In our new show, he'll be playing Julian McCandless.

Professor McCandless is the world's foremost expert on the history of long-disappeared Harbinger empire.

He knows more than anyone on the subject, especially more than his students Adam and Amy.

But all of that changes one day.

We might be a little biased but we think that TWO THOUSAND AND LATE sounds amazing as HELL! And that's all due to @euripidesredux.bsky.social, our incredible sound designer. They've brought both Havoc and Harper's world to rich, three dimensional life. pod.link/1835711536

the end of this episode is probably one of my favorite bits of @euripidesredux.bsky.social sound design so far - it's the perfect combo of terrifying, gross, and funny and literally startled a laugh out of me the first time I heard it.

If you think I don't dance around at my standing desk, headbanging and air-guitaring, every time the Two Thousand and Late theme plays while I'm listening back to a draft, you've never been more wrong.

I loved talking to @laurenpassell.bsky.social about TWO THOUSAND AND LATE but this is my favorite bit: my tiny inner alligator demon and getting to brag about Jeffrey's top tier sound design. podcastthenewsletter.substack.com/p/grandma-ho...
"A screenshot from Podcast the Newsletter, specifically a Q&A with Lauren Shippen, that reads: What made you want to tap into rage when usually you go for a much softer and optimistic tone? (This question is from Wil Williams!) I've felt a lot of rage in my life. It's usually simmering right beneath the surface - a dear friend once described it as a ""tiny little alligator demon sometimes waiting to snap its jaws living patiently inside the body of a softhearted guitar playing bread baking stucky shipper"". It is something that really only close friends see, because most of the time I do try to be soft and optimistic! I always try to see the best in people and in the world, but I don't always win that fight. This show is very much a release of a lot of rage l've felt throughout my life - after years of learning how to manage it and express it productively, it felt like it was an emotion I could finally express in my public art.
Can you think of any adjectives you'd use to describe the SOUND because it's amazing.
It IS amazing - Jeffrey Nils Gardner has done a spectacular job. To me, it's like the best kind of magazine collage; the kind of thing I would make when I was a teenager, cutting out photos and headlines and vibes from my music magazines and pasting them into a hodge-podge expression of angst."

Unfortunately, the world of TWO THOUSAND AND LATE is very much inspired by our real world.

Fortunately, the world of TWO THOUSAND AND LATE has Havoc.

the day after the 2024 election, I was harassed on the street for the first time in years. nothing about it was remarkable. I've been harassed more times than I can count, but the pandemic, moving, and, I guess, just straight up not going out very much, I guess I'd sort of forgotten what it was like

"Will getting angry pay your bills? Is the world a place good enough to be optimistic for?"

in two sentences, @laurenpassell.bsky.social summed up TWO THOUSAND AND LATE better than I ever have

We LOVE @laurenpassell.bsky.social for her unfailing support of audio drama and we're honored by this incredibly lovely write-up in her weekly newsletter! Be sure to subscribe to always stay up to date with the best new pods 😈 podcastthenewsletter.substack.com/p/grandma-ho...
a screenshot from Podcast the Newsletter, written by Lauren Passell, that reads: Lauren Shippen released the first two episodes of her new show TWO THOUSAND AND LATE, a scripted fiction show about a woman who, on her 36th birthday, gets possessed by a demon who was supposed to visit her on her 16th birthday. A possession story is not an easy one to tell with audio only and the way Lauren does it here is masterful. The demon's personality alone is kind of a twist, let's say she's a bit more sophisticated and funny than the demons you're used to hearing. What you hear, from the sound design to the acting to the dialogue, is impeccable, flowing and crystal clear it's visual. It will really ruin other things for you. It's also hysterical, I was writing down my favorite funny lines for some reason. What am I going to do with them? (I guess I'll put them here: "I think we should kill Jared;" "no prison could hold us.") The way Lauren was able to make me identify with the main character is hard to put into words—| felt like I was in her body and while her life details are oddly specific they felt like my own. Maybe that's because this is a story about rage, something so many of us are feeling right now. But another twist is that it's also a story about hope. Will getting angry pay your bills? Is the world a place good enough to be optimistic for? Listen to TWO THOUSAND AND LATE here.
