Especially loving the disaffected Mid-Atlantic accent for the demon, especially. Anachronistic and unsettling!

(And always happy to hear my buddy Tyler Moody in something!)

Sometimes someone dislikes you and there's just nothing you can do about it. If you try, they hate you for it. If you stop trying, they hate you for it. People do be like that sometimes.

I still think you're a good person.

I fell a little behind on Two Thousand and Late, but that just means I can binge catch up on Two Thousand and Late! And I'm enjoying it! @atypicalartists.co

Atypical Artists @atypicalartists.co · 9h

@macrogers.bsky.social, writer of Give Me Away and much, much more, is an expert on characters who have two people living inside of them. So his praise of TWO THOUSAND AND LATE means a great deal!

A stylized graphic with a burning megaphone that says: As a longtime aficionado of the Inner Voice subgenre of audio drama, I was delighted to hear that one of the leading artists of our field was taking it on - and Lauren Shippen crushes it as expected. Two Thousand And Late is Malevolent-meets-His-Girl-Friday, a breathless comedy about surviving late-late-late capitalism with a lot of laughs and some serious bite when you least expect it. Mac Rogers, writer of GIVE ME AWAY

The aim of this project is to ensure Filipino artists, who are historically overworked and underpaid (like, $50 a week underpaid) can get paid for their art, which makes up half of this Kickstarter's goal!

The other half is to cover printing and delivery~

Help us hit 20% before the weekend!

The Hi Nay Podcast @hinaypod.bsky.social · 23h

15%! We're just about to clear 15%! Let's keep that momentum going and make this horror comic happen!

Acoustic treatment is just as or more important than your mic hardware. But before you buy expensive supplies, try recording 30-second tests in different rooms of your home (closets!). You might already have a good recording space. Also layered moving blankets + makeshift structures can work well.

If you have a #YouTube channel, they are rolling out an "Automatic Dubbing" feature. I'm concerned about how YouTube might use the voices in my videos to train or proliferate #AI, so I'm turning it off. You may wish to do the same. Here's how:
