Five years seems to be the threshold for a lot of shows lately.
Say what you will, the loss of Variant Frequencies will be the hardest for me.
Can’t say much more than this, other than, Rick Stringer, I’m going to miss this man.
A whole lot. 🙁

Roger Ebert, the most famous name in movie critics used his Twitter account and posted a message about our own Canadian Decoder Ring Theatre.

Audio Drama is not gone folks. At worst it was on life support, and while it lives a secret life from most people today, it is a vibrant and exciting one. Come join us if you already haven’t.
Congratulations, Gregg, Clarissa, and everyone over at the Decoder Ring Mansion. What a triumph!!
In a recent article on The Daily Telegraph Gillian Reynolds despairs in the slow choking out of the BBC’s audio drama department. In fact, the department will now be merged with “documentaries”.
Does the BBC not realize what they are losing? Audio drama across the Internet has been steadily on the rise. It has not been diminishing, it has been gaining ground with old fans and a new generation of listeners.
Please join me and others who love the BBC on the Speak Up For Radio Drama Now! facebook group and have your voice heard!
