In my headphones

There are multiple ways to listen at RadioDork.com Somehow I missed this one last year. Maybe this is the first year he’s been listed in Shoutcast. Last year was lazy – I didn’t do in-depth research, mainly stuck to searching Shoutcast, Live365, etc..  This station is the project of one man – namely Clay Roe.  He…

Read More Dead Air 98.3 FM

It’s taken me a couple months to listen to this entire saga. 53 episodes, if I counted correctly. I didn’t listen to any of the Postmortems or the spoken text Five Fingers of Glory stories, nor did I read any of the published materials. Perhaps I do the entire creation a disservice, but I’m an…

Read More Wormwood | 2007-2010 | Habit Forming Films, David Accampo & Jeremy Rogers

I have listened to 20 episodes of this – then again with my wife – and haven’t jotted down a single note about it. But I can’t. stop. listening. It’s great. It’s endless fun. No serious story here – just lots and lots of fun. I won’t even say it’s hilarious, though it is certainly…

Read More King Falls AM | 2015, Ongoing | Make Believe Picture Company

I previously listened to seasons one and two and summarized my opinion of them as follows… I give it a solid C. It does most everything right that it set out to do but I just didn’t care for it. This third season is very different from the first two. First of all, the episodes…

Read More Transmissions from Colony One – Season 3 | 2015 | John W. Richter

Six fortyish-minute episodes. The acting is mostly subpar. The dialogue recording is nothing special. And the characters come across as two dimensional – at least to me. The many and various rip offs from the films are egregious. Like someone rewriting their favorite moments, quotes, character elements, etc.. And I was repeatedly annoyed by how…

Read More Star Wars – In the Shadows | 2010 | Dany Pépin, Creative Audioscape Productions

I finally got around to listening this. I decided that Halloween month was a good excuse to do so. Especially since it’s coming to an end. This is an audio comic book. That’s the short version. It kinda breaks my heart to post the rest of my thoughts. I know Eric Busby is a respected…

Read More The Byron Chronicles | 2005 to 2015 | Eric Busby

Note – I’ve been trying to have people’s names in the title but try Googling this production and you’ll find all kinds of somewhat conflicting information about who exactly was behind it. Adapted by John Reeves? Or is his name John Reed? Karl or Carl Schmidt directed. But all sources I read agreed that it…

Read More A Canticle for Leibowitz | 1981 | WHA Radio/Wisconsin Public Radio

These are so well made. The recording techniques, overall sound design, acting, etc. are great and natural. And the writing is really good. But, it didn’t really hold me spellbound or anything. I enjoyed it, but once was enough. I’m giving it a B- and not keeping a copy on hand for future listens. And…
