unfolding behind the bench of the reality television court show, JUDGE TRAVIS. Starring Bashir Salahuddin (SOUTH SIDE), Langston Kerman (INSECURE), Brandi Denise (POWER), Keesha Sharp (GIRLFRIENDS), Amber Ruffin (LATE NIGHT WITH SETH MEYERS) and George Wallace (CLEAN SLATE).

Created and directed by television writer Tim Barnes (THE TONIGHT SHOW, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central), Judge Travis draws inspiration from classic Hollywood-satire comedies like THE BERNIE MAC SHOW and THE LARRY SANDERS SHOW. Court shows are one of America’s favorite pastimes. But why do we love these stern authority figures? And who are the real people behind those robes? JUDGE TRAVIS proves the answers to those questions are crazier than anything you’ve ever seen on TV.
