February 17, 2012 By 6 Comments

Brad Lansky and the Anti-STARC Cover ArtSci-Fi February 2012 dazzles with yet another bonus-sized podcast which exposes the labyrinthian dangers and intrigue in HartLife NFP’s vision of a near-future dystopia, Our Fair City.

Join us as we burrow in earnest into the mysteries held within Our Fair City, Season One. Mid-way through our exploration, Fred interviews in-depth the top creative minds from HartLife NFP ‘s sizeable consortium of talent tapped to produce already nearly two full seasons of Our Fair City.

PRODUCER: Hartlife NFP productions at OurFairCity.com.

RATED: AD-PG

Also, Radio Drama Revival’s signature host, Fred Greenhalgh, at last returns from his extended holiday in magnificent South Africa, exhilarated, jet-lagged, and, it seems, needing a gauge or two reset. Our out-going guest-host, Captain Radio™, and Fred’s stoic cat, Socrates, quickly sort out the problem and help Fred to get his groove back. Then it’s time to teleport Captain Radio™ back to Aurala  where we learn quite an uncertain “welcome” awaits.

So get set, Audionauts™, for another epic Radio Drama Revival extended-length special edition podcast as Sci-Fi February 2012 once more cruises the audio cosmos!
