The Big Loop

Genre:

Bio: An anthology series by Paul Bae. As the co-creator and co-producer of the massively popular podcast series, The Black Tapes, Paul wanted his next series to focus on more intimate stories while pushing the limits of the audio drama form. The Big Loop spans the genres of horror, science fiction, and dark comedy with self-contained, character-driven stories. Replete with mind-bending plot twists and unpredictable reveals, the series tagline, “Stories of finite beings in an infinite universe,” serves to bring the focus on characters confronted with the familiar and fantastic exigencies of human experience.

Inspired by the documentary-style single-person narratives of Love + Radio and This American Life, our host (played by Paul Bae) is our near-invisible guide into and out of these stories of loneliness, depression, family, identity, and death. And, yes, sometimes, joy.
