The Penumbra Podcast Harley Takagi Kaner and Kevin Vibert At the Penumbra, you might follow Juno Steel, a brooding, sharp-witted private eye on Mars, as he tangles with an elusive homme fatale, tracks dangerous artifacts of an ancient alien civilization, and faces his three greatest fears: heights, blood, and relationships. Or you might enter the world of the Second Citadel, where the merciless Sir Caroline must corral a team of emotionally distraught all-male knights to defend their city against mind-manipulating monsters...even the ones they’ve fallen in love with. Or you might tune into the not-too-distant future of Thirst, a future America somehow even worse than the present, where four couples must survive a dangerous reality TV competition designed by a sadistic host and a cheerfully violent Algorithm. These audio dramas and more await you in the Penumbra, dear traveler. We hope you enjoy your stay. (Start with "1.01: Juno Steel and the Case of the Murderous Mask" to follow the Juno Ste Explicit SIRENS: Season of the Seawitch Travis Alexander This is the story of a machine. A device that runs the world from the basement of the White House. A supercomputer that controls your mind through your smartphone. A machine you never knew existed until now. A machine named SIREN. It's the story about SIREN’s bad Ideas, like FLORA, the data center/powerplant powered by plants, or DODPOP, the Department of Defense Population Control Team, whose primary function is to attack paramedics on emergency calls. And, it's about how DODPOP has affected the seaside town of Salem, Massachusetts. This is the story of a widowed paramedic trying his best to protect his rebellious teenage daughter, who would do anything to be cool, even lie her way into DODPOP just to impress a boy (who would do anything to get out). It's the story of a washed up musician turned townie, who witnesses the love of his life die at the hands of DODPOP, and how his music becomes the catalyst that spark Explicit The Yacht or Nyacht Podcast JD Ryznar, Steve Huey, Dave Lyons, Hunter Stair This podcast does one thing and one thing only: It determines whether songs are "yacht rock" or "nyacht rock." "Hollywood" Steve Huey, David Lyons, JD Ryznar, and Hunter Stair, the team that coined the genre "yacht rock" with their legendary webseries, rate curated and listener-suggested tracks on the highly-accurate Yachtski Scale to build out the playlist of certified yacht rock songs. Their analysis employs a precise scientific method that involves a deep well of musical knowledge, impeccably trained ears, sophomoric banter, and, most impressively, uses a spreadsheet algorithm to add scores & divide them by four. This may sound intimidating but fear not! The hosts let you in on their decades-long friendship and make you feel like part of the team. Can you guess how they'll rate each song? The more you listen, the better you'll get. Explicit The Mike Starks Show Mike Starks Show Welcome to The Mike Starks Show -the podcast where we tear apart the chaos of social media and modern society, one rant at a time! From viral trends that make zero sense to the endless dumpster fire of online discourse, no algorithm, influencer, or cultural trainwreck is safe from our fury. Each episode, we vent about the absurdity of digital life—whether it’s performative activism, toxic fandoms, or the fact that we’re all somehow addicted to apps that make us miserable. This is your escape from the curated feeds and fake-deep takes. No filter, no apologies—just raw, unfiltered rants about the world we’re all forced to scroll through. So if you’re tired of pretending like any of this is normal, grab your headphones and step into the greatest show in all of North America, the Mike Starks Show. Let’s lose our minds together. Mic drop. Rant on. <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-mike-starks-show-podcast--6315393" target="_ Explicit
