Is anyone using their acting talents in the podcast sphere? Either in a radio drama or in a podcast about acting? Let me know. I am currently doing a couple podcasts that I write and produce myself just to keep the creative juices flowing. I'm wondering if anyone else is doing the same thing. Thanks.

Hi Will and yes! I know a couple of actors doing this kind of thing and I am also developing a podcast (about writing); one of the actors I know is working on developing a podcast highlighting more obscure/forgotten works from the past - poetry, plays, stories. We've been talking about crossing over/collaborating. I am also helping out with another podcast, based in the US, also shedding light on material from the past - Victorian annuals, in a comedic style (think Wordsmiths of Gorsemere): we have around 4-6 actors performing period (melo)drama, ghost stories, comedies.
What are your podcasts about? where can we hear them?

I'm relaunching The Actor Podcast in a couple weeks. I'm also writing a scripted podcast series and helping to produce another.

Thanks for the comments. Put a link to your podcasts so I can listen to them.
My two podcasts are:
The Bell Howard Show at anchor.fm/bellhoward - it's a fictional character I made up and it's a call-in show parody.
and
Fushigi Times, a sketch comedy / fake news show at anchor.fm/fushigitimes
"Fushigi Times" sounds like a fun podcast, Will Regan. The description reminds me of "The Onion."

It's not active any longer - but I had friends who ran a podcast called Barely. Audible. Whisper - an ode to NPR! https://barelyaudiblewhisper.podbean.com/
You may find some inspiration there!
