Stranger Than (fan)Fiction Podcast

The expansive world of fanfiction may be unknown to the uninitiated, and is often overlooked or misconstrued. Experience the journey into this fantastic medium of storytelling with four professional actors and best friends who seek to bring these stories and authors into the light! After a theatrical reading, Wes, Rhys, Taha, and Hunter proceed into inspired, humorous, and mostly ridiculous discussions of what was just read and where they think the story could go next! Stay Strange :) www.stffpodcast.com
