Work and working on Forged Bonds has kept me busy so I haven't had as much podcast listening time but I'm hoping to get back in the swing of listening and Audio Drama Sunday posting again soon!!

If you're looking for more from me to fill the void, then you're in luck as @forgedbondspod.bsky.social starts on the 18th!! If you wanna get access to that even sooner, it will be going like for crowdfunder backers and patrons over at patreon.com/pinetreepods on the 14th!

And finally (for this post at least) we have @camlannpod.bsky.social which is the most hopeful post apocalypse show I've ever encountered. It has Arthurian legends, folklore, mythology, beautiful music, brilliant performances, excellent writing, and @paulwarren.bsky.social, what more could you want?

(Also they're crowdfunding for season 3 on ko-fi and you wanna back it soooo bad ko-fi.com/hinaypod/goa...)

@hinaypod.bsky.social also falls into cozy horror for me but more along the lines of "Motzie Dapul has a very soothing and cozy voice and OPE NOPE THERES THE HORRORS!" Im very early on still but the weaving of magic and folklore and Filipino culture is fantastic

The @nightpostpod.bsky.social has cozy horror vibes and also respect the post office which is something we should all do more. The magic in this world is so intriguing and the characters are so engaging and all of the work in it is wonderful I cannot recommend it more

@audistoriumpod.bsky.social is an anthology which runs all over the genre-sphere and has some of the best writing and sound design I've ever heard. It's got an episode for every kind of listener and @givemeyourlemon.bsky.social does excellent voice work in it!

@allatseapod.bsky.social is horror-ish microfiction about being stranded- you guessed it- at sea. @tipplersbane.bsky.social's voice acting and writing are both phenomenal and i am desperate to find out how Feb got themself into this mess they're in

@doyoucopypod.bsky.social is another show about grief (why do I love so many shows about grief?) with horror and fantasy elements and it squeezes my heart in my chest. @delaylays.bsky.social has created one of my favorite series of all time with this show and I know s3 will destroy me

@thekilda.bsky.social is part of the reason that the Fringes happened at all. Seeing this dark fantasy cult stuff podcast from the ground up inspired me to finish writing this show and I'm eternally grateful. It also introduced me to @michellicopter.bsky.social's work and then she became Alexandria!

It also wouldn't be me without mentioning the Technomancy Project which is another genre mashup in the best of ways it's got horror it's got sci fi it's got magic it's made me cry it's great!

Would this really be a recommendation list from me if I didn't mention @ethicstownpod.bsky.social? Imagine if moral quandries carried real world weight and then turn that guilt up to 11 and you have Ethics Town. I adore this show and everything that it has become and I cannot WAIT for S3

@tellnotalespod.bsky.social has ghosts! And grief! And convoluted science about ghosts and grief! It is the kindest show about ghosts you will ever encounter and has made me cry so much. @leanneegan.bsky.social poured his whole heart into this show and it shows in every facet of it
