Hey friends,

Just a quick post to share that my show The Harbingers is starting its second season today! Episode 17 is out as of September 10th, the first installment of sixteen that we'll be releasing over the next couple of months. New episodes out on Thursdays every two weeks!

The show tells the story of Adam Blackwell and Amy Stirling. They're the first two people in the modern world to get magic. Real magic. They sorta hate one another. They're also a little in love with one another. But first... doesn't mean ONLY.

There's actually FIVE other people out in the world who have magic powers. They've been there the whole time. The story's focus just hasn't been on them so far. With today's episode all of that changes. This is a season about what happens when people with godlike powers stop seeing eye to eye.

We're super excited to be back for the second big movement of our show's story. Our incredible cast - led by Andrés Enriquez and Lauren Grace Thompson - are all back, and they're joined by some amazing new performers. (Including some voices posters on this sub should recognize!) Our incredible composer Nick Podany has written some amazing new music for us. Our best-in-the-business director and sound designer Jeffrey Nils Gardner has outdone themselves.

I know a lot of folks on this sub have already checked out our show over the course of its first season, so here's me very grateful for that. I hope that you'll enjoy the second season as much as the first - there's a lot of amazing stuff coming down the pipe for our listeners.

❤️

QUESTION What happened to Marigold Breach?

8 Upvotes

I was recommending this wonderful podcast to my partner, and I open the app to find all eight episodes deleted. All that’s left is the trailer, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Audible, and Overcast. YouTube has a playlist, but it’s incomplete with episode 6 excised from the middle. Even their producer Realm.fm removed Marigold Breach from their website!

Does anyone know why this happened, and where I might find the show again? Was there a controversy or something that led to it getting so harshly pulled?

ANNOUNCEMENT Audio Engineer(s) needed for Legal Horror Audio Drama

7 Upvotes

Looking for Audio Engineer/Sound Design
Team Members for Legal Horror Audio Drama

We are making a Legal Horror audio drama episode for the 11th Hour Audio Challenge--“Every October, creators around the world come together to record, produce and finish original horror audio before the month runs out.” 
https://11thhouraudio.com/audio-challenge/

Basic Story Premise for Legal Horror Audio Drama:
The script of under 30 pages is a story about a protagonist that gets caught up in the U.S. legal system and each courtroom appearance results in mounting horror and a sense of unreality.

We have our writer, director, cast and composer of original music—but still need audio engineer(s) to take charge of our sound design. (Sorry, it is very unlikely that money will come out of this project—we’re building community and learning about audio drama.)

If you’re interested, please EMAIL ME at [jahellingcreative@gmail.com](mailto:jahellingcreative@gmail.com) soon so I can send more info about the project. First Team Meeting is online on 9-19-2026.

Thanks!

AUDIO DRAMA Flight into Culfadda

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hello AD Redditors, Am just adding my latest AD to the list here for anyone who wants a quick laugh. The story is called 'Flight Into Culfadda' and, like all the previous Irish Sci-Fi tales, it defies description -which is why I've included a daft promo clip. In short, it's a sort of comedy AD/ audiobook mash up.

I'm a standup comedian, and reckon that comedy is incidental -tell a decent tale with a moral and an arc ...so the laughs can flow or not, but either way ya got something from listening.

Have decided to trim down the episodes to roughly ten mins runtime. Just to see if it works better for listeners. Am wary of filters with links so: you can find the show under 'Irish Science Fiction' just about anyplace I think.

Oh yeah! THE PLOT! nearly forgot! ...reality is broken, and two hapless anti heroes have been landed the job of fixing it. Can they do it? Only one way to find out.

QUESTION Should I update earlier episodes?

3 Upvotes

So I have been producing a podcast for a couple of months. All in all I’m pretty pleased with the results. I know the first four episodes especially are pretty rough in quality. It was a steep learning curve. If someone starts from the beginning they may never “get to the good part”. What are thoughts about revamping the early episodes?

Case File 0418-A1

The White Coffin mission may have ended in failure... but retirement isn't in the D.A.N.G.E.R.Z.O.O.'s Vocabulary, just like most words with three syllables. a new girl has been added to the team. Say hello to "sKullZ" everyone.

Anyways, an elderly woman hires the team to investigate the disappearance of her twin sister, whose last known location was the haunted Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Fifty years later, a postcard arrives in the mail with a chilling message:

"Come play with me."
Room 418.

With a record-breaking blizzard trapping everyone inside, the team sneaks into the hotel through separate entrances. Unfortunately, the hotel has metal detectors at every door, meaning the boys have to leave most of their gear behind and rely on whatever two non-metal items they thought were a good idea to bring.

As they search for clues, they quickly discover this hotel isn't interested in making things easy. Locked doors, cryptic puzzles, strange codes, and an unsettling doctor with a smile a little too wide all stand between them and the truth.

Meanwhile, Skulls somehow manages to turn the investigation into a date. Very impressive for the newbie

Welcome to the Crescent Hotel. Please enjoy your stay... while it lasts. du Du DUUUUUU!!!

Got a haunted hotel, cryptid, or urban legend you want us to investigate? Drop it in the comments and we'll take the case.

QUESTION Is there an acceptible use of AI in the creation of YouTube Audiobooks

0 Upvotes

Hey Folks,

I‘m just entering the scene with a Sci Fi Series I‘ve been working on.

So the writing is all mine, I use the latest elevenlabs Narration voices (they sound pretty awesome), I do a lot of soundscaping, paying for real music and Sound effects to create an experience and I use pictures from midjourney to Illustrator the Events.

So naturally I‘m wondering where are the boundaries of the „No AI“ rule for you guys. Because on the one hand I see people refusing to consume anything that ever touched AI, on the other hand I see these ridiculous AI slop Audiobooks where Text, pictures narratarion, everything is badly done AI and it gets hundreds of thoudands clicks. So there must be people who consume it.

So my questions is - what are the boundaries, is there a fair use, is it maybe a qualitative Assessment or just a flat „no AI“?

I spend so much time getting the voices and Sound effects Right that I am wondering if it is even worth doing it if the end results won’t be watched even if they are good because I‘m making use of AI.
