Signature Eats (and friends) Audio Drama Recs!
For the 2025 Fiction Podcast Zine Festival
Hey Guys!
Bea here!
So, I used to listen to podcasts all the time when I was walking around my neighborhood or taking the subway to school, but I don’t really have a commute anymore cause, you know. Teleportation magic. I still love podcasts though! And I love introducing them to my friends in Solegard to see what they think! Here are a few they really liked plus my favorites. Hopefully, you’ll like them too!
Sig
Dragon's Rest
I tried to get Sig to listen to a lot of fantasy podcasts but this one was easily his favorite. It’s about a bunch of pub workers who run a tavern in a fantasy world...so yeah it makes sense that this was the one he clicked with. In hindsight, I probably should have started with this one! His favorite character is Shax, the ex-adventurer half-orc who owns the tavern. He said and I quote, “I think we’d have a LOT of interesting stories about customers to swap--though I’m lucky enough that my customers aren’t also drunk! Most of the time.”
Happy
Good Morning Evildoers
This one is set up like the morning announcements at a mysterious, super evil conglomerate. They’re hosted by Winifred, the peppy head of HR who says stuff like, “We’re evil, not rude.” I think Happy likes it because it reminds him on a better run version of The Abyss. He’s not actually interested in elaborate plans to take over the world or destroy it or turn it to madness or anything like that, but he has a LOT of opinions about the right and wrong way to do it. According to him, the top dogs in The Abyss could learn a lot from Global Synergy Amalgamated...so I should probably figure out a way to make sure that they don’t get access to this podcast.
In the meantime though, here is a zine I made for Fiction Podcast Zine Month 2025! It has in-character podcast recs from ANA characters! @gmevildoers.bsky.social
