It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's--wait, no, yeah, it's a plane, and also maybe some birds, too. But it's also Lauren Shippen and John Dryden of Radiotopia's Passenger List in conversation with David Rheistrom. This interview features ruminations on air travel, discussions of inclusivity in writing and casting, and speaking of casting, there's also discussion of our queen, Patti Lupone.

Westerns, burlesque, Supergiant's Pyre, and creating in spaces you've never seen yourself--it could only be an interview with the amazing, brilliant Tau Zaman of CARAVAN. As a heads up, this interview gets sexually explicit, so be sure to listen only if and when you can do so comfortably.

Something’s afoot in Even Greater London, a nightmarish victorian metropolis that stretches from Wales all the way to the Isle of Man. Queen Victoria, having survived numerous assassination attempts, has been biotically welded to poor Prince Albert. And the great black Tower of London beams wireless electricity throughout the great city, providing everyone with limitless free energy but somehow in no way reducing their immiseration.
If you enjoy Victoriocity as much as we do, consider supporting their work!

This week, we're playing the first episode of Onion Public Media's A Very Fatal Murder—it's a spot-on parody of all the true-crime programs you love to binge, from Serial to S-Town to The Staircase.
I got to talk to series directors Ryan Natoli and Fran Hoepfner, and writers Louisa Kellogg and David Sidorov. Sidorov plays David Pascall, the host and protagonist of A Very Fatal Murder. We talk about the Onion pitching process, translating the techniques of short-form video to audio fiction, and Fran's Discarded Teens (a show I wish existed).

This week, we're playing an episode of the roleplaying podcast Join the Party, a hybrid actual-play and audio drama by some talented producers and performers out of New York. Gather round the table and get immersed in DM Eric's tale of the Concentric States. Inara, Johnny, and TR8C must be fleet of foot and quick of wit to catch up with the Red Throat gang, who have captured the beloved Prince Alonzo!
Actual-play RPG podcasts have spiked in popularity recently, and I wanted to highlight a successful and compelling one. Join the Party uses collaborative storytelling and imaginative game mechanics to help produce something new, interesting, and exciting.

Professor Neil Verma joins me to discuss his essay series, “The Case for Audio Drama”. He’s a professor of Sound Studies at Northwestern University, and a longtime scholar of audio drama. We discuss the history of the form, and areas of his particular interest: radio drama from the 30s through the 50s. But we don’t just talk about old stuff! Professor Verma is as excited as I am about the audio fiction being produced today.
Join us as we connect the styles and conventions of the vibrant old stuff to the vibrant new stuff!

As a note, Alexander Charles Adams now uses they/them pronouns.
This week, Alexander Charles Adams of SMASH/CUT joins me to discuss their piece, “Hi, I’m Mattie (HIM)”.
Matthew Cavan is an actor and drag queen in Belfast, Northern Ireland; they came out about their HIV-positive status in 2010, and has since faced a torrent of criticism, shaming, and even death threats. The piece we’re playing today, “Hi, I’m Mattie”, is a verbatim piece -- that is, the script is taken word-for-word from interactions that Mattie had on the gay dating app Grindr, where they disclose their HIV-positive status up-front.
Afterwards, Alexander (the producer of the piece) joins me to talk about the origins of SMASH/CUT, and many other things besides!

NOTE: This interview took place before Daniel Mallory Ortberg came out as a man, so you'll hear me call him by his previous name and use female pronouns.
Here are the rest of the show notes as they ran in May 2017:
We conclude our two-part conversation series around The Handmaid's Tale, which you can find in an Audio Drama form over at Secrets, Crimes, and Audiotape. This week, I had the great pleasure of talking to Mallory Ortberg, a writer, culture critic, and advice columnist. She's Dear Prudence over at Slate, and she used to run a magnificent site called The Toast.
In this episode, we discuss:
The Handmaid's Tale and White Feminism
How to avoid becoming an Internal Expat
* Fending off the Republic of Gilead
and much, much more!
This week, we’re playing Wynabego Warrior: The Tale of John Waynnabe (eagle screech), the wacky western epic by Audioblivious Productions. John is a mysterious drifter who drives around the West(ern part of Kentucky) in a souped-up RV, righting wrongs. It’s a rollicking good time!
Later on, I chat with Austin, who co-founded Audioblivious Productions and plays John in the show.
This week, say goodbye to Spooktember and HELLO TO SHOCKTOBER! Thunderbolt
We’re beginning a month of spookitude, commencing with John Ballentine and Campfire Radio Theater. This piece is called “Woods Ferry”, about a band of weekend treasure hunters who travel to a South Carolina ghost town, only to discover ~exactly~ why it was abandoned.
This is a binaural piece; listen with headphones if you can!
This week, we're playing episode 1 of Saster & Saster's RADIATION WORLD; later I'll speak with the show's creators, Hari Rai and Sahib Simran Khalsa.
In RADIATION WORLD, all that remains of humanity is locked away inside a bunker, deep beneath the earth -- or so they think, until The Visitors arrive. The show is a deeply wacky adventure, equal parts Fallout and Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy.
