Date for the diary!
On Nov 26th (a Wednesday), we will be live streaming a listening party of the very first MOCKERY MANOR episode.
We'll be doing a director's commentary-style deep dive into the making of the episode, behind-the-scenes nuggets and the early days of Mockery, followed by Q&A time.

We’ve just heard the very sad news that Peter Sowerbutts (Manager Norton in Mockery Manor S1) has died.

Peter was a wonderful character, a brilliant actor and an institution of our local theatre scene. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

If you’re a fan of the @longcatmedia.bsky.social podcastiverse: Madam Magenta, Mockery Manor, Ballad of Ann & Mary, or frankly any small artists’ productions, @laurenceowen.bsky.social and Lindsay are asking us to ditch Spotify and move to a different platform. Spotify is a truly terrible company!

We go live once again! Magenta & Bernard's weekly livestream is happening tonight at 8pm UK time (3pm ET). The YouTube link is in the comments, and if we can figure out the tech whatnots, we should be streaming direct to Facebook and Instagram as well.

From Laurence @laurenceowen.bsky.social LongCat:

I’ve decided to pull all my music from the streaming services! They’re very hostile to artists and we certainly don’t make any money from them. From now on, all my (and Long Cat Media’s) music can be found on our Bandcamp page.

So let's talk about why this sucks. I am so angry and so disappointed, but I also know that a lot of people might not understand why I and my queer friends are feeling this way. Read on for an explanation 🧵(1/14)

Important questions here 👀
OK I'm gunna sound like a raving lunatic @longcatmedia.bsky.social but Bernard in the livestreams mentions that mockery manor is a podcast but with magenta and co turning up in mockery and Bernard's bands song plays in mockery does that mean mockery is a true crime podcast in Bernard's universe

US Shipping Update!

Royal Mail (our UK postal service) has figured out what it’s doing with regards to US tariffs, so we are now able to resume shipping all our merch items to the US. Hooray!

Enormous pain in the arse. But here's a little update for the time being.
Text reads:
United States Shipping Paused (except for The Game)
We're sorry to say that we've had to pause shipping of certain parcels to the US due to tariff uncertainty. (1/2)

More feedback from players of Mockery Manor: The Murder Mystery Game!

"Loved the element of being able to reference people from the series and having new characters to interact with, being fully immersed in the Mockery universe with all the artwork and clues...
