The Reviews are In!

May 7, 2017 / Jack / 2 Comments

Recently there’s been a lot of hay made about the #audiodramasunday hashtag weekly on Twitter. We think it’s a fantastic way to get the word out for those who haven’t yet got on the Audio Drama Trolley (we’ve got multiple cars give us a try!) But for those of us who already listen to audio drama the rest of the week, how can we help out?

Perhaps you can make Sunday your review day. Most shows RSS Feeds can be found through i-tunes and lately we at the Sonic Society have made Sundays our day to attempt to systematically write i-tune reviews for all our favourite shows. Because that would take an inordinate amount of time, we’re keeping our list to three shows a week. How about you?

Try the three reviews a week Sunday challenge!

Honestly, it’s not easy to go write reviews in the first place, but here’s a couple of methods:

First, if you’re like us old schoolers, Hubspot has an article to show you how to write a review in itunes on Windows or Mac computers.
Secondly, if you prefer to operate with the podcast app on your phone, iMore has a great article on how to write a review using your iphone or ipad.

Lastly, if you’re a producer, you can sign up and check your reviews from all around the world monthly with a free account at MyPodcastReviews.com

So what are you waiting for? Go out there and get more folks on i-tunes checking out how hot radio drama is….

And hey, what better way to start than writing one for the Sonic Society? You hit EVERYONE then! Happy Reviewing!

Happy World Audio Drama Day!

October 30, 2014 / Jack / 0 Comments

All around the world, we celebrate our very first WORLD AUDIO DRAMA DAY!

Thanks so much to Sibby Wieland, David Jarvis, Sonia James from Sound Stages Radio who came up with the original idea and have worked so hard to get the word out. And special thanks to Pete Lutz from Narada Radio Company and Fiona Thraille from Cooperantem Radio for all their work and interest in promoting this celebration on Facebook and through the rest of social media.

How can you celebrate?
Here’s some things to consider:

1. Share a radio drama with your family tonight. Turn off all the cell phones, other technology and extraneous lights and enjoy a drama.

2. Share an audio play at dinner with a loved one.

3. Find your favourite audio theatre episode and listen while you drive to work.

4. Download some shows you’ve always wanted to listen to, but never had the chance for your workout session today.

5. Send around a link to your friends with the twitter tag #HappyWorldADD of your favourite shows from modern audio theatre

6. Talk to people about your favourite shows.

7. Clean the house or dishes old school with an audio drama playing.

8. Go for a nice long walk timed to an audio pulp production!

9. Bake some holiday food while listening to an audio show.

10. Burn some CD’s of some awesome audio drama and leave it randomly for people to find.

In whatever way you intend to celebrate today, have fun doing it and let us know!

Find the World Audio Drama Facebook Community and Twitter and we’ll see you- out in the world!

A Tweet that’s not Twaddle

It happened.

It really happened.

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

This goes into my thoughts that the longer running modern audio theatre is out there, the more folks will find it, and the more it will creep back into the consciousness.

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!!
