![]() ![]() If you’re into bone dry, morbid, British humor, you owe it to yourself to check out one of their episodes. I had the pleasure of attending a live performance by the folks from Wooden Overcoats.I attended a lovely coaching session with Robin from Coaching for Geeks in which we, as a group, talked about the challenges we faced in our creative endeavors and gave each other tips as to how to overcome them. ![]() The day had so many great moments that writing them all out in detail would surely be out of scope for this little article, so I present them to you in list form: In addition to our morning crew, I also had the honor of meeting voice actors James Cleveland and Brian Mansi, as well as the authors Henry Galley, Meghan Tuten and Gemma Amore. I would be lying if I said I didn’t feel a genuine twinge of pride for being part of this project when I saw it all laid out.Īs soon as we had set up, the visitors started trickling in, and we had countless amazing interactions with the podcast’s fans, who - I have to say - are a very pleasant bunch. It’s amazing how much professional artwork and graphic design the podcast has accumulated over the years. The PodUK staff honored us with a table we could spread out on, so Erika and I started decorating it with our merchandise. I was especially happy to meet these two because (apart from being awesome, genuinely warm, and friendly people) they were the exact two voice actors who lend their voices to Minnie and the nameless protagonist, the characters of Word & Color, the first story I wrote for the podcast. While we were still busy getting our bearings, we were already set upon by Erika Sanderon and David Ault with impetuous hugs and warm welcomes. PodUK is, as the name might suggest, a conference centered around podcasting and those who do it, focused, not surprisingly, around the British podcasting scene.Įarly on Saturday morning, we arrived (a little grumpy after having to switch out the morning coffee for the customary tea) at Millenium Point (the venue for this event). Last Friday, my partner and I boarded a plan and set off on our merry way to Birmingham, UK, to attend the PodUK conference. After providing artwork for the NoSleep Podcast for four years now, the day had finally come: I finally got to meet some of my lovely coworkers. It features a variety of narrators and authors, some of whom would continue being regulars into later seasons.Last Friday, I woke up with butterflies in my stomach. It features 18 episodes as oppsed to the usual 25 from seasons 2-onward. Season 1 premiered on June 13, 2011, with it's finale premiering on February 5, 2012. ![]() Episodes might not feature as many tales as earlier seasons, but feature a more sophisticated production, more voice actors, and other amenities. Seasons 6-9 have seen the show grow even more in popularity, so much so that Cummings has now made the podcast his full-time job. Free episodes are usually cut to 1-3 tales, leaving Season Pass holders access to the other 2-4 tales featured on the complete episodes. Seasons 3 saw the introduction of the Season Pass program, where subscribers got access to full episodes as well as a few bonus ones. Episodes in these seasons featured 4-7 tales each episode and usually lasted anywhere from 105-160 minutes. Seasons 3-5 saw a growth in the show's popularity. Episodes featured 1-5 tales and usually lasted no longer than an hour or so. ![]() In seasons 1-2, the show was getting used to it's now regular format. Dedicated to showcasing original stories (usually from Reddit's Nosleep forum, where the podcast got its name), this long-running podcast has seen a steady fanbase grow over the course of the nine years it's been on air. The Nosleep Podcast is a podcast started in June 2011 by David Cummings from an idea by Matt Hansen.
