*** Hi folks, Deej here - creator of Moonbase Theta, Out and our new queer supernatural audio drama, Waiting For October! You might have heard about it back when we were crowdfunding, or on our social media as we were gearing up for release, but now our monster story is out there, in the world for all to hear! And we’re hoping you’ll give it a try.  I’ll be honest - it’s definitely a different kind of story from MTO, but there are also some similarities, and that includes a bunch of your favourite Base Theta voices. And we all spend some more time in Feelings Jail.  The following is our story’s Prologue, which we released on Halloween in that feed. Today we also released Episode One, so if you like this, look up “Waiting For October” in your podcast app, subscribe, and you can find out what happens next! Enjoy, and keep watching the Moon … in whichever world you visit! *** Transcript - https://monkeymanproductions.com/2024/10/wfo-s1-prologue-transcript/ Written by D.J.
