Greetings, and welcome to The End Last Week, This Week, and Next Week, the podcast companion to The End, the weekly newsletter that shines a light back on audio fiction shows after they've reached the finale of a season or the conclusion of the series. I am your host and the curator of The End, Evo Terra.

Let’s get into it, shall we?

Last Week

The most recent issue of The End—the 53rd—highlighted 5 shows in the Season Finales & Finished Series section, and 3 of them wrapped in the last few days.

  • 🚀 🥜 ⚙️ • Omega Star 7, a dramatized comedy scifi series from Team Omega Star, posted the finale of their 4th season on Sept 5th. You’ll need about 28 hours to listen to the 57 episodes of these 4 seasons. Season 5 is to start in January.
  • 🔪👹🥃 • Scott Sigler Slices: SLAY, a narrated scifi horror series from Empty Set Entertainment & Realm, posted the season 1 finale on Sept 2nd. There are 35 episodes for about 17 and half hour of horror goodness. Season 2 is slated for April of next year.
  • 🖤🦇🌹 • After the Gloaming, a dramatized gothic horror series from Dissonance Media & The Other Stories, posted the season 1 finale also on Sept 2nd. Five and a half hours is what you need to listen to the 9 episodes of the season, with Season 2 slated for the first of the year.
  • Listen to the end of this audio file to hear trailers or episode snippets from these recently finale’d shows.

This Week

With every issue, I make two recommendations for great audio fiction I personally love. As with all things in life, YMMV.

  • 🦹🎱⚡ • My first recommendation is for The Bright Sessions, a dramatized metahuman series from Lauren Shippen & Atypical Artists. There are a few shows that can claim to have shaped modern audio fiction, and this is one of them. Excellent writing, heartfelt acting, and a just-right soundscape make for a near-perfect combination. Here’s the trailer: [trailer plays] The Bright Sessions is fully complete, spanning 7 seasons with 115 episodes for about 47h of entertainment.
  • 🐕♻️👁️ • My second recommendation is for The Dog Is Dead, a narrated multigenre anthology from podcastgod. I first consumed this show during a road trip a couple of year ago, and it kept my attention from the dreary desert. Each episode has a totally different feel, but—if you're paying attention—you'll notice the threads. Here’s the trailer: [trailer plays] The Dog is Dead is a complete series with a single season. You’ll need about 4 hours to listen to the 15 episodes.

Next Week

The latest issue of The End has 10 entries in the New Seasons Coming Soon section—10? Wowzers I guess I should get used to this—but none of them begin releasing episodes of their next seasons in just a few days. So I’ll take a moment for two updates:

The first is that a brand new website and newsletter are coming. I’m moderately confident it won’t happen in time for next week’s issue or episode, but the following week looks much better. I’ll let you know when it’s released.

The final has to do with the realities of cost associated with that upgrade. Yes, I’m once again asking you—if you can—to consider supporting The End with a teeny-tiny contribution. Details at TheEnd.fyi/support.

  • Trailers or snippets for are coming right after I say...

And that’s all for this episode of The End Last Week, This Week, and Next Week. For these and the other audio fiction shows featured, highlighted, and coming soon that were included in the 53th issue of The End, including links to listen to the shows mentioned in this episode, please visit
