(trying to subtly ask if a guy is straight) is he, you know... a friend of the pod?

It's looking to be a rocky year for people who make stuff on the internet, especially if they're marginalised. Listener support last year meant we could do things like the final series of The Tower and the Camlann live show. It really does make a difference and it is all deeply appreciated

We are live with Celeste!

We are back on Twitch and we are spinning into 2026 with the final level of Celeste! We'll be easing into the new year by reflecting on 2025 and what our hopes are for 2026. 8pm UK/3pm Eastern

Hey folks! Myself and @georgiacooked.bsky.social are creating a TTRPG zine for Zine month this year! The game is a GM-less, tragic horror about explorers trapped by a cave in. It's set in the real world and uses a d6 communal dice pool mechanic. Please give us a follow and spread the word!

Wish me luck everyone

Promise Mascot Agency by @kaizengameworks.com was the best game I played this year. The gameplay loop is both intricate and comfortable but it's also a story about found family and looking after each other that made me feel genuinely hopeful

I have spent most of the last few weeks resting and ignoring the internet almost entirely and, while this is the time of year I'd normally do a wrap up thread, I'm not quite ready to stop resting just yet.

Absolutely delighted to see both Land's End and @camlannpod.bsky.social on @tinkmedia.bsky.social's list of audio delicacies for 2025 alongside an incredible list of shows Thank you @joehasanidea.bsky.social and @martinaustwick.bsky.social for the extremely kind words! tinkmedia.co/audio-delica...

Knives out: the upper middle class are squabbling vicious children who do not deserve their inheritance Glass onion: the new elite are the stupidest murderous cunts alive and deserve your scorn Wake up dead man: those preaching anger as salvation are leading you to death, hope and kindness matter

Time for my Annual Big Bumper Data Backup Day! Also a good excuse for me to remind folk that Preserve This Podcast is essential reading/listening for all podcasters, even the freaks who don't obsess about media preservation *waves cheerily* preservethispodcast.org

Roberta Cowell might have been born into a strict, religious family - but her history is one with many lessons.  This is how a transgender pilot survived the Nazis and set racing records 🏳️‍⚧️🧵

The bar for any podcast that isn’t Unedited 1-2 People Chatting* is also unfeasible. You want me to turn my narrative nonfiction show into a filmed doc? My fiction into a literal tv series? A reminder again to work in whatever fucking medium you want to *also a perfectly good form

A producer friend and I bemoaned the fact that podcasting is rapidly turning into shit TV, so it's bad both visually and audibly. Also, it takes podcasting away from the (free, open) RSS feed and locks it into specific sites, which I thought we all agreed was a bad thing

Gamers. It’s time

It’s the final stream of the year! Will Leon escape Racoon City? God I hope so… join myself and @tincanaudio.co.uk tonight 8pm UK/ 3pm EST over on twitch www.twitch.tv/tobiasweathe...

It's going to be really easy to get scared today, especially after the year it's been in the UK for trans people. The best thing you can do is to take care of yourself and to check in with others in your life. There are enough brilliant people toothcombing the report, nothing's going to slip by us

We'll be back playing Celeste tonight for our final stream of 2025 to celebrate a very busy 12 months! 8pm UK/3pm Eastern twitch.tv/tincanaudio

We are live with Celeste!

4 mins!! get in here~

We are winding down to the end of the year this week with some casual Celeste to celebrate the last 12 months of making stuff. I love this game very much. Join us from 8pm UK/3pm Eastern for our Annual Holiday Hike! twitch.tv/tincanaudio

This episode edit started with a Muppets Christmas Carol bit and then sort of spiralled from there. The stories have been heavy this year, but it continues to be an honour to work with this amazing team and the frankly concerning level of creative freedom they give me

Stop fucking uploading transcripts as well. Those are there for accessibility for people who need them not for your sick games. The creators, or the fans who lovingly put them together for their favourite shows did not do that so you could feed them to the plagiarism machines. Disgusting behaviour.

Stop uploading VAs voices ripped from audiodramas to character dot ai. It is theft and it is sick and creepy as fuck, and the environment destroying GenAI companies are profiting off our work because you are stealing it for them. Just stop.

I'm also finding out about this today. We haven't checked if any of our actors are on here but we will be getting them removed right away if we find them. Do not do this, it is theft, it is a violation

Robin Ince reveals to last night’s audience at a recording of Infinite Monkey Cage that the BBC has forced him to resign over his support of trans people

If you find it hard to accept that the BBC is inherently transphobic, take a look at this.👇 They have a problem with a presenter being openly trans inclusive, but don’t have a problem with presenters who are openly transphobic, such as Justin Webb.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

This was a joke but, dear god, I was not expecting to get gender euphoria from a discounted Dickies boiler suit

We are going live with our last BTS Tower stream!

and I think even more from Qobuz the-ear.net/news/qobuz-p...

We are live with The Tower!

We had our best ever sales numbers over on Bandcamp over the weekend, with Friday being our best ever day (thank you everyone!) The amount we raised from sales was the equivalent of (roughly) 250,000 listens on Spotify. Support the creators you love, buy their stuff

If the reporting on the Peggie decision tells us anything, it should be that the way news gets reported in this country has little to do with truth, and much more to do with narrative - as well as whose heavily spun press release lands on journos desks first.

This week we will be continuing our behind the scenes look at The Tower Finale, this time focusing on the sound design as we open up the main project file. These will be the final Tower streams for the foreseeable future, we'll hopefully see you there 8pm UK/3pm Eastern twitch.tv/tincanaudio

Happy #bandcampfriday! Hearthbound: The Road Trip Version & the Original Soundtrack have dropped on straylungs.bandcamp.com! It's the last day of 2025 where 100% of proceeds go to artists, so each purchase you make helps fund Stray Lungs' next project. Also check out friends-of-the-pod in thread 👇

#BandcampFriday 🔥

It's the last Bandcamp Friday of 2025! We recently released the final series of our experimental fiction series The Tower, as well as the recording of our recent sold out @camlannpod.bsky.social live show! tincanaudio.bandcamp.com

YO. Remember what I said about how the internet needs "Etsy, but not flooded with drop-shipper and AI trash?" Good news! ✨It already exists✨! AND it's a CO-OP. 🎉 Check out @3psboyd.bsky.social's dice shop on there! artisans.coop/pages/seller...

This is so goddamn close to hitting its goal with less than a day left. Support the creation of this incredible show! Back the Kickstarter! Tell everyone you know about it!

The genius of Fallout's morality system is that it doesn't exist. The original game doesn't judge you, it doesn't lecture you. Anyone can be killed. When you finish the game, it shows you the consequences of your actions, and ask you to live with them. It asks you "And then what?"

We are live going behind the scenes of The Tower!

Tonight on stream we will be diving back into going behind the scenes of the score for the final episodes of The Tower. If you're curious what kind of energy to expect, here's my soul leaving my body listening to a particularly heavy bassline 8pm UK/3pm Eastern twitch.tv/tincanaudio

I've just realised today that my website hasn't been sending out replies to contact form inquiries for the past month. I think I've replied to everyone and the issue should be fixed, but if you're waiting on an email from me please do let me know

Over the moon at the news that the season of Trans+ History Week I worked on won Gold at the APAs!

We are live now going behind the scenes of The Tower score!

Now that The Tower is finished, over the next couple of week's we'll be opening up the project file and going behind-the-scenes of how we made the final series. This week we'll be focusing on the music, starting with the score for Summit 8pm UK/3pm Eastern twitch.tv/tincanaudio
