‘A Scottish Podcast’ is a serialised modern audio drama. It chronicles the story of Lee, a washed up former radio DJ who launches a paranormal investigation podcast. Lee wants to see his show The Terror Files mentioned up there alongside podcasts like The Black Tapes, Limetown, and The Message. And he’ll stop at nothing to achieve it. Aided by his jaded musician pal Dougie, the pair travel the length and breadth of the country in search of Medieval Demon Kings and Lovecraftian Gods of the Sea. So why not join them on this unique tour of the ancient and mystical lands of Scotland? You’ll walk through the long-forgotten catacombs under Edinburgh. Sail out to the lonely and abandoned island of St.Caillic. Visit dingy pubs, run-down industrial estates, and obscure non-league football grounds. The show contains strong language, “adult situations” (whatever that means), and isn’t for the easily offended.

We grew up in Antigonish, Nova Scotia…but one side of my family history started across the pond in Scotland.The story started in 1823, with a high seas voyage from Scotland to Nova Scotia and a birth on a ship. This led my descendants to a homestead on a golden grove farm, near the famous Margaree river. In this podcast, we take a look at the series of events that built my family history.
