Starlight Radio Dreams S5E6: "The April Showers Power Hour"

In this episode we learn a great deal about the traditions of the Showtime family and the respect Burlington doesn’t really have for traditions that have worn out their usefulness. We certainly can’t claim that Mr. Showtime is superstitious but he did manage to accept a lot of cryptids and talking animals in this episode which features over an hour of hilarity to keep you busy for at least part of your drive to a small, backyard barbeque.

Featured in this Episode, “Samuel Spruce, the Little Wooden Boy: The Legend of Garbage Day” , “Public Domain Adventure Team: Total War” and “Boozlers in the Basement: April” with shorts, Lesser to None and Bigfoot Watch.

Written and Directed by Kat Evans, Jared McDaris, Sam Locke and Ansel Burch.
Music in “Boozlers in the Basement: April” adapted and performed by Sam Locke.
Featuring the vocal talents of Kim Fukawa, Sam Locke, Kat Evans, Jared McDaris and Ansel Burch.

Audio Editing by Jared McDaris, Sam Locke and Ansel Burch.
The SRD Theme was written and performed by Arne Parrott.

SRD Shorts: Bigfoot Watch

The Showtime Podcast Network has, at best, a tenuous relationship with reality and this month’s cavalcade of cryptids is a testament to our ability to get the best content available even from hosts and presenters who would otherwise be hesitant to release their content outside of blurry podcatchers and the overactive imaginations of people who did see something at some point.

Samuel Spruce, The Little Wooden Boy Ep 3: The Legend of Garbage Day

There comes a time in the life of every little wooden boy when he must leave the confines of his fathers house and go into the world to make something of himself. We’ve been over that with Samuel Spruce. Sadly, making something of himself is a little more complex than it once was and becoming a real boy is seeming farther and farther away. This isn’t going to dampen the spirits of an optimist like Sam though. So, he’s taken a job as a sanitation engineer; a job which is bound to teach him a great deal about society and economy.

SRD Shorts: Lesser to None

Lesser to none brings you the viewpoints of some one the mascots of childhood delusion and this month is no different as the Easter Bunny welcomes the Tooth Fairy into the magical studio where they can finally let it all out and really say how things are in the magical realms these days. It’s insightful, it’s challenging and it might just make your inner child grow up a little.

SRD Shorts: Sleepy Pants (Baking with Missy O' Danagher)

It’s been a full year since our first quarantine show and while we still love bread, it;s clear that the baking has become a thin metaphor. Enjoy this fresh musical episode as the pretense of baking slips farther away. Not to worry though. The relatable content is… right there on the surface.

Samuel Spruce the Little Wooden Boy: Ep 2 "Disgusting Jobs with Mitch McCrow"

When it comes time to do a disgusting job, attitude is essential. Luckily, what Sam Spruce lacks in worldly experience, knowledge of labor laws and a circulatory system is certainly made up for by his plucky attitude. Will this sunny little puppet-come-to-life make it through a day on the job? Will he be able to advocate for himself and his fellows? Find out in this new episode!
