Details

Leo Quinn works for Better Place, the world leader in ghost removal, but they’re having some doubts about the ethics of their work. They’re building a device that should let them capture the voices of ghosts, to prove once and for all that Better Place needs to start treating spirits with the humanity they deserve – and to unravel some mysteries in the process. Tell No Tales is a serialised fiction podcast — to hear the story unfold, we recommend starting from S1 E1. Distributed by Twin Strangers Productions

Hosted on Pinecast.

Announcement - Delays to S2

Announcement - Delays to S2
<h3><strong>A brief hiatus announcement</strong></h3> <p><br></p> <p>&lt;u&gt;Transcript:&lt;/u&gt;</p> <p><br> </p><p>Hi everyone,</p><p></p> <p><br> </p><p>Leanne here with an update on S2’s schedule. Since the mid-season break, our episode uploads have been a bit more erratic than I’d have liked. This has been for a few reasons, the combination of my debut novel launching last month, along with a few difficult situations in my personal life, and some new surprise deadlines that I need to meet in order to keep creating full-time. All of which has taken a harder hit on my health than I was expecting.</p><p></p> <p><br> </p><p>So, I’ve decided to place Tell No Tales on a temporary hiatus. Nothing too extreme, you’ll be hearing from us again soon enough, but just long enough to make sure than once we’ve got the ball rolling again, you be able to enjoy the rest of the season with no interruptions.</p><p></p> <p><br> </p><p>It’s a tough call, because I am SO excited for the remainder of this season, and I cannot wait for everyone to hear it. Our cast have all completed their performances brilliantly, so these delays are entirely on my end. But in my struggle to edit the audio and the transcripts on time, I’ve felt the quality slipping, which isn’t fair to myself, to our talented cast, or to you as listeners.</p><p></p> <p><br> </p><p>I couldn’t have asked for a more lovely group of listeners, and I do want to thank everyone for your patience and understanding this last month or so. I promise the story to come will be worth the wait. Until then, thank you to everyone who has shared kind words and support for this show. It means the world. Thank you for listening. And remember, the dead don’t bite.</p><p></p> <hr><p> Hosted on Acast. See <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://acast.com/privacy">acast.com/privacy</a> for more information.</p>
