In the mountains of central Appalachia, blood runs as deep as these hollers and just as dark. Since before our kind knew these hills, hearts of unknowable hunger and madness have slumbered beneath them. These are the darkest mountains in the world. How dare we think we can break the skin of a god and dig out its heart without bringing forth blood and darkness? Old Gods of Appalachia is a horror-anthology podcast set in the shadows of an Alternate Appalachia, a place where digging too deep into the mines was just the first mistake.

The as-yet un-awarded episodic comedy audiodrama, The Peculiar Adventures of Abraham Faulkner, surrounds the unexpected comings and goings of a highly unorthodox consulting detective as he attempts to negotiate the complexities that his occupation necessitates - if you can rightly call it an occupation, which I am reliably informed you cannot.
Please join us for monthly half hour adventures wherein which quite possibly the most aberrant consulting detective this side of Brunswick attempts to solve any number of baffling occurrences in the most unconventional manner.
Rated C for Chucklesome.
Semi-late night community radio broadcasts from a strange little town in the Crowsnest Pass, Alberta (aka, not just the middle of nowhere, but nowhere itself). Nothing ever happens here. Certainly nothing weird. Why would you even suggest that? Listen close. Don't wander off. It's a long way to get where you're going. Especially out here.

The popular podcast, Mercury’s Wake – Before Chaos is a character-driven story based on the first book from the author's sci-fi novel, Mercury's Wake – The Long Weekend, delivering a reality-bending four-day journey into backstories, premonitions, murder, high stakes gambling, parallel universes, an alien prophesy, interdimensional travel, metaphor, and ordinary people compelled by the reflections of a fictitious character in a book found in an abandoned Cadillac just up from Chaco Canyon, New Mexico.
Nothing like a long weekend just before an apocalypse...
In four days, change emerges on the world horizon as unseen forces challenge Earth, and the paths of eight strangers merge onto a supernatural freeway headed toward a diabolical event at the Pompeii Amphitheater, Las Vegas, Nevada, just your usual four-day weekend in Las Vegas.
“It’s strange to sit here with a glass of wine, watching a storm of locusts mindlessly smear their guts on the living room window. It’s gruesome and mesmerizing. Funny how life goes on despite horrifying signs.”
