- The Bright Sessions - Lauren ShippenWriter, director, actor, and producer Lauren Shippen joins me for a conversation about anxiety, archery, P.G. Wodehouse, the Alexander Technique, and so much more, as we dive into her captivating podcast, The Bright Sessions.
Dr. Joan Bright is a therapist who specializes in "therapy for the strange and unusual". Each one of her patients experiences symptoms that aren't in the DSM-V. This show is by turns fascinating, delightful, and heartbreaking, and I can't wait to show it to you.56 min - Radiation World - Episode 1 & Interview with Hari Rai and Sahib Simran Khalsa
This week, we're playing episode 1 of Saster & Saster's RADIATION WORLD; later I'll speak with the show's creators, Hari Rai and Sahib Simran Khalsa.
In RADIATION WORLD, all that remains of humanity is locked away inside a bunker, deep beneath the earth -- or so they think, until The Visitors arrive. The show is a deeply wacky adventure, equal parts Fallout and Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy.
You can support the Khalsas' show at https://www.patreon.com/radiationworld.

She's great, and she wants you to scare the crap out of her with your own Deathscribe play! Check that out here:

Content warning: spooky business, jump scares, swear words, body horror, bad relationships1 hr 3 min - Starlight Radio Dreams - 'The Merry Wench Wendy'This week, we get SILLY with a little Starlight Radio Dreams – a live variety show recorded in Chicago by veterans of Chicago's theater scene. Starlight Radio Dreams is hosted by Devin Showtime (Anna Gaetke), a media-savvy Millenial, and her old-timey uncle Burlington Showtime (Ansel Burch), a film star of days gone by. It's all oh so very goofy; mouth foley and bad puns abound.
This week, you'll hear a little snippet of SRD, including not just the show's frame narrative of Burlington and Devin Showtime, but one of their four radio serials as well: The Merry Wench Wendy, a steampunk adventure about pirates, revenge, and collectible card games.1 hr 20 min - Kraken Mare - from Yap AudioThis week, we take a dip into the chilly methane seas of Titan with "Kraken Mare", an atmospheric sci-fi horror thriller from friends of the show Matthew McLean and Robert Cudmore of the Audio Production Podcast.
When plucky British astronauts descend into Kraken Mare, the largest sea of Saturn's strangest moon, they don't know just what they'll find. And they certainly aren't expecting what's about to find THEM.
Enjoy!
The post Episode 433 – Yap Audio’s KRAKEN MARE appeared first on Radio Drama Revival.30 min - Wolf 359 - 'Extreme Danger Bug' & Interview with Emma Sherr-Ziarko and Zach ValentiThis week on Radio Drama Revival, it’s the comic sci-fi thriller Wolf 359. This genre-bending show, by turns endearing, intense, terrifying, and hilarious, is a delight to listen to - and its stars are a delight to talk to!
Wolf 359 is the story of a lonely little space station orbiting a red dwarf star, and the four personalities aboard it: Commander Renée Minkowski, a badass astronaut who has literally memorized the book on deep-space survival; Alexander Hilbert, a scientist who may or may not be utterly nuts; Hera, one of the most sardonic artificial intelligences in audio fiction; and Doug Eiffel, the lazy-but-lovable communications officer (and narrator).
Join me as I play Episode 10 of Wolf 359 - “Extreme Danger Bug” - and then sit down with Emma Sherr-Ziarko and Zach Valenti, two of the show’s stars. It’s sure to be a wild ride.1 hr 4 min - Wooden Overcoats – Episode 1 & Interview with David K. Barnes and Andy GoddardThis week, we take a trip to the drizzly English village of Piffling Vale, where undertaker Rudyard Funn discovers he's no longer the only mortician in town in Episode 1 of the fabulous indie sitcom WOODEN OVERCOATS.
Later in the show, I talk with David K. Barnes and Andy Goddard, the head writer and co-producer of WOODEN OVERCOATS. Fun is had, velvet is worn, and we all learn a valuable lesson about Sitcom Theory.
The post Episode 431 – Wooden Overcoats – David K. Barnes and Andy Goddard appeared first on Radio Drama Revival.1 hr 9 min - Hadron Gospel Hour - 'HeadHatz and Horror Hosts' & Interview with Rich WentworthThis week:
It's a non-stop carnival of freaky tiki madness as I chat with Rich Wentworth, the co-creator of Hadron Gospel Hour.
Rich and I talk about glam rock, how he and co-creator Michael McQuilkin got started in audio drama, and whether or not everything is going to be okay (spoiler alert: it is going to be okay).
Our feature this week is Season 1, Episode 8 of Hadron Gospel Hour: "HeadHatz and Horror Hosts".
Mike brings a stylish new hat into the Hadron Bunker, but Oppenheimer is far too busy with his continuing education class to notice the sinister nature of his pal's new chapeau. Will Oppenheimer, A.S.H. LE and Cyrus be able to stop this menace in time? Or will the crew find themselves bowlered over? (S'aright? S'okay.)
Enjoy, folks!
-David

Liquor!
Gods!
A drunk lady rattling off the names of animals!
I talk to Ben Acker of the Thrilling Adventure Hour, and play one of my favorite episodes of Beyond Belief: "White Hunter, Drunk Heart".
Those wacky married mediums, Sadie and Frank Doyle (Paget Brewster and Paul F. Tompkins) are on an adventure in the Serengeti -- but when they kill a god's favorite lion, have they taken it a step too safari?
-David
The post Episode 429 – Ben Acker and the Thrilling Adventure Hour appeared first on Radio Drama Revival.54 min - Alba Salix, Royal Physician - 'To Market, To Market' & Interview with Eli McIlveenThis week:
Witchcraft!
Charlatans!
A Canadian plot to annex the United States?(!)
David begins with a brief bit of history on John R. Brinkley, the notorious Goat Gland Doctor of Milford, Kansas. A bit of quackery seemed relevant given today's episode, which features an episode of Alba Salix, Royal Physician, a fantasy hospital comedy. The episode we're playing features an ethically dubious patent medicine.
After the feature, David has a chat with Alba Salix show creator Eli McIlveen.
Enjoy!
