You’ve probably (at least vaguely) heard of audio drama, or audiofiction, or poetry pods.

They’re all types of scripted podcasts - an increasingly popular way for writers, directors, actors, producers and composers to share their work - showcasing both style and skills - to ever-growing audiences.

This site tells the stories behind some of the most successful scripted podcasts from the UK so far - spanning comedy, sci-fi, horror and beyond.

You’ll see how accessible the medium can be, and how - alongside the fringe show or short film - it’s now one of the best ways to find like-minded collaborators, to develop projects together, and build an online following.
