Waiting For October - a queer supernatural audio drama by D.J. Sylvis and Monkeyman Productions. There is a world - one of thousands touching ours - known as October. One of the archetypes; one of the realities that is a source for our stories. It is not difficult to reach, if you know the way - you can experience their wildness for yourself, adventure there, and live, and love. But be wary - perhaps more than any other existence, here there be monsters …

A special thanks to our Patreon supporters who have helped make all of our stories happen! If you’d like to support our work or celebrate the folks who make it happen visit our Patreon at patreon.com(backslash)monkeymanproductions. Today our Crowdfundr shoutout is to Mary Anne Matos and Whitney Frisk. Thank you for your support! I thought after Karo’s journey today, it was a good time to suggest you listen to one of my favourite cryptid stories about watery adventures - Come On In The Water’s Fine, by friend of the show Shade Oyemakinwa. It’s an anthology of mermaid stories that is dreamy and engrossing and it all flows so beautifully in Shade’s amazing voice. Listen with your eyes closed. Getting back to October, next episode we’re going to hear a monologue from Yvonne, fresh off the mountain and her kaiju adventure! Until then, keep an eye out for interesting rock formations, never hand over your torch to a Raven, and don’t be a stranger!

Hey everyone. My name is Tina, I’m one of the producers here on Waiting for October, and I wanted to talk to you today about another show that we have been listening to and we love, and we wanted to share it with you. This one’s kind of interesting, because– I know that, like what we do in the audio drama community is –we share each other’s shows. Uh, “Every audio drama is like a gateway drug,” right? You listen to one and then you track your favorite voice actors down, or you hear an ad and you go listen to it. But I am so bad about– I will not listen to a show if I don’t know what it’s about. And sometimes, even if I do, my brain goes “Nope. Not today!” But for whatever reason, I decided to “yolo” this one, like– The show is called, Give Me Away, right? And I’d heard people talk about it, I knew people who had listened to it, had worked on the show. And I’m still like, “That’s nice, and that exists.” But eventually [pause] it became a little bit of –the show is written by Mac Rogers, right? And I had listened to The Message. I had listened to Life After. (We don’t need to talk about how long ago that was, because I didn’t realize it until I started recording this. And boy, does that make me a little sad.) But, um, anyway, like there was that faith in the creator, so I was like, “Hmm, okay, let’s try it. I’m still not real clear about what this is about, but we’re gonna try it.” And I did, and it was [an] immediate like, “Oh, good. It’s a married couple fighting, my favorite genre ever,” [pauses in divorcee] but I stuck with it, and I’m so glad that I did, because they’re fighting and it gets awkward, and it is immediately apparent that there is a Big Event that happens, something happened to do with aliens. And you’re like, “Wait what? I thought we were just having a domestic dispute?? And like, the Give Me Away part– that makes sense!!” [because marriage context] And no, no, it turns out that’s not what the show is about at all.

Enoch tells Karo his story as a life lesson. Transcript: https://monkeymanproductions.com/2025/03/wfo-s1-e6-5-transcript/ Waiting for October is written by D.J. Sylvis, with sound design by Caroline Mincks, and music by Trace Callahan. This episode featured David S. Dear as Enoch, Robin Regalado as Karo, and Caroline Mincks as Young'un. Our co-producers are D.J. Sylvis, Tina Case, and Sarah Müller. Our associate producers are Fool & Scholar Productions, Kathleen Lucas, Marcus Briggs, Martin Chodorek, Rebekah B. A special thanks to our Patreon supporters who have helped make all of our stories happen! If you’d like to support our work or celebrate the folks who make it happen visit our Patreon at patreon.com(backslash)monkeymanproductions Today our Crowdfundr shoutout is to Jenny Sylvis and Marissa Robertcop. Today, I’m recommending an audio drama from one of our cast members - Adam Qutaishat, who plays our werebear Karim - you’ll hear more from him soon! The show is called Vigil, and it’s an intense, engrossing superhero thriller that’s uniquely told and performed. Find it anywhere you listen, and let them know we sent you. Next episode here, it’s Karo’s turn for a solo quest, where they’re headed … do you know? Can you guess? Would it help if I told you the guest stars are our Raven, Cole Burkhardt playing one of the Gill folks, and … no, I’ll hold back that last one, that gives it all away! For now, keep an eye on the treetops when you’re out at night, praise the lord and pass the taters!
