At the Penumbra, you might follow Juno Steel, a brooding, sharp-witted private eye on Mars, as he tangles with an elusive homme fatale, tracks dangerous artifacts of an ancient alien civilization, and faces his three greatest fears: heights, blood, and relationships.

Or you might enter the world of the Second Citadel, where the merciless Sir Caroline must corral a team of emotionally distraught all-male knights to defend their city against mind-manipulating monsters...even the ones they’ve fallen in love with.

These audio dramas and more await you in the Penumbra, dear traveler. We hope you enjoy your stay. (Start with "1.01: Juno Steel and the Case of the Murderous Mask" or "1.09: Second Citadel - The Head of the Janus Beast.")

Drag Bingo Storytime with Kevin THIRST community events virtual bingo audiobook

Hello, travelers! Harley Takagi Kaner here with an update about some upcoming events we’re hosting over on The Penumbra Podcast: Special Edition.

We’ve got our first ever Drag Bingo event at 5 PM Eastern on February 16th for our supporters at the The Penumbra Podcast: Special Edition! We’ve been looking for ways to bring our community together during this hiatus, and we can’t wait to hang out with everyone on our new platform. We will be playing a virtual game of bingo, which, naturally, is the gayest of sports. Kevin and I will be there to hang out with all of you as you compete for Penumbra prizes, and the game will be hosted by the fabulous drag queen Ivanna. If you’d like to join us for Drag Bingo on February 16th, you can sign up at thepenumbrapodcast.supercast.com.

If you can’t make it to Drag Bingo, our next new event will be Storytime with Kevin at 3 PM Eastern on March 8th. Kevin will be digging up some OLD short stories from his archives and reading them aloud to us, and I will be his in-person audience because even I’ve never read these ones before. I hope we’ll see you on March 8th for storytime, and again, you can find both of these events at thepenumbrapodcast.supercast.com. That link will take you to The Penumbra Podcast: Special Edition, which is also where we’re releasing installments of our Juno Steel audiobook, If Memory Serves, as well as where all our bonus content will live going forward.

If you don't want to hang out with us and are just waiting for more audio drama, I can tell you that our next show, THIRST, is fully cast, currently in production, and set for release this summer. We are so excited to share it with you then!

I hope you’ll consider joining us at The Penumbra Podcast: Special Edition. Again, that’s thepenumbrapodcast.supercast.com. It’s where you can access all of our bonus content including these new live events, and it’s also how we keep the show itself running. Thanks for listening!
