100th Podcast Episode!

We made it! 100 episodes of ARTC's Podcast. Y'know, we really need a catchier name for this thing. If you have an idea for a great new name, send it on to podcast@artc.org.

But we digress.

For the 100th episode, we knew we had to bring out all the stops, come up with something so spectacular that it would blow everyone away and leave everyone talking about how we could possibly top it. Unfortunately, we didn't get permission to use it, so we went for the next best thing (and set ourselves up for an awesome episode 200) and went with our Dragon*Con 2000 performance of Rory Rammer, Space Marshal: Queen of the Spaceways.

Not only is Rory Rammer one of our most popular and requested series, but in this episode the role of Rory Rammer is played by none other than Ted Raimi! Joining him in this star-studded cast are Alexandra Tydings and Claire Stansfield!

If you're enjoying the podcast, be sure to tell your friends. And tell us, too. We're your friends, right? So tell us you like it so we'll want to keep doing it!

91 - The Call of Cthulhu by H. P. Lovecraft (part 2 of 2)

[Time: 19:11] [Size: 23 MB] [Genre: Horror] Recorded Live at a performance at DragonCon 2009, The Atlanta Radio Theatre Company presents "The Call of C'thulhu" written by H.P. Lovecraft, adapted for audio by Ron N. Butler. This is Part 2 of 2.

Folks, by now you all know about all the stuff I usually post here and the links go on for several posts, so I'm not going to repeat them again this month.  I just want to thank everybody for another (almost) year of great podcasting and appreciation of audio drama.  The fact that you're still listening makes it all worth it.

We've got one more podcast left for this year, in December, and then it's off to 2010.  One goal I'd like to try to achieve for the coming year is more interaction with our audience.  What do you want to hear from us?  How can we improve?  There's lots of changes coming and we've got some interesting ideas, but we want to make sure we're doing the right ideas and changing in the right ways.

So how are we doing?  Everything ok?  We'd like to hear from you, so go ahead and send us that email or comment on this post.

Just two links this month.  First, in the spirit of that increased interaction I just talked about, we've done a survey to find out what you want to hear from us out of the studio next. 

And second, a reminder to join our mailing list, "Breaking Radio Silence"!  Sign up at artc.org/ and stay current on all the latest audio drama and ARTC news!

Next live show: An Atlanta Christmas at the Academy Theatre in Avondale Estates, GA.  December 5 and 6.

Thanks again!

32 - Continuity

Hello again, and welcome to another ARTC podcast. This week I've chosen to call the episode "Continuity" for a couple of reasons. First, we'll be continuing the episode of "The Crimson Hawk" that we began last week by playing part two of "The Crimson and the Red" by William Alan Ritch.
Next we'll bring you "Unresolved Mysteries, Solved While U Wait: A Very Special Creation" by Ron N. Butler, which, without giving too much away, deals with the continuity of the universe.

26 - A Bridge into the Past

In the words of William Brown, "Due to technical problems beyond our control, we now join our regularly scheduled program."

This week's show is entitled "A Bridge into the Past." Why? Because I needed a name and that's what I came up with on short notice.

Bridge: Actually, one of the things you don't usually get to hear in our podcasts, Dear Listener, is the "bridging material." The short, often one-use scripts that ARTC producers insert into the live shows as buffers in between our more known stories. There is a small but healthy sampling included.

Past: This week's features are a little older than our normal fare. And like the bridging material, they are also things we don't usually podcast. ARTC has had many varied venues in its past. And veteran ARTC performers may (or may not) wax nostalgic about places such as "Eddie's Attic," or tip a mug of Collins Best Coffee in a remembrance of ARTC's Coffee House Days. Or of Guerilla Radio Theater at Manuel's Tavern.

Included:
The Adventures of Hercule Perot. (Last name not a typo, any similarities to any Texas businessman are coincidental.)
Unresolved Mysteries, Solved While You Wait: Phrenotherapy by Ron N. Butler.
A Girl and Her Gryphon by Henry Lee Forrest.
