We continue our spooky season vibes on this episode of Curious Matter Presents to bring you a show that will scratch that Stranger Things itch for all you horror fans out there. We have creator Andrew Crabtree in the studio to give you a guided tour of his uniquely enigmatic show, the Void.

This show asks, what do you know about the dark? When you look into the shadows, do you feel them watching back?

In the town of Milton, the darkness isn't just in your head; it lives in the woods. They call it The Void, a cursed expanse that surrounds the town, swallowing anyone who dares to leave. At the center of the fear lurks the Hat Man, a figure of nightmares, or perhaps something worse...

Sam, a restless teenager trapped by the forest and his addict father, is desperate for a way out. When an eccentric old man hands him a strange pamphlet, a whispered promise of a path through The Void, Sam and his friends begin a harrowing journey that will change everything they thought they knew about their town, their families, and themselves.

The Void is a full-cast audio drama.

Creator Chris Sowa joins me in the studio to give up all the grisly details about the delicious whodunit on this episode of Curious Matter Presents.

Who the F**k Killed My Sister is a darkly comedic murder mystery podcast telling the story of Quinn Reynolds, a reluctant true-crime celebrity with a violent past. One year into investigating her sister’s murder, Quinn finds her first major lead — reigniting bitter feuds with the media, law enforcement, and an unhinged group of conspiracy theorists.

In this Curious Matter Presents we are heading deep beneath the ocean for an immersive science-fiction thriller that is sure to make your heart pump! Plus, we have J. Barton Mitchell in studio to give us insight into what it took to bring the story of Derelict and it's prequel Fathom to life.

Thirty one hours ago, the IWS Crichton discovered the remains of a derelict vessel in an unexplored star system. 

Eleven hours ago, all contact with the Crichton was lost...

When the galaxy's most powerful corporation discovers that the derelict ship belongs to them, they send a group of washed up engineers and scientists who would do anything to reconstruct their shambled lives.

Their objective: find out what happened to the crew of the Crichton, and bring the derelict back...at any cost.

But, as they soon learn, there are mysteries that should remain buried. And there are some things lost that should never be found.
