The next StanLand spin-off mini-series is on the way! Episode 1 is coming November 11. And RANDY, an old Mike Sacks series, is coming out of the vault in the new year. In the meantime, here's a fun show we think you'll love!Sorry About The Murder takes place in the nice-little town of Beavermount, Ontario, where every day someone ends up dead, and it’s up to a Zamboni driver-turned-detective, Gaétan “Frenchie” Arsenault, to solve the case and clear his Québecois name… all before he has to clear the ice for tonight’s hockey game.Equal parts “cozy small town” and “absurd murder mystery”.Find more at sorryaboutthemurder.ca or follow @sorryaboutthemurder on Instagram Hosted on Acast.

It contains strange new audio files that appear to be recorded by Zyngians.In this debut episode of The Lost Podcasts of Zyngia, intern Casey Bingham introduces us to Dumpsters and Deadbeats: a simple role-playing game hosted by Chip McSparklebottom half-leprechaun, reluctant heir to Stan Little, and self-proclaimed “dumpster master.” Along with orc couple Ookla and Ghashara Bloodspear, Chip beta-tests his thesis project at the Wizened Wand School of Magical Enchantment: a role-playing game set in modern-day Earth.

StanLand is a five-part satirical audio series featuring Rhea Seehorn, Bobby Moynihan, Steve Little, Timm Sharp, Jon Hamm, John Waters, and more.When cynical podcaster Melanie Hughes (Rhea Seehorn) vanishes without a trace, the only clue is her abandoned recorder, discovered by the side of a road in Poolesville, Maryland. What’s on the tape? A story that begins with a dusty Ikea wardrobe… and ends in a magical realm slowly being swallowed up by fast food chains, retail shopping, and vape stores.Enter Zyngia: once a land of wonder, ruled by a talking lion (Steve Little), now a cautionary tale of what happens when fantasy meets modern consumerism.At the center of it all? Stan Little (Bobby Moynihan). Unemployed. Unremarkable. Possibly the last person you’d want on a magical quest. And yet… here we are.Equal parts epic, absurd, and uncomfortably familiar.Written by Mike Sacks and S.G. Wilson.Brought to you by The Sonar Network and Odenkirk-Provissiero Entertainment.
