The Strange Last Voyage of the MV Alta
A true story. This is really only a script for an audio drama. I have an actor willing to play Dr.X, just need a Guard and a very silly Special Agent Black Socks. (apologies if the recording is not up to scratch -let me know below and I'll sort/ delete as necessary) Nancy Goodaim will be back mid January ...trying to make the story a bit like 'The Turd Prophecy of Hybobolus Clune' in that it the action kicks off in earnest at the start of the second half, so am purposely giving the story a short break. Happy New Year to you & yours, Brian

Thanks to Jeremy Saje from Madison on the Air for tuning in and giving the story a go -which is a source of pride, and a recommendation if ever there was.

She was given full honours at a state funeral, but after that life in the McGinley household began to slowly fall apart. Untill Anthony found an unfinished novel among his mother's things. It described an allegory for a flawed antihero.

A touch of Social Isolation
A ten minute space adventure to fill the gap to the next Nancy Goodaim episode (out tomorrow). This one dates back to the first lockdown of the Coraonavirus pandemic. It focuses on the social isolation of the elderly during that time. Specifically one sheep farmer I met who was biking into town and was not really aware of what was happening -he inadvertently became the protagonist/ hero of a story that day. Looking back now the story is a bit unclear, but might pass ten mins for ya.

One set on Mars about AI called ‘The mechanical parable of Flumberdink Unterwhackle’. And finall a romantic story titled: ‘love, death and pizza.’
A thirty second story about vanity (The State of You)
'The State of You' is slang used to tell someone there is something up with their appearance (might be unique to Ireland, if it is then the story will prob fall flat;)

Bit of a rush job for this episode -am going to go back and redo it in a week or so as the laptop is on the blink & some bits dropped out, but if you're following the story (and fair play if ya are) then it just about does the job of describing the death of the Jupitarian known as Chuz Rontalpek.

An car crash of an interview on the JR podcast -plan was to promote 'The Turd Prophecy', but podcasting is never straightforward.
I was lucky enough to be interviewed on the Jay Ryan podcast to promote 'The Turd Prophecy'. It all went wrong, but that's podcasting for ya. On the plus side Chapter 6 of 'Nancy Goodaim, Space Ranger' is out this week ...it's a contrast to the first five with only half the protagonists making it out the other side.
If ya want to give the Turd a go it's in episodic or one big download format on here -I promise you'll never have heard anything like it, and also that you'll laugh.
