Greetings, and welcome to The End Last Week, This Week, and Next Week, the podcast companion to The End, the weekly newsletter that shines a light back on audio fiction shows after they've reached the finale of a season or the conclusion of the series. I am your host and the curator of The End, Evo Terra.
Let’s get into it, shall we?
Last Week
The most recent issue of The End - the 41st - highlighted 6 shows in the Season Finales & Finished Series section, and 3 of them wrapped within the last week:
- 📖💀⛵ • Eternal Strife, a dramatized comedy from Bruce Windwood, posted the final episode of the entire series on June 11th. You can listen to all 22 episodes of the 4 seasons in about 11 hours. Listen to the end of the episode to hear the trailer.
- 🔎🔫🪦 • Riordan's Desk, a narrated mystery from Mark Coggins, posted the final episode of the 5th season, which is his novel, The Immortal Game, on my birthday, June 10th. It’ll take you about 7 and a half hours to the 30 episodes of this season, or just over 45 hours to listen to all five seasons. Of note: Riordan’s Desk is included in Top 30 crime fiction podcasts. I’ll link to that in the episode details, and his next season starts… next week. A sample of the first episode is included at the end of this episode.
- 🌎🤰🤯 • Expectant, a dramatized fiction podcast from Pippa Johnstone, wrapped all 6 episodes on June 8th. This is a quick listen, at just over an hour and a half to listen to the complete story. And shockingly, the trailer for Expectant will play at the end of this episode.
This Week
With every issue, I made two recommendations for great audio fiction I personally love. As will all things in life, YMMV.
- 🔪🧟♂️😭 Up first is Unkillable, a narrated horror thriller from Patrick E. McLean. This is a blast from my past, as it was first published as a podcast on Podiobooks.com, a service I ran from 2005 to 2015. Patrick is one of my favorite storytellers, and Unkillable is no exception. Here’s a snipped from the first part of the first episode, recorded way back in 2010. [snippet plays] You can, and should, listen to Patrick narrate all 19 episodes of Unkillable. It’ll take you about four hours
- 📼🕯️🏃 My next recommendation is Video Palace, a dramatized horror show from Shudder. Yes, THAT Shudder. I love creepy, you-probably-shouldn’t-do-that content on its own, but layer in Shudder’s incredible commitment to sound quality, and this is a huge hit. Here’s a sample from early in the first episode. [sample plays] Video Palace is a complete story. Give yourself just over three and a half hours to listen to all 10 episodes.
Next Week
The latest issue of The End has 2 entries in the New Seasons Coming Soon section, and one of those restarts occurs next week.
👹🩸😱 • Hex Noir, a dramatized horror from Hilmar Loftsson, which you might remember from its appearance last week in the Last Week segment of this show, will start its 3rd season on June 21st. Catch up with the 18 episodes of the first two seasons in a little over 7 hours. If you wait just a moment, you’ll hear a sample of the first episode of the 2nd season..
And that’s all for this episode of The End Last Week, This Week, and Next Week. For these and the other audio fiction shows featured, highlighted, and coming soon that were included in the 41sth issue of The End, including links to listen to the shows mentioned in this episode, please visit TheEnd.fyi.
I’m Evo Terra. Thanks for listening.
