Featured episode, “Hungover Psychic Insider Trader",” from To The Manor Borne By Robots.
John Eder’s excellent sci-fi and storytelling-focused podcast To The Manor Borne By Robots earned some well-deserved praise recently, netting a Platinum-level nod from HEAR Now Festival 2020. The festival ran in June and describes itself as, “a gathering place where the work of master storytellers is celebrated and shared”, and includes audio content as diverse as sound art, podcasts, radio dramas, audiobooks, and live poetry recordings.
To The Manor Borne By Robots is a deeply artistic form of sci-fi storytelling, working solely through sound and carrying several layers of narrative and drama at all times. Episodes have been recorded at Dubway for years, and often involve sound design as well as voice recording and effects. Dubway engineer Zac Suskevich helmed the sessions for these podcast records, working closely with Eder and cast to capture the sound of the world(s) of the show.
