Don't get me wrong, I love October but there is something so beautiful about November in North America. The world around me transitions into another beautiful version of itself, shedding it's skin in it's annual dance towards death and subsequent rebirth. Quote by L. M. Montgomery

This audiocard goes HARD. Holy shiiiiiiiiit. Count me in.

Caine chases after Su-jin, flying back down the road that leads to one place: Metropolis West. It’s time to come home — and time to leave another one behind.

S3E1 out on Friday! Listen wherever you get your podcasts!

Want to know what that homecoming feels like for Caine and others? You can pledge $5 and up to hear the episode TODAY on our Patreon!

DOOOOO IT! If you need help, resources, VO/VA, whatever feel free to reach out. The creator community is lovely and super supportive.

I want to create an audio drama so badly. It would be a dream come true. Either create one or at least help in creating one in some way. It's honestly hilarious how often the "Audio drama fan to audio drama creator" pipeline occurs. I wish I could join

be careful with what series you watch/read during emotional points in your life because they will forever contain a ghost of your past self within it now

A recommendation to all the audio drama creators out there:

Always listen to your show in the way your audience is listening to your show.

We tend to edit using nice gear. Good over-the-ear headphones. Quiet rooms. But most of your audience will not listen to your show this way. A recent poll indicated that almost 20% of AD listeners listen with a *single* earbud in. Almost 10% listen on their phone speaker. That's a significant part of your audience that is listening in a mono environment or with tiny speakers (or both). You also likely have listeners with hearing loss in one of their ears*, and you want your show to be accessible to them. Before you release your show, make sure to listen to it at least once on a single earbud in a noisy environment. Is your show still legible this way? Can a listener still enjoy it like this, and understand all the plot beats and character moments? If not, it's a good idea to spend some more time on your edit so that they can. (And it's still definitely OK to make your show sound *great* for those who have a great audio setup! Just make sure the show still works for those who don't.) *You likely also have audience members with hearing loss in *both* ears. Transcripts are important. I'm behind in getting them posted for Metropolis, I need to get on that. (Episode 3 of Metropolis is live, BTW. Just waiting for Spotify to pick up the RSS feed before the big announcement. 😅)

me and my homies support real artists who put their passion into their pieces instead of a machine who rips off the hard work of talented peeps

A timely quote.

Dutch was many things, but at the end of the day he was a Dreamer.

RDR2 informs a lot for the show and if you ever want a peak into the creative process of the podcast know that most episodes of DW come with a few hours of riding around in RDR2.

Episode drops tomorrow, catch it everywhere!
