From the writer of The Message, Life/After, and Steal the Stars. They call the crashed spaceship “The Ghosthouse†because it screams—the screams of thousands of extraterrestrial political prisoners trapped in its horrific mainframe. The only way to free them... is to transfer them into humans willing to share their minds with a second consciousness forever. Who would volunteer for that?
The Give Me Away podcast is a tremendous new work of cinematic Audio Fiction from Gideon Media. Written by Mac Rogers, who has proven his ability to explore complex science fiction concepts in previous works such as Steal the Stars and LifeAfter, this show once again showcases his talent for creating accessible and well-written characters. From the very beginning, listeners are fully invested in the story, thanks to the captivating pacing and immersive storytelling. The quality of this Audio Drama is outstanding and can easily be compared with the best podcasts being made today.
One of the best aspects of The Give Me Away podcast is its ability to delve into intricate relationships. The show drops listeners right into the action without much explanation, displaying Rogers' mastery over the medium. The dialogue is cleverly crafted, turning inner monologues into dialogues that engage audiences in uncomfortable yet thought-provoking conversations. It plays with the forced intimacy of podcasts while exploring various themes like human connections, government influence, military involvement, and environmental concerns. The narrative constantly evolves and introduces negotiations for new kinds of partnerships and pluralities, ensuring that every character holds equal importance in driving forward both dramatic tension and meaningful content. The show exemplifies Sci-Fi Audio Drama at its finest – solving problems through compelling storytelling.
While The Give Me Away podcast excels in many areas, some may find certain elements less appealing. For instance, there are moments where worn-out marriages and crass heteronormative dating scenes dominate the narrative before transitioning into more progressive relationship dynamics. However, these initial aspects serve a purpose in building tension and highlighting personal growth within characters. Additionally, discussions about bodily functions may come across as explicit or discomforting to some listeners but ultimately contribute to a deeper exploration of humanity's vulnerabilities.
In conclusion, The Give Me Away podcast is an exceptional piece of audio fiction that surpasses expectations. Its well-paced progression captivates audiences from start to finish, leaving them eagerly awaiting each new episode. The performances and production values are of the highest quality, adding to the show's immersive experience. Mac Rogers has a knack for creating stories that go beyond their surface concepts and delve into profound existential questions about morality, happiness, love, and self-discovery. This podcast is a must-listen for any sci-fi enthusiast or anyone looking for a compelling narrative with thought-provoking themes.

When Gloria took a waitressing job in a diner outside of Phoenix, she didn't realize she was now an employee of Midnight Burger, a time-traveling, dimension-spanning diner. Every day Midnight Burger appears somewhere new in the cosmos along with its staff: a galactic drifter, a rogue theoretical physicist, a sentient old-timey radio, and some guy named Caspar. No one knows who built Midnight Burger or how it works, but when it appears there's always someone around who could really use a cup of coffee. Midnight Burger began in the deep, dark time of the pandemic when we were all bored out of our minds and also terrified of everything. Joe Fisher, a screenwriter and playwright, turned to his partner Finlay Stevenson, an audiobook narrator and director, and said "Let's make something." After a few calls to old friends they had a cast, and the adventure began. Now in Season 3, Midnight Burger has over three million downloads, passionate subscribers, and critical acclaim. All of it born out of two people in an uncertain time, trying to imagine a different world. “A must-listen indie podcast” - The Guardian “A beautiful, kind, wonderful story.” - Ella Watts, BBC Radio Season 3 finale out now! https://www.weopenatsix.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

In a near and uncertain future, veteran Sergeant Emmett Lee wanders the countryside in search of replacements for his obsolete military-issue implants. Despite his failing battery and corrupted memory files, our reticent hero teams up with defiant farmer Rebecca Clark against the agritech giant Chem-O-Grow and its brutish genetically-modified enforcer Arlin Frey. Broken Road is a story of ingenuity in the face of corporate greed, what it means to be human and the need for connection, and the strength of community in the face of insurmountable forces.

This week, we want to prepare you for a crossover event that we're VERY excited about! In case you don't know the show, we want to introduce you to "Forgive Me" - also here on the Fable and Folly Network. Here's a little synopsis of the show - Father Ben left his congregation in Binghamton, New York, in the cover of night for the smaller, quieter pastures of St. Patrick's. As our new, young, and at times progressive priest begins to acquiesce to his new surroundings, he finds himself butting heads with the eccentric parishioners who come to him seeking solace and advice. Whether he's trying to understand Old Margaret's “usual” confession; parsing out how Tom can better help care for his wife's pet pig, David; or getting to the bottom of the Christmas Eve Mass Incident, Forgive Me! explores the intertwined lives in Ben's new community and the funny, sad, and sometimes painful experiences that come out of confession and the Catholic experience. Forgive Me! began as a simple idea from series cocreator Jack Marone: to mine the sometimes funny, sometimes awkward, and often confusing anecdotes from his Catholic school upbringing and craft the kind of podcast that could make him laugh and that his still-practicing family members could be proud of. After pitching the idea to Windfall cocreator Bob Raymonda in 2015, the series sat on the back burner until 2018, when Rogue Dialogue's first show was in postproduction and the team was hungry for new ideas that featured fewer characters but just as much heart.

They call the spaceship that crashed in the Nevada desert “The Ghosthouse” because it screams—the screams of thousands of extraterrestrial political prisoners uploaded into its horrific mainframe. The only way to free them... is to transfer them into the bodies of humans willing to share their minds with an alien second consciousness. But who would volunteer for that? Graham Shapiro, divorced and adrift at age 50, is one of the first to raise his hand. Give Me Away follows Graham's journey into a world of radical hospitality, one which will touch everything—and everyone—in his life. Written by Mac Rogers and directed by Jordana Williams.
