Above: The estate.


Below: Caves, and a thousand stories.... Secret passages and doors, a lake, a garden even - according to some.

Tonight: A final underground rave.

Tomorrow: The demolition of the estate, shutting off the caves forever.

Tommy, Rosa, Finn, Jamal and Haroona make their way to the party of their lives in the world beneath - only to find themselves going deeper than they ever expected.

    We're delighted to share on our feed a pilot episode from another of our favourite podcasts: Folxlore.


    Folxlore tells the stories of queer people living literally and figuratively between two worlds.


    In one sense, we try to live normal lives while the world tells us we are not normal.


    In another sense, our normal lives are interrupted by a very not-normal rift opening up between our world and another plane of existence filled with nightmarish horrors.


    This pilot series deals with themes of first romance, hate crime related trauma, and queer parenthood.


    Folxlore is rooted in everyday Glasgow, where monsters are always on the edge of your periphery.


    A collaboration between In The Works and Tin Can Audio.
