• Good For The Soul
    Nov 24 2022
    They say confession is good for the soul, but it's easier said than done. Season 5, Episode 17 Martin has a problem to put it mildly, rather than dealing with it he tries avoidance. Everywhere he turns and every beer he drinks he can't shake the voice. The voice is his conscience, that moral barometer who tries to compel him to come clean. Special performance by Jessica Berson from Echoes in-between podcast Brent Stark from the Most Precious Commodity podcast. Leo Allen from Voluntary Input who played the news reporter. And my sweet wife Valrica. Special thanks to the lady with the golden voice, Shawntay from Ctamarketing.biz Earthling Studio. Thinking about podcasting but you dread the thought of audio editing?

    As you may know last week's episode, Queens Curse, was plagiarized by another creator. I called him out on Twitter and that's when things turned ugly. Season 5, Episode 16 (Bonus) He also said that I'm not woke enough and black enough because I don't tackle black issues. This is absurd. My show is about bringing every nerd together regardless of their nationality. This is not a political show, sometimes it makes sport of politics but I'm not picking sides. As for wokness, he may have a point, my show is not woke. I don't apologize for this and I'm not going to change the show to be more culturally relevant.

    For over a thousand years he stood as a silent observer watching the chaos and the beauty of a fallen world. Season 5, episode 15 In the past couple of years many statues and monuments in the United States have been demolished by angry mobs. They say the values and beliefs of these men carved in stone runs counter to today's morals. Queens Curse is a story of a man frozen in glass. His origins are unknown, but his message is profound.

  • My Wife Doesn’t Listen To My Podcast

    You'll think loyalty begins at home. The person you share your bed with will have your back. Buckle up buttercup your in for a twist.  Season 5, Episode 14 (Bonus) Recently I've been receiving  positive and negative feedback about my show. Positive feedback is always welcome but the negative feedback is like a dagger in the neck.  At least my show is gaining an audience and the larger the audience the more negative vibes. Every movie star and famous authors goes through a battlefield of hurtful words and misguided comments. To become a person of notice you have to develop titanium skin. You will be attacked from all sides so the titanium is crucial.  Last week's micro episode entitled, Only One Listener, is a good example. I've received angry messages from the island nation of Evaugne. They had an issue with an older episode called Messenger Pigeon, about a potential  suicide bomber. I thank the people of Evaugne who took the time to send me feedback. You can do the same on Apple Podcast by leaving a rating and review. You can also DM me on Twitter @poeticearthling Special performance by Tiffany C Lewis please follow her podcast, Beta Reader Bits. Also check out my YouTube channel,  YouTube.com/@Welcometoearthstories it's not high budget and I don't have A-list actors and supermodel appearances. Rather it's your truly  staring awkwardly at the camera. Since your a fan of this show you can give back at buymeacoffee.com/earthstories  when you arrive click on post to hear free exclusive episodes. New episode, Queens Curse, is arriving this thursday.

    An alleged faith healer emerges from the center of the Earth, a Homeland security agent is assigned to track him down. Is he a threat, a lunatic or an answered prayer? Season 5, Episode 13 I've always been fascinated with the idea of intelligent lifeforms living in the centre of the Earth. No wonder why I'm a weirdo. The thought of earthlings living under our feet for thousands of years is provocative, at least for me it is. You probably didn't think of it until now and why should you, life on the surface is already stressful. Living with "surface dwellers" could feel unbearable. Special performance by Karin from Chaika Podcast Timothy Kimo Brien from Create Art Podcast, and my Son Elijah.

    Many of us live as caterpillars when we could become butterflies Season 5, Micro Episode (Ep 12) When you're middle class and live in a safe neighborhood it's easy to shield yourself.  The struggles of living paycheck to paycheck, or putting up with the food price hike doesn't compare to living out in the street or at a homeless shelter. The girl in this story detached herself from her butterfly wings and decided to sell her soul. It's easy to label and disregard these people without acknowledging their humanity. Every human being is sacred, however sinful practices creeps in and ruins the work of art.  To listen to these micro episodes please visit buymeacoffee.com/earthstories and click on Posts. These are free, there's no pay wall. You can also give back to the show. Next full-length episode is Core Dweller, arriving this Thursday on Welcometoearthstories.com Reach out to me on Twitter @poeticearthling And subscribe to my YouTube channel Youtube.com/@welcometoearthstories  Music is licensed under Epidemic Sound

  • Voice In Your Ear
    Nov 3 2022
    Cindy's favourite podcaster is warning her of danger, will she listen to his voice before it's too late? Season 5, Episode 11 They say podcasting is the most intimate form of media because it feels like the host is speaking directly to you. Radio and Television is designed for a group experience hence the name broadcast. Podcasts are designed for an individual experience. When you listen to a podcast you're alone with your headphones. That's why I enjoy listening to podcasts, especially those that tug at my heart and intellect. Special performance by Author Tiffany C Lewis from Beta Reader Bits podcast Alex from Time For Your Hobby played the newscaster. Special thanks to the lady with the golden voice, Shawntay from Ctamarketing.biz who played Jasmine.

  • Only One Listener (Bonus episode)
    Oct 31 2022
    An unusual email leads me halfway around the world to a small village in the remote country of Evaugne risking my life for my only listener.  Season 5, Episode 10 I'm kind of obsessive when it comes to listener feedback and meeting the needs of my diehard fans. Obsessive maybe an overstatement but I'm dedicated to you. When I heard I only had one listener in the island nation of Evaugne I was perplexed and humiliated. Only one listener? This listener kept sending emails and eventually an airline ticket. Should I stay in Canada or travel around the globe for my loyal fan? Special thanks to Leo Allen from Voluntary Input for inviting me on his show. Thank you to Emily Inkpen from the Dex Legacy Series, for allowing me to play a king in their bonus episode.
