    RQ Network Feed Drop – The Cellar Letters

    This month we are featuring a feed drop from The Cellar Letters one of the brilliant shows on the RQ Network. After a series of traumatic events, Nate and his dog, Bella, move across the country to the East Coast. Nate, desperately seeking a fresh start, documents the whole process, exploring the perfect new house – loads of space, a yard for Bella to run in, unbelievably low rent…. But there’s something not quite right. Something about the house feels wrong. There’s knocking noises in the nighttime, not to mention the locked room in the basement, filled with letters about strange occurrences and ghostly figures. Who wrote these letters? And why are they all stored in the cellar? And what, exactly, was Nate running from in the first place? Join Nate, his dog and his friend Steve as they search for answers. Introduction and outro by Billie Hindle. Listen to The Cellar Letters wherever you find podcasts, on the Rusty Quill website and at www.thecellarletters.com.

  7. The Magnus Protocol - Hiatus Announcement

    SEASON 8 TRAILER

    The Magnus Protocol - Hiatus Announcement

    Hello Friends and Fans! Anusia Battersby here, voice of Gwendolyn Bouchard in the Magnus Protocol. We hope you enjoyed the conclusion of Act 1! As with season one, we’ve pre-planned breaks in the release schedule to ensure that our production team has plenty of time to work on the show without experiencing too much crunch. For season 2, these breaks between Acts may be a little longer and more irregular as we balance staff workloads and prep for our full stage performance of Magnus Live: The Hilltop. We have plenty of things in store though. Starting next week, The Season 1 Protocol fancasts will be released to the public over on our YouTube. These were streamed live for our Kickstarter backers and Patreon supporters before the premiere of season 2, and feature myself and other cast members commenting on fan-selected episodes from the first season. So be sure to check us out at youtube.com/c/rustyquill. On top of all the exciting production work at Rusty Quill, we also have several live events coming up if you live in the UK. Join us on Sunday 25th May to celebrate our 10th Anniversary! Alexander J Newall, Martyn Pratt, Helen Gould and James Ross are going to be at MCM Comic Con to look back over the last decade of podcasting from Rusty Quill Gaming to The Magnus Protocol in a panel at 3:15pm on the Live Stage and meet in the Meet & Greet Zone from 12:30pm! You can purchase tickets for MCM now from the MCM Comic Con London website. Or using the link in the show notes. We are also going to be at Norwich Games Fest on May 31st! Members of the cast and crew of our upcoming Neon Inkwell show, Rez High will be speaking at the panel: Changing the Game through Audio Fiction at 3:15pm in the Auditorium. Rez High grapples with timely questions about video games, from accessibility to representation, while sending its cast of irresistible characters on an adventure across both virtual realities and epic, post-apocalyptic landscapes. Join creator Brendon Connelly, director Lucy Wray, editor Katharine Seaton, and performer and disability advocate Lozza Gilbert on Saturday May 31st at the Forum in Norwich and get an exclusive first listen to the trailer. Finally, for those not in the UK, on Saturday, 28th June we will be doing a 10 year anniversary charity livestream over on our Twitch Channel, twitch.tv/rusty_quill. More information on that to come, but we hope you are as excited as us for everything coming this year. We will be back with Act 2 of the Magnus Protocol later this summer. Thanks for listening!
