Submitter notes

Born from a collaboration between Goldsmith Radio and Scriptwriting departments and could only exist with the generous contributions of so many collaborators. A true labour of love.

Curator notes

Included in these Collections

All the "to be listened to" stories in our curator's queue.

Stories where some sort of recorder—tape, digital, wax cylinder—is the primary vehicle that tells the story.

Think magazines, other periodicals, or collections of short stories—but in audio.

Slapstick to sketch, improv to irreverent, goofy to guffaws. You know... teh funniez!

Found footage, taped confessions, and other "Hey, read this" tales.

Suggested next listens

THE TRUTH makes movies for your ears. They’re short stories that are sometimes dark, sometimes funny, and always intriguing.
