About

'A Scottish Podcast' is a serialised modern audio drama. It chronicles the story of Lee, a washed up former radio DJ who launches a paranormal investigation podcast. Lee wants to see his show The Terror Files mentioned up there alongside podcasts like The Black Tapes, Limetown, and The Message. And he'll stop at nothing to achieve it. Aided by his jaded musician pal Dougie, the pair travel the length and breadth of the country in search of Medieval Demon Kings and Lovecraftian Gods of the Sea. So why not join them on this unique tour of the ancient and mystical lands of Scotland? You'll walk through the long-forgotten catacombs under Edinburgh. Sail out to the lonely and abandoned island of St.Caillic. Visit dingy pubs, run-down industrial estates, and obscure non-league football grounds. The show contains strong language, "adult situations" (whatever that means), and isn't for the easily offended.

bonus

The year is one hundred and twenty-two after Christ. On the edge of the world, Rome holds Britannia in its grasp. Yet in the north, beyond the frontier, a legion has vanished. Whispers speak of druids, of stones that hum in the night, of a Gate that should never be opened. Soon, an emperor will raise a wall across the land. But before the wall, there was only fear… and those who lived in its shadow. Starring Lewis Davies Owen Staton Michael Hudson Fiona Thraille David Ault Robert Cudmore Sarah Golding Tanja Milojevic Karim Kronfli

Nine years ago the Wells-Dyson satellite picked up images of what appears to be some sort of wreckage on the floor of Titan's biggest hydrocarbon ocean - Kraken Mare. The discovery prompted eccentric billionaire Jennifer Barrie to fast-track an expedition to the mysterious moon of Saturn. The three British astronauts who have just arrived in Titan's orbit have only one job - find out what's lying under Kraken Mare. And potentially answer one of humanity's biggest questions. Are we alone in the universe?
