COLD SHIFT
I have decided that I can do whatever I want to in my ‘blog’!
Wow. That feels good.
So, another podcast recommendation.
This one I found at least four days ago at the time of writing and so far, I have listened to six episodes. Take into consideration how much pressure I put on my free time that’s pretty good going.
The story follows the nightly transmissions from Jaran at the Deep Earth Anomaly Department, East Antarctica. Transmissions may be an overstatement as the radio hasn’t worked in a long time, but Jaran is hoping that eventually when the radio starts working that someone may hear his logs. Even six episodes in I have no idea what year this story takes place in as we have an android Ingrid, aliens of diminutive size who mistook a sneeze as a greeting, a Jaran clone, someone in a mirror and a whole host of other strangeness.
The podcast launched a couple of months ago and is created by a ‘Norwegian Storyteller’, and that’s all I know. I am not even sure of their name. The delivery is unique, quirky and after the initial ‘what is this’ it is quite compelling. The format of recordings of an individual character’s experiences is something that has to some extent been done to death in the podcasting world. However!... this really is unique, the story is quirky and engaging, the delivery is the same and it is absolutely worth the listen.
