- 1 minute 59 secondsThe NoReturniverse Isn’t Dead — A January 2027 Update
A long-overdue NoReturniverse update, and a little funk.
After a difficult stretch focused on family and health, the NoReturniverse is very much alive. From January 2027, Kier plans to make audio drama and audio fiction full time for a couple of years. There may be new work before then: hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
Thank you for sticking around.
