This Friday, for our 75th episode, Larry Groebe thought he’d gather some folks together to talk ABOUT the medium. Especially because right now Artificial Intelligence is on so many people’s minds – and it promises to impact audio storytelling like it’s impacting so many other things.
We brought together eight very opinionated folks, plus one AI chatbot, so that you can “Meet The Creators.” It’s a panel discussion with some of best, longest-running modern radio-drama creators in North America — one to get you thinking, starting from a wide-ranging and subtle discussion on what we should even call the medium. We also consider why we even find value in creating new audio fiction in the 21st century. What’s the point in revisiting and continuing this old storytelling art form?
The 45-minute discussion was at different times lively, nostalgic, angry, funny, feisty, thoughtful, enthusiastic, even emotional. Our panelists ranged from coast to coast and both America and Canada. As Artificial Intelligence seems to be replacing human efforts in so many different aspects of life, how should we define the roles of both people and AI in creating twenty-first century audio-based stories. Not a fictional story this month — but the story of why we make audio drama is well worth hearing…
Where there’s dark there’s light there’s hope. Jack, David, and the captive Zug make their way out of the Dark Nebula of Halloween in the Audioverse to explore “Half Hour Audio Hour” which is a monthly anthology of 10-30 minute audio drama scripts from a different playwright each month. This week we feautre: “Blag” by Victoria Morris and with a special chat about the show with “Behind the Blag”
