Set in a fictional European republic in the years leading up to World War One, The Kingmaker Histories follows an assistant tailor named Colette who becomes the unwitting host for a deadly alien power source- the Kingmaker Diamond. Hunted by a host of enemies who wish to use her powers for their own gain, Colette's only hope is to join up with a pair of career criminals and embark on a bizarre road trip, smuggling and thieving across Belle Epoque Europe as she seeks to get rid of her lethal new head-mate.

A comedic adventure that is half fantasy and half crime caper, the Kingmaker Histories is a show about living through interesting times without losing your head.

 Created and developed by the team behind the audioverse award-winning Less is Morgue, THE KINGMAKER HISTORIES is a steampunk fantasy adventure about three petty criminals swept up into a magical power struggle for the future of their post-revolutionary home country.

It combines the criminal hijinks of Leverage with the fantastical intrigue of Shadow and Bone, and the dark, absurdist comedy of A Series of Unfortunate Events.

Hey folks! Important update about the future of this Feed! 

We’re still making shows! And this feed will now become the home for all of my weird comedy projects. Each season is a stand-alone limited series. 

I still have plans for expanding the story of 2FEKAF, but since the holiday season is in full swing, I thought you all might enjoy a Christmas story I wrote called, “Christmas Diner” 

Christmas Diner will serve as a five episode Season 2 on this new Anthology show feed we’ll be calling STITCHES. 2FEKAF can still be found as Season 1.

In Christmas Diner: “An unstable man takes the patrons of a small town diner hostage on Christmas Day.” 

And you’ll find many of the same Voice Actors from our previous shows like Zane Schacht, Lauren Grace Thompson, Ryan Philbrook, Addison Peacock, Josh Rubino, Peter Lewis and Blythe Renay.

Hope you all stick with us and enjoy Christmas Diner!

VOICE: Ryan Philbrook

Hey, Folks! Today on the feed we are THRILLED to be able to share with you the pilot episode of a new show we love. It's called called Introducing: Who the F**k Killed My Sister?

Trust me when I say, this is great news for fans of Audio Drama Murder Mysteries. We’re sharing the first episode, but the entire 8-episode first season is available to binge right now. 

The show is smart, funny and thrilling. It revolves around an amateur detective and reluctant true crime celebrity named Quinn. The story picks up a year after her sister's unsolved murder when Quinn finally gets her first big lead, which puts a target on her and everyone close to her. That's what I love about this show.

It doesn't just set up an interesting mystery. It succeeds in delivering answers to all of the questions it raises. You can find and listen to Introducing: Who the F**k Killed My Sister anywhere you listen to podcasts.

A darkly comedic murder mystery podcast telling the story of Quinn Reynolds, a reluctant true-crime celebrity with a violent past.

One year into investigating her sister’s murder, Quinn finds her first major lead — reigniting bitter feuds with the media, law enforcement, and an unhinged group of conspiracy theorists.

Today on the feed we’re thrilled to be sharing the pilot episode of one of our favorite Fiction Podcast Series. We fell in love with this show back in 2019 and now it’s returning with its second season, It’s called WINDFALL. 

Windfall is a dystopian sci-fi/fantasy epic from the team that brought you Forgive Me! Ever since the tyrannical Wanda’s castle appeared in the clouds above Windfall City, its residents have built upwards to meet her. But not everyone is convinced of Her Majesty’s Grace. Our series follows three brothers living on the surface alongside their family (chosen and otherwise), wary of the Queen’s motives, and showcases what they must do to survive in a world that would rather leave them for dead.

Windfall tells an epic story on a small scale, focusing on the everyday lives of regular people in a fantastic world. Featuring a massive cast of characters with wildly divergentpersonalities, the show is at times funny, somber, dramatic, and exhilarating.

Season Two picks up three months after the Season One finale, so whether your new listener or an old fan excited to jump back in, now is the perfect time to return to the world of Windfall.
