The Weirdest Audio Fiction We Could Find

The Great Chameleon War & Hajmiin, + 5 season finales, 2 completed series, and 4 new seasons coming soon!

Note: You are viewing an archived newsletter. Some, if not all, of the show statuses in this ssue may have been updated since this was first published . So when looking at "this week" and "next week" content or reading the next paragraph, keep that in mind. It's not an error. It's the passage of time.

"Oh noes! 😱 Take me to the latest newsletter!"

I'm making this issue the weirdest issue yet by featuring two of the weirdest shows I've come across. No, seriously. Seriously weird. And amazing, assuming you like weird things as much as I do. I just love it when creators push against the edges, don't you? Please give these shows a sample, at least, to see if they are too weird for you. (Well, one show and an album of sorts. See? I told you it was weird.)

Also, because someone asked: No, I'll never accept a paid placement for a coveted Featured spot. But you can, however, advertise your show/network as a Title Sponsor. So if that looks interesting... do it!

Let's get that weirdness started, shall we?

The Great Chameleon War

Dramatized surreal scifi series

Welcome to the Nesting Zone: a surreal rim of jungle around Mt. Tahoma prowled by transdimensional reptiles. The Amanuensis catalogues his expedition up the volcano slope and records stories of explorers caught in the evolving dreamscape. Paleo-mythic lizard pyromancy. Blood whisper secrets. Carnivorous astronauts. Cursed poem hallucinations. Staying sane is not an option: a fiction podcast by Justin Hellstrom - rated M for mature.

Note from Creator:

🦎😵‍💫🌋

Evo's take:

Arguable one of the weirdest fiction podcasts you'll hear. I have it in Fantasy, but that's not quite right. Then again... I don't know which category is correct. This is just... weird. But quite good!
