'We Fix Space Junk' follows seasoned smuggler Kilner and reluctant fugitive Samantha as they travel the galaxy, dodging bullets and meeting strange and wonderful beings as they carry out odd jobs on the fringes of the law. A female-led sci-fi comedy sitcom set in the far future, in a high-tech, dystopian world, We Fix Space Junk draws on the sci-fi of the past, following in the footsteps of Harry Harrison and of Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Equal parts love-letter to sci-fi and satire of the present-day, Space Junk is lovingly produced by Beth Crane and Hedley Knights of Battle Bird Productions.

Hey! We’re just dropping in to let you know some things!
So! First and most importantly, we’re hard at work on Season 4 — we’ve recorded Kilner, Samantha and DAX alongside some of our guest stars and we’ve got lots of recordings scheduled! We're working with some really fun people this season!
Next step after recording is dialogue editing, then sound design, music composition and mixing and mastering! So we're going to be really busy for a while, but in the end it'll all be worth it!
Season 4 coming and we can’t wait to share it with you!
But! We also wanted to let you know about our new sponsor, Intra Quest, a new fantasy adventure audio drama. It’s co-produced by the wonderful Adam Raymonda, whose name you might recognise from sister show Forgive Me.
Intra Quest follows three adventurers in a distant future as they embark on a quest that will — hopefully — save the world from a lurking evil.
It stars a whole host of talented video game voice actors, including the voices of Megara from Hades, Mercy from Overwatch and Arthur Morgan from Red Dead Redemption II.
If you like We Fix Space Junk — and we’re assuming you do if you’re listening! — we think you’ll enjoy Intra Quest. We got to listen to the first episode and we really enjoyed it. It’s full of action, adventure, quips and really detailed sound design, as well as really fun characters and bizarre situations.
You can find Intra Quest anywhere you listen to podcasts. Listen on, and we hope you enjoy it!

Hey! We hope you’re having a good December and are looking forward to hearing our Brucemas Specials. We’ve been hard at work on both the main feed mini and the full length episode which will be available to pre-order in our GumRoad store very soon and will also go out to all of our Patrons!
In the meantime, we thought you might like to hear a special, festive episode of RPG: Realms of Peril and Glory. We’re playing a game called A Christmas Caper, and it stars me, Beth, aka Kilner as Scarlet Adelie, a penguin who really wants to fly…
A Christmas Caper is a really fun game by Zachary Fortais-Gomm, who also GMs this session. The episode also stars some names you might recognise, including Felix Trench and Laura Girling.
If you like what you hear, you can find episode two here or by searching RPG: Realms of Peril and Glory in your podcatcher.
The transcript is available here!

For this episode drop, sponsored by Realm, we have something a little different -- an interview with Laura Purcell, head writer on Roanoke Falls and author of several fantastic historical horror novels including The Silent Companions and The Shape of Darkness.

The Shape of Darkness has just been released in paperback! UK listeners can buy a copy here and international listeners can find a copy here!

We hope you enjoyed the second season of Marilyn's Diary! We're now hard at work on the Halloween Special, and we're already working on the outlines for We Fix Space Junk Season Four!
But in the meantime, we just wanted to let you know about a really cool new show from some dear friends of ours.
Zachary Fortais-Gomm, creator of the Orphans, recently started a new podcast, RPG - Realms of Peril and Glory. It features some of our absolute favourite people doing one of our favourite things -- playing RPGs.
Their first season, Vael, is an epic mystery thriller, set in New Harbour, a city of magic, monsters and machines. They've got five episodes out so far and a new episode coming every Wednesday.
The format for Vael is really cool -- while Zack sets the scene as the Game Master, James Barbarossa plays all of the NPCs. At the table are Laura Girling, Maddy Searle, Liz Campbell and Pip Gladwin, whose voices can be heard on shows such as Victoriocity, Wooden Overcoats, Prickwillow Papers and, in fact, We Fix Space Junk!
It's fully scored and sound designed in a way that really brings you into the action. We've really loved listening and we think you'll love it too.
And if that wasn't enough, you'll be able to hear both of us in future seasons!
So, here it is! Episode one of Vael, from RPG: Realms of Peril & Glory.
If you like what you hear -- and we hope you do! -- you can find Realms of Peril & Glory on any podcatcher you like or by clicking this link! The episode transcript is available here.
Enjoy!
