Hey all!
It occurred to me that I never actually put this launchcast on the feed. Since the next episode has been delayed due to production difficulties, this seemed to be the ideal time to put it up as an extra bit of content. Listen as Philippa Ballantine, J. Daniel Sawyer and I take calls from listeners and kick off the next stage of our podcasting projects. Enjoy!

Three award-winning and award-nominated podcasters are teaming up to bring you their new novels on the same day. Philippa Ballantine revisits the world of the Fey in Digital Magic, Chris Lester returns to the world of Metamor City, and J. Daniel Sawyer brings back the dark conspirators and gamblers of The Antitithesis Progression with Free Will, the sequel to Predestination. On November 11th, three new, fully-produced dramatically presented audio adventures hit the podosphere – and tonight Podioracket brings these three insane characters together to attempt, probably in vain, to find a method buried beneath their many layers of madness.

The lovely and talented Sara Lloyd (voice of Danni Sharabi) was here at Metamor Studios when word reached us that MAKING THE CUT had won the 2009 Parsec Award for Best Speculative Fiction Audio Drama (Long Form). Given the great news, we just had to hop on the mics together and talk about the show and Sara’s experiences with it.
WARNING: We recorded this after midnight. Much giggling ensues.
Huge thanks to Paulette Jaxton for editing this for us!
MCP SU04 - Parsec Retrospective with Sara Lloyd [00:57:06m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (4052)Posted by Raven on 13 Sep 2009 | Tagged as: David, Janus, Just For Fun, Kate, Ms Fallon, fantasy
On Memorial Day Weekend 2009, it was my privilege to present an all-new Metamor City audio drama to a live audience at Balticon 43. With a full cast, music and sound effects, and a script explicitly written for audio play, this was one of the most ambitious things I’ve done to date — and one of the most fun. Listen as Janus Starson interrogates Ms Fallon about her apparent murder of a celestial child … and Kathryn Kitaen tries to decide whether to defend her friend’s actions.
The Cast:
Janus Starson – Chris Lester
Isri Fallon – Kim Fortuner
Kathryn Kitaen – Heather Welliver
David Silverleaf – Chooch Schubert
Breialyn – Sara Lloyd
Hotel Manager #1 – Marc “Grailwolf” Bailey
Hotel Manager #2 – Steve Eley
Hotel Manager #3 – Viv Schubert
and featuring Rob the Sound Engineer as Himself
The audio has been balanced, within the limits of the recording equipment, but it otherwise has not been edited; you’ll hear it as it happened, right down to the snarky comments from the audience.
A question-and-answer period follows the drama, though sadly some of the information contained therein is now out-of-date.

In today’s installment, Dan, Chris, Kitty & Miss Kalendar set out to offend absolutely everyone.
Okay, so we really didn’t do it on purpose. It just happened that way. Be forewarned that this one is NOT for the thin-skinned. It is, however, hilarious.

Hey Metamorphs!
You thought I’d forgotten about this one, didn’t you? The long awaited (long, LONG awaited) sixth feedback show is finally here — or part 1 is, anyway. I had to break it into half-hour chunks because Audacity started buckling under the sheer combined awesomeness of J. Daniel Sawyer, Kitty Nic’Iaian, Miss Kalendar and me in one room together. I’ll put out the next part as soon as I can put it back together from the original recordings and get it re-edited.
