The Penumbra PodcastHome of Thirst, Juno Steel, and the Second Citadel Author: Harley Takagi Kaner and Kevin Vibert
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 theyve fallen in love with. Or you might tune into the not-too-distant future of Thirst, a future America somehow even worse than the present, where four couples must survive a dangerous reality TV competition designed by a sadistic host and a cheerfully violent Algorithm. These audio dramas and more await you in the Penumbra, dear traveler. We hope you enjoy your stay.
