Ten-year-old, Andy Smithson believes he is merely a kid too often in trouble–until his destiny as the Chosen One to break a 500-year-old curse is revealed. Swept away to the land of Oomaldee of medieval times era, he discovers he must collect several ingredients for a magic potion to defeat the oppressive curse that plagues the land, the first of which is the scale of a red dragon, the fiercest of all dragon species. There’s just one tiny problem, he’s never battled dragons, except in video games. Armed with only his wits, an ancient sword and a magic key, he must overcome grave peril at every turn before he can even attempt the feat. No pressure, but it’s his skill alone that will save – or condemn – the kingdom forever.

A fast-moving history of the western world from the ancient world to the present day. Examine how the emergence of the western world as a global dominant power was not something that should ever have been taken for granted. This podcast traces the development of western civilization starting in the ancient Near East, through Greece and Rome, past the collapse of the Western Roman Empire into the Dark Ages, and then follows European and, ultimately, American history as the western world moved into a dominant world position.

In the hushed circles of the heretical and the hopeful, there are whispered myths of a dark place. A place overgrown, forgotten, lost to the moss and the mists. A coppery putrid decay clings and coils like malodourous vines to the ancient stones and rotted wood of these ruins. Ruins long since abandoned save for those few barbaric enough to survive. Yet, in the oppressive baited silence of this nameless damnation, something stirs. Something hungry. Something that needs to feed. Welcome to Apocrypha. “Tales From Apocrypha” is a fantasy horror anthology podcast. The world of Apocrypha is full of all the creative themes I love: barbarity, tribalism, cannibalism, false prophets, daemons, monsters, dark powers calling out to be heard, and those who heed the calls. But that is just half of the Apocrypha project. “Tales From Apocrypha” is also running a Kickstarter campaign to launch the first wave of miniatures inspired by and based on the characters and creatures from the stories of Season One. A new dark fantasy miniature range that will expand as the podcast explores the stories from this ruined place. www.talesfromapocrypha.com
