Hello Dirt fans, Kris here. While we're busy working away on the next episode of Dirt, I want to introduce you to a show whose Season 2 just released titled I Am Echo.

I Am Echo is about a young woman who discovers her brilliant scientist father might have been killed by her narcissistic mother. And the way she finds this out is through memories that her father implanted in her mind. In Season 2, more memories emerge, and it could be that her father, played by TV actor Tony Shalhoub, is actually reaching out to her from beyond the grave.

I am Echo is produced by Voyage Media, the same company behind the shows Sanctuary and Someone is Killing the Wolfhounds. If you like the fast pace and messed up family dynamics of Succession but with a sci-fi twist, I Am Echo may be your next binge listen. You can find both seasons wherever you listen to podcasts or by clicking the link in the episode notes. And stay tuned right now to hear the full trailer. 

Our sincere thanks for Voyage Media for its support.

From Voyage Media:

Today’s episode is sponsored by Voyage Media’s I Am Echo, Season 2.

When a sheltered young woman, Catherine, finally moves away from home for college, she begins to investigate her family to finally get at the answers behind her father’s mysterious death, possibly connected to her mother, Barbara, who controls one of the largest trusts in the country and is an extreme narcissist. In the process, she discovers repressed memories... that may be someone else’s memories. A new audio drama from Voyage Media, I Am Echo can be compared to a YA Succession with a sci-fi twist.

Three full seasons are currently available, with Season 4 now underway.

Hello Dirt followers and fans. Kris here, creator of the show with another production update to share, and this one has some really exciting news in it. We're finally ready to launch Dirt's fourth and final season. And the first day you'll be able to hear the newest episode is October 3! So if you're hearing this on the day this update went live, that's a little less than two weeks from now.

I know some of you have discovered and binged Dirt from start to finish only recently, while some of you have been waiting for up to a year for the story to continue. If you're in the first category, we are super glad to count you as a new fan. If you're in that second category, I just want to say thank you for your awesome patience. I'd love to say producing an audio drama is easy, but it isn't, especially when it's mostly a nights and weekends project like Dirt is. And this upcoming season has almost twice as many episodes as Season 1 does, so yeah, there's a lot of recording and sound design to do. But we're finally at a place where I feel comfortable starting to get new episodes out there, to continue this story and see it to the end.

So, on that note, the episode release plan for Season 4 is something like this: One new episode will be available more or less monthly. And I say more or less because some episodes might come out sooner than a month, and some might take a little longer. But rest assured, the entire final season is fully written, the actors are commissioned, and you will definitely get to hear all 11 final episodes to finally wrap up the series.

So once again, look for the newest episode to drop in your podcast feed on Oct. 3, and then look for additional new episodes to drop more or less once per month after that.

I know it's easy to forget some of the tiny story details when you haven't listened in a while. And some of those tiny details might be really important. So if you need a plot refresher, you can find written summaries for all three previous seasons on the website. Just go to dirtaudiodrama.com/helpmeremember. The page is password protected, because spoilers, so if you want access to it, just type the word "coins" in the password window, all lowercase.

Finally, I'd like to thank all the actors--those who are returning and those who new--for their continued dedication and enthusiasm for this super fun project. And a huge thank you to my wife Sara for her support and contributions to the show as well.

The season 4 storyline will revisit many familiar locations and travel to some new ones. So, buckle up! Get ready for more twists and turns, big reveals, strange dreams, and, oh yes, more shenanigans from that vintage Coinmaster.

Thank you so much for being fans of Dirt, and see you back here on Oct. 3.

Kris here, creator of Dirt an Audio Drama. While we’re busily working on new episodes for Season 4, Dirt’s final season, I want to tell you about an all-new sci-fi audio drama called Sanctuary.

Sanctuary is set on a future terraformed Mars, where the last woman who is awakened from nearly a thousand years of cryosleep discovers that her husband has become the dictator of Mars.

Sanctuary stars Lily Rabe from American Horror Story. The show is produced by Voyage Media, the same company behind the #1 hit fiction podcast Someone Is Killing the Wolfhounds. To listen to full episodes of Sanctuary, simply search for it on your favorite podcast player. And you can hear the trailer for Sanctuary right here right now.

Our sincere thanks for Sanctuary for its support.

Kris here, with another recommendation for a terrific audio drama that I recently binged from start to finish titled Sorry About the Murder.

Sorry About the Murder bills itself as a very Canadian murder mystery fiction podcast, and it doesn’t take very long to find out why. Set in the nice little town of Beavermount, Ontario, the story revolves around a friendly Zamboni driver who’s falsely accused of committing a heinous homicide involving said Zamboni. (And real quick, in case you don’t know what a Zamboni is, you really need to watch more hockey. A Zamboni is the vehicle that’s used to smooth out the ice for a hockey match or for ice skating.)

Hockey is a major theme in the podcast, because Canada, but also because the local hockey rink—and its nightly matches between teams of townsfolk—is the epicenter of the nice little town of Beavermount, Ontario. Which is why it’s so important for the Zamboni driver, a very endearing character named Frenchie, to try to clear his name by nightfall, so he can ready the ice in time for that night’s big match.

Sorry About the Murder is a drama, yes, expertly narrated over eight very bingeable episodes, but it’s really a small-town comedy full of quirky characters and deadpan humor. Think of it as a cross between Prairie Home Companion, Murder She Wrote, and the TV show Northern Exposure. This is reportedly just the first of several seasons that Frenchie will have to get himself out of a bind, so now’s your chance to get in early and digest all of the goodness that is Sorry About the Murder.

Here, for your enjoyment, is episode 1, titled Bonjour Beavermount. 

Sorry About the Murder and Dirt - An Audio Drama are both part of the Fable & Folly Network.
