After my podcast update post three more really awesome podcasts came up on my radar. I’ve only listened to four episodes of each, but I love them already.

↳ The Ghost Radio Project follows a group of ‘ghosts’, people bringing music and news to those who can find the frequency and live in the outlands, areas removed from the governed cities which seem to be in constant social and political upheaval. The creator is a really genuine person, and it’s an amazing project. It makes me think queer Fallout (but…queerer) and is a great piece in its own right. Ziggy is a gem, the music is sweet, and the outlands are hardcore. Definitely worth a listen.

↳ The Magical History of Knox County came up on my dash, but I didn’t really check it out until my SO brought my attention to it (we realised she’s basically Ned). A radio show where the host, Mordecai, learns about the area along with the listener, after the disappearance of the former host, Abigail. And Mordecai is committed, recording and describing events live even while trapped in a cavern with what we originally thought was a manticore. It was not. We’ve both really been enjoying this one.



↳ Point Mystic catches you out. It sounds like a documentary. It should be, and all the eerie aspects make it that much worse when you struggle to discern the fact from fiction. The kids in this town build structures from trees in the woods nearby, and that’d be fine but there’s this thing with rabbits and gates and they’re defending the town from something big, bad and scary? That’s from the four part story anyway, there are other stories. Really, really jarring but an incredible listen.
