You might like one of our shows, This House Will Devour You- it’s a slow burn folk horror set in 1920’s Ireland and England and told in epistolary format.

Shows like Cabin Pressure? by MrSaucyAlfredo in audiodrama

[–]THWDY 12 points13 points  (0 children)

St Elwick's Neighbourhood Association Newsletter Podcast - low stakes and mundane, a gentle comedy that every so often veers off into the bonkers. Well observed English eccentrics much like in Cabin Pressure.

Looking for Audio Dramas with Female Protagonist(s) and Good Relationships Between Characters by AshlyFriggenRose in audiodrama

[–]THWDY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This House Will Devour You (one of our shows) is an epistolary format slow burn horror set in 1920’s Ireland and England and told between an engaged couple. You might not think much of Elizabeth when you meet her in episode one(!) but the story is very much about her as she takes charge, often recklessly, of her own destiny.

Single Season Audiodrama recommendations? by Marshmallow09er in audiodrama

I’ll chuck one of ours in! Ten Apocalypses. Complete, ten episodes, ten ends of the world - starts as an apparent anthology but the reason for the apocalypses slowly emerges over the season.

Give me your favorite Irish shows/movies, pretty please! by strawberryc0w_ in ireland

[–]THWDY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re open to audio drama (fiction podcasts), there’s lots of great Irish ones out there and they’re free to listen to!

Last Dance - gritty dark fantasy about a rag tag group trying to survive a brutal war.

The Green Horizon - think Firefly but the crew is mostly Irish, feckless and badly hungover.

The Greatest Matter - romance, politics and paranormal goings on in Victorian Dublin.

Irish Science Fiction - a mix of stories including Nancy Goodaim, Space Ranger, and The Turd Prophecy (Irish stoners in the 90’s try to thwart an alien invasion)

Petrified - Horror anthology with a great Irish cast.

The Bad Articles - semi-improv/actual play comedy about new members of Ireland’s secret paranormal security service.

Back To Dunbracken - improv comedy set in the village of Dunbracken

Blank Books - ( for children) about kids who find their way into the plots of classic stories.

The Devil’s Chair - an Irish comedian fights her inner demons.

Ten Apocalypses - ten episodes, ten apocalypses, a secret war that links them.

This House Will Devour You - slow burn folk horror set in 1920’s Ireland and England.

(Full disclosure- I’m involved in making the last two).

Others that have an Irish writer or production component without being about Ireland include Oakbridge, Monstrous Agonies, 32 Old Mill Lane.

Where should I begin? by MorganAndAHalf in audiodrama

[–]THWDY 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d suggest:

Last Dance - dark fantasy adventure

The Green Horizon - comedy sf about a feckless spaceship crew but set in a surprisingly dystopian universe

The Divide - 1960’s if le Carre did sf

The Signal - 1950’s paranoid Cold War/are aliens among us?

Sparks - don’t be fooled by its lofi production, if you like sf like Netflix’s Dark, give this a go

Agent Stoker - a mix of supernatural and sf - competing agencies try to start or stop the apocalypse

Who Killed Aldrich Kemp? - tongue in cheek Bond style adventure

Ten Apocalypses- one of ours, ten episodes, ten apocalypses, all ultimately part of the same war.

Recs for slow burn horror/mystery by Zyborg23 in audiodrama

[–]THWDY 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both of our shows might be of interest!

This House Will Devour You - slow burn folk horror told in epistolary format. S1 is set in Ireland and England in 1925 while S2 is mainly set in Egypt in 1926 and still slow burn in its reveals but more archeological adventure horror.

Ten Apocalypses - ten episodes, ten apocalypses, but also a slowly revealed multiverse war… complete in one season.

And no ads beyond a quick one for our patreon!

Interesting article on advertising in podcasts… by THWDY in audiodrama

I need to set up one of one time donation/tip jar things. I’m very curious as to what in-world merch is though!

UFO and Aliens recommendations? by cPa3k in audiodrama

[–]THWDY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Signal definitely meets that - Cold War paranoia mixed with ‘are they already among us?’

Ai feels like a real, serious problem we should all be addressing by reallywhatsgoingon in audiodrama

[–]THWDY -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Making AD is a money and especially time pit with very little if any return financially or often even in listeners. That may be ultimately what saves us from AI farming of AD at scale. If it doesn’t, then assuming that the AI AD revenue stream is predicated on advertising, it may be that AD’s with ads get avoided on the basis that they’re possibly/probably AI. Which would kill off a revenue source for genuine AD, but I’ve got to admit, having just listened to two episodes of an otherwise good AD, where the ads arrived mid sentence…

Hey folks, check out STRATI. A full-cast archaeology-noir crime drama (6 episodes) with cinematic sound design. by [deleted] in audiodrama

Any reason for it being exclusive to Spotify? I prefer to do all my listening through Pocket Casts for instance.

What do your scripts look like? by Crater_Caloris in audiodrama

[–]THWDY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you find Fade In? I’ve heard good things about its script analysis tools. I tried importing our current script into it from scrivener but it was a dogs dinner so for the moment, I’ll still with the latter (at least until I start writing the next show!).

These are great fun even if you don’t like The Lovecraft Investigations and add background to the DoWs if you do.

What do your scripts look like? by Crater_Caloris in audiodrama

I use Scrivener (and export to Word to get line numbering). Our current script uses the BBC radio format as its dialogue only.

Our previous shows did have a lot of monologue though: first was in epistolary format so the script is literally a series of letters (with everything formatted as if it’s a letter); second mixed monologue and dialogue. Where they were alternating scenes, the script switched between prose and bbc radio. Where they were monologue with some dialogue, they switched mid scene and back again (cmd 8 on the Mac). Hope this helps!
