Welcome to the Lees

podcasts really do like their jobs-for-names. Butcher, Manager, Dollmaker, Rat Catcher, Boneturner, Doomscroller, Puppetmaster, Benefactor, Interviewer, Documentarian, Nameless Historian. fukin. Apache Tracker

One of the best things about being a writer is thinking of something small you can add to your work that’s just. Devastating. Like you’re sitting there going. Oh. That would be diabolical. People would get really riled up about that. Exquisite. Let’s do it.

i keep using 'blorbo' to refer to my own OCs to the point i forget its supposed to be a fandom term. yeah i know blorbo from my shows. and those shows? only airing inside my own brain and the dms of a few lucky friends, baby.

Women's Work: The First 20,000 Years by Elizabeth Wayland Barber and The Fabric of Civilization: How Textiles Made the World by Virginia Postrel go into excellent detail on the technological wonders inherent in, and developed by and for, such "women's arts" as spinning, weaving, dyeing, knitting, and sewing, and just how much of the underpinnings of modern society, industry, science, and economy exist because of them.

looking at the tags i love that ive already found some small podcasts

Ngl, one of the main reasons we started this project was the dream that oneday there'd be fanart of stuff that previously only existed in our heads. Now that it's happening, it's kinda surreal.

A lot of the time I forget that people make and listen to podcasts about normal things. Like just talking. And not a middle aged man experiencing The Horrors. Or gay people experiencing The Horrors. They just listen to people Talking about Stuff. Wild.

Episode 1 out now wherever you get your podcasts!

Over the years I've seen a lot of people lament that they'd like to try podcast voice acting but they have a speech impediment or the "wrong" accent for it or sound too "noticably trans" or suchlike and this is a shame because these are very often my favourite voices to hear.

"I want to but nobody would want to hear me because I [haven't done voice training/have flat affect/stutter/have a strong accent/damaged my voice/haven't started T/have tourettes/don't think I sound very cool/etc.]" Are all sentiments I've heard before. But not only are unique voices so much easier to pick out of a cast, you sound like real people I care about. It makes me happy.

Shocking, people who are into a primarily audio medium have a deep appreciation for the human voice in all its infinite varieties, who knew?
