Folxlore: Recent Episodes
David Devereux
Folxlore tells the stories of queer people living literally and figuratively between two worlds.
In one sense, we try to live normal lives while the world tells us we are not normal.
In another sense, our normal lives are interrupted by a very not-normal rift opening up between our world and another plane of existence filled with nightmarish horrors.
This pilot series deals with themes of first romance, hate crime related trauma, and queer parenthood
Folxlore is rooted in everyday Glasgow, where monsters are always on the edge of your periphery.
A collaboration between In The Works and Tin Can Audio

Enjoy!
Listen to VALENCE: https://pod.link/valence
VALENCE is a serialized fiction podcast by Hug House Productions featuring a full cast and full sound design. VALENCE is an urban fantasy audio drama that deals with themes of abuse, trauma, queer identity, marginalization, rebellion, found family, breaking cycles, and hope. Thematically, VALENCE is a realistic drama with the energy of an espionage-heavy political thriller, an 80’s John Hughes romance, and character-heavy Noah Baumbach indies. Think The Magicians handled with realism, or Mr. Robot handled with whimsy.
We have some exciting Folxlore news coming very soon, in the meantime, we'd like to introduce another queer audio drama: Beneath Our Feet.
Listen to Beneath Our Feet wherever you get your podcasts: https://shows.acast.com/beneath-our-feet/episodes
