Sometime around Halloween I was trolling through iTunes while in bed looking for a new podcast to listen to. As many of you know, I am a gigantic podcast whore. I hardly listen to music anymore. I listen to a whole bunch of NPR podcasts, ESPN podcasts, a couple of wrestling podcasts (judge all you want), but around Halloween iTunes was promoting this podcast called "We're Alive: A Story of Survival." I read the description and was like "Wow.....it's a radio drama merged with a zombie apocalypse survival horror story....that's.....so....that's so cool!" So I streamed the first 4 episodes directly to my iPod and was like "whoa....this is really good. The acting is excellent, the writing is awesome, and I'm getting out of bed and downloading the entire series...now!"
Which I did, and I then spent the next 24 hours straight (with a few cat naps here and there) listening through the entire series. I couldn't stop! It was so good! Since that time, I have listened through the series 3 times all the way through, and I joined the online forum....and by join I mean I like....bounded to the head of the class and have become an admin of the forums......
If you're a radio drama fan, you should check it out. You can look it up on iTunes here. If you like it, head on over to zombiepodcast.com, and click on "Discuss" and you can find me at the forums. I won't be too hard to find honestly.
It's always great to get behind artists and actors who are doing something that is such high quality and can create such a buzz. The creators and actors don't make any money on this, but still dedicate their time to creating a really excellent product. So kudos to them, and kudos to you if you listen and support the project!
Ok, geek out time: Over. Have to get ready for rehearsal now. I promise I'll blog about the load in process for Winkie this week. I'll be at 59E59 almost all week putting my first real production on its feet as a production manager. It should be interesting.
