Richard Summers is a man you’ll like a whole lot.
He’s got a dream that many of us share- that to bring Audio Plays to a larger audience and create amazing radio drama for the world to listen.
It began on Radio Drama Revival with his short and insightful reviews as Captain Radio, and continues now as he gathers together his own group of Audionauts to recreate “The Challenge of the Yukon” for Sonic Summerstock Theatre!
But this is only the beginning of Captain Radio’s adventures. As shown by this article, Captain Radio is setting up his own Sound Cave for many more shows to come. And we await eagerly for the next installment!
[ACTION MYSTERY]
The Shadow has had many incarnations, this time host John Bell and announcer David Ault bring this old time recreation from Jeffrey Bridges and the talented team at Pendant Audio Productions!
[HORROR]
The premiere of Sonic Summerstock 2011 is The Haunting Hour by that great audio drama team from down under- The Drama Pod with Tim Heffernan and company.
Our host this week is our announcer, the talented David Ault!

Presented by
The American Society For Science Fiction Audio
(ASFSFA)
The Mark Time Award is given each year to honor the Best Science Fiction Audio Production on the Planet. And the Ogle Award for Best Fantasy Audio Production of the Year.
Charles Ogle played the first Frankenstein’s creation in Edison’s silent 1910 film of the famous science fiction horror novel. Fantasy includes magical “high” fantasy, sword and sorcery, horror, modern urban fantasy, and other things that don’t fall under the criteria of Science Fiction. But, we’ll be the judges of that.
A Gold and a Silver Mark Time Award, and a Gold and a Silver Ogle Award, will be awarded at CONvergence,, June 30-July 3 of 2011.
What a fantastic collection of amazing conversation collected here from the Golden Age of Radio! Chuck Schaden posts all the amazing interviews in his blog Speaking of Radio. I’m having a listen to his interview with Mel Blanc right now. What a joy!
Our good friends at Broken Sea have done it again!
This time they are the proud owners of the Sir Julius Vogel award in New Zealand where the company is based!
Sir Julius Vogel was the eighth Premier in New Zealand, and back in the 1800’s considered the first New Zealander to write science fiction. His book Anno Domini 2000- A Woman’s Destiny was first published after he retired from politics in 1889.
Broken Sea’s win was under Fan Production for The Doctor Who Podcast with Mark Kalita as the ever present Doctor.
CONGRATULATIONS to Mark, Paul Mannering, Stevie Farnaby, Robin Carlisle, Bill Hollweg and all the folks at Broken Sea!
