New Audio Drama Releases 2023

In honour of the first #AudioDramaSunday of 2023, we thought we'd help you start the year off right by shouting out some other new shows that are premiering/releasing episodes throughout the start of the new year!

@mortsafepod is a ten episode historical audio drama premiering this year, about death, ethics, and dead bodies!

@knovesstorytelling will be debuting Morland P.I, a queer retelling of Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey on January 2nd, which is very very soon!

@leavingcorvat is an upcoming show by the creators of @thedecatapes about a strange desert town where nobody ever leaves.

@humanbgon is a more comedic take on an AI takeover, and has already released three episodes!

The Fause Knight is a strange, fantastical tale of a horse thief and a set of cursed armour, and has also been releasing episodes!

And, us! We've just premiered our first episode and will be releasing throughout 2023. If you're interested in mysteries, cults, or timelines check us out!

(+ a massive thank you to @skyfullofpods and @boombox-fuckboy for helping us find all these amazing shows! Go give them a follow if you haven't!)

Audio Drama Sunday!

It’s been a hot second since I’ve done #audiodramasunday but this week I wanna shout out a few shows that are worth listening to, AND whose cast/creators I have personally seen make the community a better, more supportive place lately. 🎶🏴‍☠️🖤

🤖 First up, say hello to your new AI overlords with @human-b-gon. You’re seeing buzz about this show for a reason- but it’s also worth noting the creators have been on the scene connecting and hyping up other creators for a while now. That’s dedication worth mentioning!

💖 Warmly welcome @starshipqstar to the community y’all! Queer comedic sci-fi with a ton of heart. And let’s GO with this aesthetic. The show may be new, but I already see them going out of their way to interact with and boost other creators.

🐺 OBVIOUSLY @packhowlmedia is on this list. Aside from helping us produce, the creators also run #ADRAID. Our feature this week boosted our numbers and made us new friends! Trust me, connect with these creative mentors and listen to their AD leviathan, The Madness of Chartrulean.

💚 Did you know The Liminal Lands features other shows embedded in their episodes to support them? Or that the creator runs one of the most active Discord communities for AD I’ve ever seen? There’s so much love in there. Go marvel at this family-grown, surreal journey!

💅 Love drag? Camp? Soap operas? Ever wish there was an audio drama that brought these elements together in a series of feature-length stories? @sisterindica-blog may write some of the backstabbiest plots you’ve ever heard, but is a warm presence for creators and is always boosting.

⭐ When I think about support in this community, I think W. Keith Tims (who is not on Tumblr but go follow him elsewhere!) His show Book of Constellations is itself a love note to humankind, and he started The First Episode Of to uplift AD creators (we’ve been guests on it ourselves!)

🎧 Chances are good you know @horrificnathan (@thestoragepapers) and Cole Weavers' (Tiny Terrors) shows, but they deserve a shoutout for all they do. Did you know they also run Phonic Fiction Fest, a community-bolstering AD contest? We are still reeling from the connections and impact even months later.

📚 Speaking of PFF connections, have you seen @amongthestackspodcast's progress? Releasing soon and picking up speed, it’s going to be one to look out for. Nigel is a great ringleader, bringing people together, and I’m excited to see her vision for the infinite library.

✨ @innbetween has brought some wonderful connections into our life and show, and how could they not with the sweet, uplifting community they foster? Also, have you seen how committed they are to interacting with fans while staying down-to-earth? Aspirational honestly.

💜Ok yes I’m also in @careandfeedingofwerewolves, but I stick around for a reason. Listen to a few episodes and you’ll hear more than just a fun modern fantasy. They’ve baked in a ton of advocacy, found family, and blatant callouts on issues that often effect people in AD.

🥛 Lastly, go listen to @ophiuchusradio. They’re not *just* doing it for the bit. OR is funny, smart, and they have a full first season ready to binge. @ghirahims-left-shoe is a powerhouse of AD hype with an impeccable ear for the craft. If she spots your show, you’re seriously blessed.

🖤 I’ve undoubtedly missed some this week (already kicking myself over a few, I'll getcha next time!) but please know I’ve got a lot of love for y’all and this community. Keep creating. Keep uplifting creators who are using their stories to make the world magical. Keep being kind and human. To others, and to yourself.

hey helluva boss critical community, here's a reccomendation for an actually good indie animated show that deserves ur support: humans-b-gone!

basically it takes place in a world were the roles of humans and bugs are swapped. humans are tiny (called "gubs" by the insects), and bugs are big. the main character is rose, a tarantula who takes up a job as the assistant for sophodora, a mantis who runs her own gub exterminating service in formicosa city. there's only six episodes so far but its pretty damn good. plus it's actually sticking to its plot! it also has some really cool worldbuilding, explained by a mysterious cockroach named gregorsa at the end of every episode. the worldbuilding is all bug themed and based in irl science, so thats another neat touch. overall i wholeheartedly recommend this show.

[hishap]

Bug Fables : “the bug characters are regular bug sized! Here, have common human-made objects littered around to give you an idea of scale!”

Humans B Gone! : “the bugs are bigger than our buildings. Yes, there is a well-researched explanation I’ve come up with for how that’s possible in that setting. Here’s links to the scientific papers I’ve used as reference.”

Hollow Knight : “wait you guys have actually thought about the bugs’ actual scale????”

FINALLY hi its ya boy DDP. did you know tht Captchavogue 2024 is live and well? Yes you do now click that link!! i did my best to give them a drag/ballroom twist, hopefully it reads well

theres something about lesbians with a green/purplish colour scheme which happens to be bug themed? (They were more than partially inspired by @humansbgone 's Sophodra and Rose. i fucking love that series go watch it NOW)

with reference to this post

while not technically a "sticker", I couldn't help but imagine macrovolute spiny orb weavers utilizing their spines to hang decorations from

also i only found out that these spiders are like the same size when looking up references for this. wild

Its a bit past friday from where I live but shhhhhhh

uploading this attack separately to mayhaps get some of my bug loving followers to check this webseries out seriously go watch @humansbgone for high quality bug content. Its got fantastic world building and its all based on real entomology complete with actual scientific sources at the end of every episode im not kidding

[jupiterswasphouse]

it's funny to me thinking about the sheer scale between the macrovolutes in Humans-B-Gone! and other bug characters (such as my own)- I have to wonder how Sophodra would react to classic "furry" style/anthro bugs

What. Anyway. I love the look of her – the transition from 2d cartoonishness to semi–realism... and holy shit the animators did their research. Then again, I suppose that might be the point.

Blog's first perfect rating? Possible

FOUND AN EPIC SWAG SERIES!! GO WATCH @humansbgone BC LITERALLY RAAAHHHHH!!!!!! this mantis lady has taken over my brain 👁 large buges good 🤘

[sacredspirit1337]

@revretch I just binge-watched all available content for @humansbgone and adored every second of it! The voice-acting is great, the educational elements are a fantastic addition, and I’ve been thoroughly absorbed into the story and worldbuilding. You’re knocking this out of the park!

The appearance of the Cows was a great twist, and I’m wondering what both the Humans and the Ants are plotting…

And regarding the Gregorsa’s Notes minigame, I achieved a perfect score so far!

Keep up the good work, you might as well catch me and drop me into Sophodra’s collection because I’m hooked!

And I couldn’t help but notice the fragmented pieces of text at the end of each episode…I wonder if they’re eventually all going to fit together…hm…

"Why did they make the mantis sexy" Y'all are cowards. They should make her sexier
