In the second unearthed installment of Zyngia NOW!, disgraced magic-school headmaster turned podcaster Periwinkle Fishmongerson Rimplepoor sits down with some very special guests: three of Stan Little’s many half-human, half-everything-else children. As accusations of nepotism swirl across the realm, Rimplepoor attempts to get to the “truth” with the help of his court-ordered companion, LegitiCut, the Sword of Truth.

Another lost recording from Zyngia is here! Spoiler Alert: If you haven't finished StanLand, we recommend you do that first.

Professor Rimplepoor, Stan’s old teacher from the Wizened Wand School of Magical Enchantment, seems to have started his own podcast sometime after the events of StanLand. In this first episode, he talks about the new leadership in Zyngia and interviews a few... questionable guests.

From the producers of StanLand comes another installment of The Lost Podcasts of Zyngia: a newly unearthed audio archive that’s reshaping everything we thought we knew about the residents of Zyngia... and perhaps podcasting itself. This time, you may recognize a familiar con man’s voice: Professor Rimplepoor, Stan’s former instructor at the Wizened Wand School of Magical Enchantment and the wise old elf who once tried to rope Stan and Melanie into several multi-level marketing schemes. Now he's trying his hand at podcasting and he's joined by some very intriguing guests.

This audio is sourced from the Leapfrog children's digital recorder belonging to Stan Little, which was found in Poolesville, Maryland, and sent to the WSUS offices by a man named Randy. We're releasing them on this feed in hopes that they might help us to win even more awards. And for your entertainment, of course.

Enjoy this teaser for: ZYNGIA NOW! with Professor Rimblepoor

Episode 1 is coming November 11!

The next StanLand spin-off mini-series is on the way! Episode 1 is coming November 11. And RANDY, an old Mike Sacks series, is coming out of the vault in the new year.

In the meantime, here's a fun show we think you'll love!

Sorry About The Murder takes place in the nice-little town of Beavermount, Ontario, where every day someone ends up dead, and it’s up to a Zamboni driver-turned-detective, Gaétan “Frenchie” Arsenault, to solve the case and clear his Québecois name… all before he has to clear the ice for tonight’s hockey game.

Equal parts “cozy small town” and “absurd murder mystery”.

The conclusion of Dumpsters and Deadbeats is here.

Chip McSparklebottom’s chaotic role-playing game finally reaches its endgame as orc couple Ookla and Ghashara stumble from knife fights and angry mobs straight into a fried chicken restaurant that may promise salvation ... or salmonella. Along the way, old wounds resurface as Chip finally reveals his feelings about his father, Stan.

The mysterious toy recorder delivered to WSUS Raleigh continues to reveal strange new audio files. Once again, intern Casey Bingham brings us Dumpsters and Deadbeats, a role-playing game dreamt up by Chip McSparklebottom, half-leprechaun, reluctant heir to Stan Little, and self-proclaimed “dumpster master.”

In this second installment, Chip’s orc players, Ookla and Ghashara Bloodspear, claw their way out of a burning apartment only to face new horrors of modern Earth: dead phones, protestors at the library, complicated exes, and the eternal struggle of acquiring dinner. As their misadventures deepen, the orc couple discovers their own clothes have been stolen by teenage toughs. Will rolling twenties be enough to save them this time?

Welcome back to Zyngia. 

An ancient children’s toy from the 1990's was found by the side of the road in the same area where Melanie Hughes’s recorder was first discovered containing the StanLand tapes. The toy recorder was sent to us at WSUS Raleigh by a mysterious man calling himself "Randy". It contains strange new audio files that appear to be recorded by Zyngians.

In this debut episode of The Lost Podcasts of Zyngia, intern Casey Bingham introduces us to Dumpsters and Deadbeats: a simple role-playing game hosted by Chip McSparklebottom half-leprechaun, reluctant heir to Stan Little, and self-proclaimed “dumpster master.” Along with orc couple Ookla and Ghashara Bloodspear, Chip beta-tests his thesis project at the Wizened Wand School of Magical Enchantment: a role-playing game set in modern-day Earth. Will they make it out alive?

Here's a show we think you’ll love while you wait for your next trip to StanLand.

Today we’re sharing Episode 1 of Woodbine, the latest series from Alex Nursall and Emily Kellogg, the creators of the award-winning horror podcast Parkdale Haunt.

Woodbine follows Beatrice Ashe, who’s pulled into Toronto’s supernatural underworld after a brutal attack gives her a second chance at life. Alongside her enigmatic boss, Grace Hawthorne, Bea works for the Woodbine Agency, a detective firm tackling cases with vampires, monsters, and other strange mysteries.

If you like how StanLand blends dark comedy, fantasy, and complex characters, you’ll love Woodbine. It’s got queer vampire detectives and a mix of horror, comedy, urban fantasy, and a little romance.

Season 2 premieres September 24th, so now’s the perfect time to start from the beginning.
