Hi! I'm Amy Giacomucci, and I co-create The Godshead Incidental alongside Cara Ehlenfeldt. 

The Godshead Incidental is about an advice columnist and the letter she never answered in the city of Godshead, where D-list celebrities, government officials, and local citizens keeping a low profile can all count a few gods among their number. 

The episode you're about to listen to is Episode 4: Out of Doors. 

After learning about a possible lead in her sister's disappearance from the thief Lorem Ipsum, advice columnist Em decides to get in touch with the nearest and dearest gods in her life. Which is to say, advice columnist Em decides to get in touch with the only gods in her life: her notoriously secretive landlord Tervis, and her boss E.B., the God of Grammar.

"Hi there, my name is Zach Phillips. I’m the co-creator, co-producer, and Dungeon Master for A Single Quest, a 1-on-1 Dungeons & Dragons podcast.

Our show, starring me and my best buddy from high school, Matt Demetrides, focuses on the adventures of a young hero named Toby Flutterheart. Matt plays Toby, who has had a handful of adventures (with varying results) since we started our podcast in February.

Our episodes are short, meant to capture only 1-2 encounters or plot points within a roughly 30 minute window. 

Here, we thought the best way to give you an idea of our story was to start at the beginning - not too much context is needed here, other than to know Toby is a level 1 Wizard, meaning he’s weak and only had a handful of spells and abilities he’s learned by his 16th birthday.

So, without further ado, here is Episode 1 of A Single Quest: A Rough Start. Enjoy!

This is Evan, I play Vaelin on Wonders & Blunders, which is a Dungeons & Dragons Actual Play podcast, meaning we roll dice to help us tell an improvised story. If I had to describe our show I'd say it has a fun horror comedy vibe with a cute family dynamic!. What you're about to hear is Episode 45: Get to the Cabin! The crew has just escaped a wild fight, our halfling is poisoned somehow, and the Evil Hag Liliah is hot on our tail! Thank you for listening.

This is Natalie Winter, the Producer of The Ragged Scratch Podcast. We are an anthology podcast, and aim to bring the new writing night experience to audio dramas, so each season we produce twelve short new-writing audio plays from different writers. Like a chocolate box of audio goodies, there's something for everyone - from hard-hitting emotional dramas, to thrillers, slapstick capers, sci fi, historical dalliances and social commentary, each lasting only 5-10 minutes - so if you're not too keen on one play, something different is right around the corner. Individual pieces have gone on to be aired on the radio and as part of arts festivals, and one piece, The Art of a Doorman, was adapted into a 6 part series - The Art of Ambition - produced this summer and also nominated for 4 Audio Verse Awards. What you're about to listen to is a select few clips from plays and monologues we produced during Season 2 and The Isolation Sessions. Included in the mix are God Love the NHS, by Victoria Taylor Roberts, Performed by Lorraine Hodgson - nominated for ensemble performance, Is This Thing On? by Emily Reader and performed by Sharita Oomeer - nominated for writing, and Help Me Learn by Molly Sweeny, directed by Lorenzo Mason, edited by Kirsty Gillmore and featuring Sara Lynam, Honey Gabriel and Lynsey Murrell - also nominated for writing. Full credits and timestamps for these clips have been provided in the shownotes.

Hello friends! I’m Erik Saras, one of the producers and showrunner for Marsfall: Bunker Down. In this miniseries, we wanted to explore a rarely examined side of the Marsfall universe - what is life like back on Earth? Through the eyes of Doctor Katie Hall, who wakes up in a bunker beneath Earth’s surface, we quickly learn that survival on both the Red and Blue planets is not guaranteed. 

After meeting a robot from the surface named Amadeus, Katie and IT expert Pete Brinkley try to determine if it’s hostile or friendly in this first excerpt from episode 3. After Katie decodes the robot’s musical language, she ventures out onto the surface in order to find more survivors, which you will hear in the complete 5th episode immediately following the first excerpt. 

We hope you enjoy these selections from Marsfall: Bunker Down, and thank you so much for listening and supporting the 2020 Audio Verse Awards.
