October is always my favorite month as far as audio dramas are concerned. This is the time of the year I get to find the spookiest tales out there to send chills down your spine.

Chronosphere Fiction is a story telling anthology podcast where writers’ creations come to life with sound effects and music.

Your Saturday Podcast: The Zany “The Coach”
Hello there, you faithful, loyal, intrepid, adventure-seeking audiophiles. It’s Jack, Fictional Cafe’s hosta witha mosta, pinch-hitting for Ruby who is on vacation (sure hope she comes back!). Here are the first episodes of “The Coach,” about the journey (sic) of Evan Nixon, a former performer turned Life-Coach. Aided by his husband, Kevin, his best friend, Minxy, and his mentor, Miss Erica (of Miss Erica’s Life-Coaching Institute and Cross-Dressing Academy), Evan navigates a host of zany clients, all while “life-coaching” his own journey. It’s hysterically funny and you’d better agree or we won’t play any more episodes for you.
“Journeys in the Dark” created by Robert Best
Journeys In The Dark a post-apocalyptic dark comedy. Created by Robert Best, directed by David Barr, and produced by David Barr and Alan O’Brien. Journeys in the Dark is a mix between Of Mice and Men’s Odd Couple and the post-apocalyptic dark humour of Red Dwarf. This audio drama follows the adventures of our two mismatched heroes Hod and Baulder.

It wasn’t always smooth sailing. Recorded in 2016 but left on the cutting room floor. Years of delays, international moves, and more than one child almost left this gem buried in the dust. But in late 2023, the winds shifted, and production…
