If you'd like to leave a rating or review on Podchaser, you can do that by clicking here![Full transcript of announcement below.]Well, hey. Kale here. This is a post-season announcement for those of you who may not follow the @sinkholepodcast Twitter, and I’ve got two big pieces of news for you:The first is that SINKHOLE now has a website (sinkholepodcast.com) where you can read or download episode transcripts, take a look at some of the art I’ve done for SINKHOLE, and also see some truly incredible fanart that was created during the release of season one. The second is that I’m going to be doing a Q&A episode while I’m working on season two and if you’d like to submit a question, you can find a link to do so on the SINKHOLE website homepage. Submissions will be open until Sunday, April 24th. When the Q&A episode comes out is going to depend on how many questions I get and also how many of them I end up answering, but I’d like to get it out by the end of April or the first week of May if I can.Also, if it’s not too much trouble, would you consider taking a minute to leave a rating or review on SINKHOLE if you’ve been enjoying it? It doesn’t really matter where- whatever’s most convenient for you. Now, If you’re like me and use Google Podcasts, which both doesn’t allow users to leave reviews and doesn’t have a fiction section for podcasts for some reason, I recommend Podchaser- it’s definitely the easiest and most accessible I’ve found. But yeah, that’s all for now.Stay safe, and… well, you know the rest. Music was ‘Ambient Bass Deep Atmospheric Pad’ by waveplaySFX.
Season One Q&A

Season One Q&A

2022-04-3025:35

If you didn't want at least part of this Q&A to be terribly silly, you shouldn't have asked so many transparently silly questions. A transcript of this episode is available on the website.  Check out Blake Skye: Private Eye, Breathing Space, Fading Frontier, and the Foundation After Midnight Radio Podcast. Thank you to everyone who participated in our season one Q&A! See you in season two. All music and sound effects used are available under a CC0 license. Music was ‘Ambient Bass Deep Atmospheric Pad’ by waveplaySFX.

Transcript of audio: Hello! Kale here with some post-season announcements. I promise I won’t take up too much of your time. Before I get into it, I’d like to thank everyone for listening to season two of SINKHOLE- I really can’t overstate how much it means to me that so many people are listening to and enjoying my weird little show.And speaking of season two, I’m going to be doing another Q&A like the one I did after season one! So if you’d like to submit a question, you can do that via the SINKHOLE website, sinkholepodcast.com- there’s a button on the front page labelled “Season 2 Q&A Form,” just above the list of content warnings. The other thing I wanted to mention is that you probably shouldn’t expect the same turnaround on season three as you got on season two- I’ve got a lot more on my plate than I did before, and continue to be a full adult human with a full-time job, so I can’t promise another nine-week turnaround. Speaking of having things on my plate, I wanted to recommend you a podcast to listen to while you’re waiting for season three- the Bloody Disgusting network is releasing a brand-new show in collaboration with Canadian horror artist Trevor Henderson- who some of you may recognize as the creator of Sirenhead.Mayfair Watcher’s Society is a found footage-style horror anthology podcast taking place in a world much like our own, but in which the appearance of interdimensional beings is, while not extremely common, not an altogether strange thing. You can look forward to episodes written by folks like Ben Counter, Addison Peacock, Meg Tuten, Henry Galley, Gus Zagarella… and Kale Brown. I was absolutely thrilled to be asked to join this project, and it’s been incredibly fun, so I sincerely hope you’ll check it out when it comes out in October. I’m gonna leave you with the Mayfair Watcher’s Society trailer, but first: stay safe and try not to fall into any holes. [Mayfair Watcher’s Society Trailer Audio]
