Ok, once again a reminder to audio fiction people:
An 'indie' show is a show that is made without a big studio or corporation backing it. Yes this includes The Magnus Archives and Old Gods of Appalachia. Being successful does not stop a show being independent.

“Illinois is considered one of the sole havens for displaced trans people in the Midwest. Illinois law also prohibits healthcare providers from discriminating based on gender identity and requires state-regulated insurance plans to cover hormone therapy.”
As Trump Bans Care, Trans People Flee to Shield States
Trans people across the country, from teens to retirees, are eyeing moves to Illinois in the wake of anti-trans executive orders and legislation that puts their access to life-saving care at risk.

I bothered claire to do a podcast for like a year and a half. And then, she had an idea in a tweet. And here is it with @multitude.productions
Eight weeks ago, I jokingly imagined a podcast where scholars could (expertly) hate on historical figures. Almost 100,000 people thought it was a good idea.
I am so incredibly excited to announce that the first episodes of my brand new show This Guy Sucked will be released March 20th!
