I do think there's something special about the way that audio drama creators seem to love including cameos of voice actors from other popular audio dramas. Obviously, part of the reason why actors from one show might pop up in another is because the audio drama creator community is relatively small and interconnected, and also because those actors are very talented.
But there's also often such a sense that creators are having fun with these cameos. Like Greater Boston casting audio drama heavyweights Briggon Snow, Zach Valenti, and Felix Trench as famous film actors Matt Daemon, Ben Affleck, and Mark Wahlberg respectively. Or Faux and Stallion having Tom Crowley (who plays a Victorian detective in Victoriocity) pop up as Dr Watson. Or Unseen casting Beth Eyre and Felix Trench as characters who are twins. Or Arden getting Emma Sherr-Ziarko to play an actor impersonating a character played by her former Wolf 359 costar Michelle Agresti (with Michaela Swee also appearing as an actor impersonating the other main Arden lead).
In these cases, it's not just that there's a cameo, but that the cameo is given particular (often comedic) significance to those who are aware of the featured actor's other work. The vast majority of people wouldn't recognise any of these voices. But by doing these very intentional cameos, these creators show confidence that a fair chunk of their audience will know these actors and enjoy the link. There's an awareness that listeners of one audio drama are fairly likely to listen to (or at least be aware of) other fiction podcasts, even when the shows in question aren't of particularly similar genres. Recognising these cameos feels like being in on a secret. It feels like these shows are giving a little nod to listeners to say that we're part of the same club.

Dream On
Tumblr media
(This episode once again features @not-so-dreary-november 's terror pup OC, Jr! Used with permission.)
Between busts and all-night study sessions, the team is exhausted. However, they can’t rest yet. The town is cursed by a supernatural slumber.
The afflicted float above their beds, unable to wake up. When the Ghostbusters investigate one such case, a long white arm reaches out from under the bed and pulls the sleeper in. Jr. bites at the arm and Lucky tries to grab the person, but they are both pulled into a portal under the bed. Podcast, Phoebe, and Trevor follow suit. They each find themselves in unusual states. Lucky is exploring ancient ruins in a far off jungle, Trevor is a movie star, Podcast is a news anchor, and Phoebe is a scientist studying under Egon, who is miraculously alive. If all this seems too good to be true, that’s because it is. They are all dreaming! Jr. is the only one who isn’t affected. She sees they are trapped in a dusty lair made of silky tunnels. Everyone else is wrapped in sheets and unconscious. Jr. is about to wake them up by barking, but hesitates when she notices the shadow of something lurking in the tunnels. Not knowing what to do, she lies on Lucky’s chest and whimpers. Meanwhile in Lucky’s dream, she feels the pressure on her chest and stops. She questions where her friends are and why she’s alone. The beautiful environment collapses around her and she realizes she needs to wake up. When she opens her eyes, she breaks free and thanks the terror pup. The two wake up the others by nudging and whispering to them. Phoebe has the hardest time waking up, but she manages to figure out it’s not her real grandfather in the dream. The monster finds them and reveals herself to be Dreg, a follower of the Sandman and rival to the Boogieman. She is angered that the kids would reject her dreams and vows to punish them with nightmares instead. They just barely escape by exiting through a mattress store. Noticing that Dreg doesn’t follow them and she always stays in the dark, Phoebe suggests light might be her weakness. The team forms a new plan. Dreg is surprised when Phoebe allows herself to be captured again. She asks why. Phoebe explains that she misses Egon and wants to dream of him again, under the one condition that she can sleep in her own bed. Dreg agrees and carries her up. This turns out to be a trap as the team transported Phoebe’s bed to the high school baseball field. When Dreg emerges, they turn on all the lights, blinding her. This allows them to trap her and break the curse. Everyone returns to their beds and wakes up. After making sure everything is back to normal, the kids go to the farmhouse to store Dreg in the containment grid. Jr. takes a well earned nap on the couch and Trevor thinks it’s a good idea. All five of them fall asleep together.

Into the Aether | 225 | Tingle Kiwami
Oh man, as a huge fan of Tingle, let me tell you about Tingle Kiwami - it's a game that puts our favorite little green freak right smack in the middle of the Yakuza universe! And let me tell you, it's incredible! The world is super colorful and whimsical, and Tingle's unique personality and magical powers make the game feel like a fresh take on classic Yakuza gameplay. I had a blast using Tingle's dance moves to make friends, solve puzzles, and take down bad guys. Plus, the story is full of bloody twists and turns that kept me hooked, and the graphics and sound are totally on point.
Discussed: Metroid Prime Remastered, Game Boy & Game Boy Advance, Kirby's Return to Dreamland Deluxe, Sea of Stars, Octopath Traveler II
Listen to the show here 😘

it has dawn on me that like, that image I had of Michael with lots of curls and all is absolutely due to seeing Michael Guerin from that show Roswell New Mexico on my dash here and there. Associations have been made. looking at that guy a bit closer and i'm like "yeah tho. that is Michael even if i imagined him a bit more gangly"

My Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire Experience
First, I just want to say.... HOLY CRAP, I had so much fun! I have waited for this movie for so long, and while there are a few things that I were waiting for that didn't happen, it still lived up to the hype.
Spoilers under the cut.
So, my parents and I saw this in an MXC theater at our local Marquee. The seats were recliners that went back and forth with a button, and I loved that. But the sound system was... very loud. Let's just say, it's like if an audio version of 3D and THX had a baby. It was cool, but I didn't like that. And there were a lot more room in the aisles than their standard theaters.
The previews were surprisingly short, which was a relief. I have been waiting for this movie for MONTHS!
So, first, THAT CHASE SCENE AT THE BEGINNING!
It's no secret how much I love Callie, and seeing her as a Ghostbuster makes me so happy.
When Phoebe called her mother "Callie," my heart dropped a little and I just knew that we were in for a rocky ride.
Hearing that familiar staccato motif just put a smile on my face... which then turned into tears when Egon was mentioned.
But knowing that the music video for the title song is in-canon as well is fucking hilarious.
Ah, Dickless. I did NOT miss you.
Also, how did Peck get elected mayor? He is probably the most unlikable character in the Ghostbusters universe. But then again, a certain someone involved in many legal battles was elected President, so why should I question it?
I LOVE the domesticity of the firehouse scene; dinner, movie night, laundry, all the background.
Also, there's something hot about Callie wearing her flightsuit as pants with the top half tied up.
"GHOST DOG!"
"We both got some action." "Yeah, we did." Okay, already, this film has solidified my love for Callie and Gary as a couple. I am soft for them.
Gary trying to be tough and then apologizing instantly.
Callie Spengler laughs and it cleared my acne.
I know that they're trying to stop the containment unit from blowing, but PHYSICAL CONTACT!
Also, Callie is surprisingly BUFF. Can she hold me, please?
RAY STANTZ, MY SWEET BOY!
He's all but adopted Podcast, he just needs the paperwork.
"The hammer gets the views."
Honestly, I think the Stay-Puft company should just go defunct, with all of the paranormal shit.
JANINE, MY GIRL! SHE'S BACK!
Callie lounging on the couch, scrolling through her phone while sipping a drink is a whole ass mood.
Poor Trevor... but goddamn, it's still as funny now as it was forty years ago.
That longing look on Ray's face as the Ecto passed by the shop...
I did not have "Phoebe Spengler likes girls" on my bingo card for this movie, but... I love it.
Part 2 will be coming soon. I just don't think that I can fit in everything that I loved about this movie into one post.

Podcast: Okay, let's nip this in the butt while there's still time!
Phoebe: ...
Phoebe: Did... you just say "nip it in the butt"?
Podcast: Yeah!
Phoebe: It's "nip in the bud", Podcast.
Podcast: No, it's "nip it in the butt". Like a crab! :}
Phoebe: What? No, it's— [sighs] You know what? Whatever.

Assorted Thoughts about the Greater Boston Season 4 finale
I'd assumed that Leon would 'move on' at the end of Season 5, the end of the podcast as a whole. But now we're going to have a whole season of the podcast without him. It's strange to imagine. There's never been a Greater Boston podcast without Leon Stamatis. There's never been a city of Red Line without Leon Stamatis. We began Season 1 confronting the gap that Leon left behind. We learned that he wasn't quite as gone as we might have thought, but there was still the loss, the grief, the consequences of his death. In an interesting narrative symmetry, at the beginning of Season 5 we'll have to confront him being more fully, completely gone. But I think we'll continue to see the ways in which his life and afterlife have rippled outwards.
~~
Immediately after Nica said Leon had brought people together "like a family", Louisa exclaimed that she needed to call Michael. I can't help wondering if it was Nica's comment that triggered that thought for Louisa. I'm emotional about Michael being family for Leon, Michael being family for Louisa, Michael being someone who was brought into Louisa's life by Leon…
~~
There were two moments of Nica and Dimitri sitting with Gemma in the middle of them holding the crystal ball. First, in the back of Lucia's car, when Nica reached out to touch the ball and Dimitri took her hand instead. Second, on the Ferris wheel as they prepared to say goodbye to Leon. Leon was in the middle between his two siblings - he is what divides them and he is what unites them. They held hands over him, finding awkward togetherness in the presence of their loss, stopping each from succumbing to that loss. Leon was in the middle between his two siblings, but he also wasn't; it was Gemma occupying that space for him.
On a related note, I can't help but wonder whether the Stamatis siblings had habitual positions when they'd sit in the back of a car together as children. I think that's a fairly common sibling thing, and it seems likely that it would appeal to the order-loving Leon. I can't decide if it makes me more emotional to imagine that they usually sat with Leon in the middle like that, or to imagine how they sat on that ferris wheel wasn't their typical childhood order.
~~
The lack of narration and the high number of monologues from a range of characters this episode meant that sometimes I wasn't initially sure whether a scene was an interview snippet from a real person or a monologue from a character. I think there's something significant in that blurring of reality and fiction, in real stories of loss mixed with the fictional. Those interviewees are a part of this story, or this story is a part of our world too.
~~
I loved Michael's mantra being spoken by the group, with each person taking one word. For Michael, that sequence of numbers was a way of asserting his own agency in spite of circumstances and his ideas about his nature. It was a way of saying 'my choices matter, even if I can't change the outcome'. And this moment showed how that idea can be upheld within through community and togetherness.
Michael spoke the word "Eight". And perhaps he wanted other people to take over, trusting that the people around him would complete his mantra, believing that they'd understand what he needed in that moment. Or perhaps he was intending to speak the mantra by himself until Louisa interrupted to support him. Either way there's a uniquely powerful kind of choice made against an indifferent world - the choice for people to stand against that world together. It's a contrast with Michael's often self-isolating tendencies for that mantra to become a shared thing.
