Saw this the other day and it had me rolling! But I figured I would share the lyrics to our main theme! You can head over to our Patreon to check them out! Our Patreon is free with only a single "support tier" since we know times are tough and would rather just foster more places for our community to grow!
(Not so) fun fact that people updated with Hi Nay may know is that I wrote Hi Nay in response to real life Philippine fascism, with our main character Mari, a warm, sweet woman who seems relatively cheerful in the face of all the Horrors, having lived through fascism and having had to do monstrous things to combat it. It all comes back to the Duterte presidency.
The real horror is fascism, and the apathy of the rich and powerful, but we keep living, and despite it all, we find surprising moments of queer joy.
That's what drives the story of Hi Nay. It's why we've never shut up about politics and global issues even if we're an indie fiction podcast. I'm glad so many people have resonated with it in some way.

'You have taken the job. That is why you are here.' The fIrst episode of Part Two of Remnant's debut season lends a fresH perspective on Sir, the Apprentice, and the First and Last Place they exist in. Is it enlightening? That really depends on your defInition of the word.

Remnants is a dark fantasy thriller following the Apprentice as he learns how to read remnants under the frustrating supervision of Sir. Remnants are seemingly innocuous objects but when the Apprentice looks closely, he sees how each one holds the remnants of someone's life story.
Remember this show is often TWFW (too weepy for work). Do check the content warnings if you're someone who often finds that helps.
I rely on your support to pay my bills. Making these shows is a delight and it's also a lot of hard work. Each episode of Remnants takes at least 35 hours to create. It's important to me that they remain accessible to as wide and audience as possible. You can help make all of this happen from £2pcm.
Remember! DO NOT sign up to mine or anyone else's Patreon from the iOS app; they're upcharging you 30%! This money does not go to me or even to Patreon, it goes to Apple. Please use a different platform when you sign up in order to avoid it.
If you can't support my work financially, consider helping out for free! I've put together this handy-dandy guide on how you can do that.
If you sign up before the end of November, you'll also be a part of making a special FLUFF MINISODE of the show!
Another (4) 1-stars. At this point it really doesn't feel worth it to keep the show up since it wont be seen by anyone on Spotify for all this negative engagement out the door. They have done the same on Apple but I assume that since Apple Pods is tied to your phone number they cant abuse the system in the same way. Sigh. I just wanna tell little ghost stories.

Now our Kickstarter is over, have a fresh link to our pilot to tide you over until the rest of season one arrives!
Hoping to release some fun snippets and extras on our feed as we go, so please be sure to follow us on Spotify, or anywhere else you get your podcasts!
WHAT IS THE HOLMWOOD FOUNDATION?
Our story follows Jeremy Larkin (Played by Sean Carlsen) and Maddie Townsend (Played by Rebecca Root), two co-workers at the mysterious Holmwood Foundation, as they are possessed by the ghosts of Jonathan and Mina Harker, and embark on a road trip across the country in an effort to achieve their ghost's wishes: to stop Dracula once and for all.
This is a story about identity and self discovery, family loyalty and devotion, all wrapped around a nightmare of a road trip with a rejuvenating severed head, incredibly sincere Victorian ghosts, and an analogue recorder
Reviews for Episode One:
The Lost Pardner By Charles Clark Jr.
Religious influences on popular culture have tried to outright erase the existence and impact that queer folks have had on western culture and the perception of the Wild West, but poems such as this are a lovely insight into the real Wild West. I often think about the countless perspectives from the Wild West that were buried, burned, and forgotten in one of the brutal and beautiful periods in American History.
Please put some eyes on this and spread it as wide as you can.
Our composer for Re: Dracula, Travis Reeves, is currently fighting aggressive brain cancer. If you have some spare funds to send his way for treatment, please do.
From his aunt: "It appears Travis' best option is to explore cutting edge treatments in specialty facilities for which healthcare coverage doesn't apply. We're racing to raise as much funds as possible to ensure all option doors can be opened."
Your support has been incredible, so appreciated, and insanely validating. When you put a creative piece of yourself out there, you dream of it finding the right audience and it is incredible to me that this show has resonated with so many folxs. Knowing that 10,000 people gave us a shot blows my mind.
Every listen, every share, every review, every rating, every piece of engagement on social media, every single thing YOU all have done has helped to lead us here. So, speaking on behalf of the incredible cast and crew, we at the Dead West thank you so much for showing up & showing our story love! Spotify Apple Web Your Preferred Player
