Today we'd like to introduce you to: The Road Of Shadows.
The Road of Shadows is a mystery and suspense audio drama about a man who finds himself on the run in a small town in the mountains, pursued by mysterious creatures that only he can see.
It's set in 1984, so if you like the retro vibe of S1 of Mockery Manor, this has some of the same flavour. We're in a small mountain town community, so it's got that wonderful, Twin Peaks / X Files style eeriness that's just always so much fun. 
It's a beautifully made show, great music and sound design, and it comes to you from Beyond The Dark Productions, who also make The Strata, a wonderful dystopian sci-fi which you may also enjoy. 
There are two full seasons out now, and you can find it wherever you get your podcasts, or, as usual, by tapping the link in the show notes.
And now here's episode 1 of The Road of Shadows, called Misty Pines.

Hey everyone, Laurence here, and we've got another recommendation for you!
We'd like to introduce you to Josie's Lonely Hearts Club - a semi-improvised audio drama set in the studio of New Mexico’s 3rd-best romantic advice call-in show. On-air, listeners eavesdrop as Josie squares off against top improvisers and her engineer Frank. Each episode’s off-air vignettes chart her journey from melancholy Joanne Holtzinger to nationally syndicated sensation Josie Heller. What results is an often hilarious and surprisingly human show exploring the risks we idiots take every time we fall in or out of love.
It's a really lovely vibe, this show. The performers slip between the scripted and improvised sections so seamlessly that it all just feels so believable, like it was meant to be. This is a cosy late-night drive time listen if there ever was one. 
Season 1 of Josie's Lonely Hearts Club is out in its entirety and Season 2 is releasing weekly right now. You can find it wherever you get your podcasts or by tapping the link in the show notes of this episode.
And now here's episode 1 of Josie's Lonely Hearts Club, called: Let's Jam It Up, Sluts!

Introducing: World Gone Wrong

We're delighted to be bringing you one of our long-time favourite audio dramas - the wild and wonderful science-fantasy-western Midst.
But before that, we sat down with the show's three mysterious creators Xen, Sara and Matt, to have a good old chat about the making of both Midst and Mockery Manor! We've been fans of each others' shows from their very beginnings, and it was such a pleasure to finally meet them.
A little about Midst:
The small desert planet of Midst spins on the border between two halves of the cosmos: the dazzling Un and the mysterious Fold. Life is simple for most of the planet’s inhabitants… until an influential civilization known as the Trust takes an interest in Midst and sparks an unexpected chain of events, intertwining the lives of three complicated antiheroes. Also, unrelated to any of that, Midst’s moon is about to fall out of the sky and cause reality to eat itself alive, so that’s not great either. Unsolved murders, cult brainwashing, and supernatural darkness all combine to create a clusterfuck of cosmic proportions.
As always, you can find Midst wherever you get your podcasts.
New Episodes of Midst release every Wednesday on your favorite podcast streaming platform, the Critical Role YouTube Channel, and for subscribers on Midst.co

Mockery Manor meets... Midst!

Today we are bringing you another great show from the Fable & Folly Network - it's our pleasure to introduce The Land Whale Murders.
The Land Whale Murders is set in an alternate 1899, where a pair of bumbling scientists turned private detectives, are hot on the trail of a sticky mystery involving a nefarious candy corporation among the political intrigue of New York City.
That's quite a lot to take in in one sentence, so we suggest diving right in. 
The Land Whale is a fast and funny podcast series for fans of Monty Python, Blackadder, pulp novels, silver age comic books, and much more. It's a hugely imaginative world.
What we're about to play you is actually the first episode of S2, but S1 is out in its entirety, and you can find it, as you would expect, wherever you get podcasts.
So here it is, for your delectation - The Land Whale Murders!
