Narada Radio Company Audio Drama

Just in time for Father's Day, here's the new mini-sode, which we call "A Word from Our Sponsors". Just a few loose commercials that would have run during "The Narada Audio Drive-In", were that still running as scheduled, but too good to let sit around, if you want my opinion.  Anyway, here are commercials from longtime sponsors Arrowhawk Trail Mix, Stoopnagle's Coffee, and The Turnbuckle Televisi...

AT LAST! AT LAST! The newest episode of Pulp-Pourri Theatre! Many apologies for making you wait, and I hope you find it was worth it. "The King's Prerogative" tells the story of a poor man who is released from prison by the king of Trayga, but only if he performs a special favor for the monarch. Written by Mike Murphy and adapted by Pete Lutz, it's the tale of deceit, murder and witchcraft! Stay t...

Because I am unable to post more than one episode per month on my free account at Podcast Garden, I am posting this here and then on June 1st I'll post it there. But I couldn't let this wait any longer -- it's a wonderful interview with one of the most talented and sought-after voice actors I know, Tanja Milojevic. In this installment we chat about her many roles over the years, her personal accom...

Here are chapters 3 & 4 in the continuing saga of our Old West hero, Jake Dimes! Our chapters are entitled, "Ambush on the Trail", and "Arrested!"  I'm happy to say that we have received two fantastic reviews at iTunes, so if you get a chance to see them, please do. I agree with their sentiments wholeheartedly, of course. :-) And while you're there, why not leave a review yourself? It takes but a...

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! Narada Audio Drive-In is no more but both Pulp-Pourri Theatre and Jake Dimes are, so we're re-issuing the first five chapters so you can hear them as standalone eps before we launch the all-new sixth chapter! Enjoy! "The King's Prerogative", our next Pulp-Pourri Theatre presentation, is still in production but will be released before the end of May. (I hope...) Thanks for being...

Originally released in November 2013, this is the absolute last original episode from the archives that we can post. And to be honest I didn't want to release this one because the sound quality is not up to our current standards. But I've had it cleaned up a bit by Steve Blizin of the Drift and Ramble podcast (check his show out on iTunes, it's awesome), and I think it's ready to be heard (again)....

One of the many special features that appear between-the-acts of episodes of Pulp-Pourri Theatre is the Philboyd Studge Interview: our intrepid reporter travels the globe, chatting with interesting, yet wholly fictitious, people who might have an unusual occupation; or an unusual name; or own a business with an unusual name. In search of the unusual, that's our Philboyd! Here they are, in order of...

Recording of a live performance of the Narada Radio Company, at RealmsCon 2015 in Corpus Christi, TX. Originally released 10/30/15, on archive dot org, in honor of World Audio Drama Day. Our production has all the earmarks of a live performance: people coughing, folks walking in and out of the room, etc. Try not to let that distract you too much.  "Inner Sanctum Mysteries: Death of a Doll" was ori...

An entry in the Sonic Summerstock Playhouse for 2016, "Good Ghost" was reenacted from a 1948 episode of the classic radio show "Quiet, Please".

I can hear you cry, "WHAT!? Two new NADIs in ONE MONTH? Pete, what's the matter with you?"  Well, sometimes that's what happens, and now, with the launch of NADI #5, we're only one month behind instead of two.  With this episode we announce our membership in the new "Fatecrafters" Network of shows. Listen for the special trailer between 1 and 2 for a new show by our friends and co-members at Audio...

RATED PG-13. A CO-PRODUCTION OF 63audio and LEAP AUDIO. This is the story of two gay couples and their fight to challenge the constitutionality of California's Proposition 8, which went into effect in the first decade of the 21st century. Prop. 8 essentially made it illegal for same-sex couples to marry. Fashioned from actual dialog, TV political ads and court transcripts, "8" is a moving, grippin...

Here's the trailer for our next release, an audio drama called "8" by Dustin Lance Black, author of the "When We Rise" TV miniseries currently being aired. "8" is about California's Proposition 8, which questioned the legality and necessity of same-sex marriage, and which was voted in by Californians in the first decade of the 21st century. Two same-sex couples went to court to challenge that law,...

A special re-release from the vaults, this one is a show I created for Mark Slade's "The Hangman's Dozen" anthology series. It's called "Four Minus One", and was originally released as a co-production of 63audio and 4077th/All Better Audio, on 2/26/16. Set during the days when "Old Time Radio" was just "Radio", Four Minus One is about actress Marjorie Vining, longtime star of the hit radio series,...

I'm happy to report that progress has been made on the latest Narada Audio Drive-In episode, and I'll be able (if my luck holds out) to launch it NEXT SUNDAY! Meantime, please enjoy this offering of our funny bits from Season 2 (the second helping)!

As I continue working on the many projects I've foolishly gotten involved in (but wouldn't miss for the world), I want to keep up my practice of releasing something every Sunday, because I hope you've all come to expect it and depend on it. This week's offering is part 1 of S2's line-up of fictitious commercials and special features, and I hope you will enjoy them as much as, if not more than, S1'...

  As I am still working on several projects at once, one of which is the newest episode of Narada Audio Drive-In, I almost forgot to load something for your podcast feed, dear friends! Here is part 2 of our S1 compilation of the special features and fictitious commercials from Pulp-Pourri Theatre!  One of the other projects is an all-new serial planned for release in S5, called "Lola, Queen of the...

Everybody loves to hear the words, "We'll be back with more Pulp-Pourri Theatre, after this important message," because that means it's comedy time! Yes, here are the commercials for fictitious products and special features from the very first season of PPT. We had kind of a rocky start with these, but once we got to S1 E4, we really hit our stride. Please enjoy these comedy treats and tidbits, an...

The little gems of comedy from the twisted mind of show creator Pete Lutz are presented here in no particular order, guaranteed to entertain the way they did the first time you heard 'em!
