Hello havoc wreakers and welcome back to our little dose of hope. If you're just joining us, I'm Lauren Shippen, creator of Two Thousand and Late and, in an effort to balance out all the shitty stuff the audio drama tackles, I talked with some incredible artists, creators, and activists who are grappling with our twisted reality and doing hella cool stuff to counteract the bad.

This month, I'm talking to Gabriel Urbina, creator of The Harbingers and audio drama creator extraordinaire. We talk about writing power narratives, magic, and flawed characters. And then we play the first episode of The Harbingers!

GUEST EPISODE: [REDACTED] Mar 20, 2026

Show notes

Hello havoc wreakers! This month, we have a guest episode from the fabulous [REDACTED] - take a listen and then go catch up on the entire show!

EPISODE TITLE: [REDACTED] S1E1: False Start (Part 1)

—--------------

Introducing [REDACTED]; from Athan (The Grotto) and Jamie Petronis (The Cellar Letters)

Following the death of his twin, failing actor Jacob Kane assumes his late-brother’s life in hopes of a fresh start. Instead of finding stability, Jacob finds himself working within The [REDACTED] Unit, a covert agency tasked with containing impossible creatures and phenomena. As he becomes entangled with paranormal forces and secret agendas, Jacob begins to discover a sense of belonging in a place he never expected.

Equal parts horror and workplace satire, [REDACTED] takes inspiration from late 90s & early 2000s television like procedural monster-of-the-week shows X-files & Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and the classic ensemble banter of Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Psych.

Show notes

Hello havoc wreakers, and welcome back to our little bonus show, where we try to find the hope amongst all the havoc. These are a mix of conversations aand guest episodes - we're hoping to spotlight more activists in the near future but many folks we planned to speak to are, understandably, a bit busy right now. Thankfully, there are a lot of places to find hope, and this month I was fortunate enough to speak to the lovely Emma Sherr-Ziarko - who plays Didi in our show - about her Shakespeare podcast, Pod's The Thing.

Pod's the Thing is a Shakespeare Podcast that shows a glimpse behind the curtain into the process of working on Shakespeare's Text. Each episode is part conversation and part performance, as we dive into one Shakespearean scene at a time.

GUEST EPISODE: Give Me Away Dec 12, 2025

Show notes

This month, we're sharing a show we love: Give Me Away from Gideon Media.

They call the spaceship that crashed in the Nevada desert “The Ghosthouse” because it screams—the screams of thousands of extraterrestrial political prisoners uploaded into its horrific mainframe. The only way to free them... is to transfer them into the bodies of humans willing to share their minds with an alien second consciousness. But who would volunteer for that? Graham Shapiro, divorced and adrift at age 50, is one of the first to raise his hand. Give Me Away follows Graham’s journey into a world of radical hospitality, one which will touch everything—and everyone—in his life. Written by Mac Rogers, directed by Jordana Williams, sound designed by Bart Fasbender, music by Adam Blau. Cover art by Kate Kosma.

This episode is from Season 3 and features Lauren Shippen's character Noa/Jade. If you like what you hear, find Give Me Away wherever you get your podcasts!
