We're so excited to present you another audio drama we love: Moonburn by August Year Round. When a down-on-his-luck 18 year old named Lucas moves into a NYC boarding home for a fresh start, he discovers decades-old diary cassette tapes left behind by the room’s first occupant, Carter. The tapes foreshadow tragedy, but they also lay out a beautiful path for surviving in the city. With the heartfelt stories and invaluable advice contained within these tapes, Lucas embarks on his journey— through the trials and tribulations of life in a new city, accepting himself, creating lifelong friendships, falling in love, and even uncovering a few more mysteries about his new home.Listen to Moonburn here, or by searching wherever you're listening to this podcast right now and looking at these words right now.
