For the first time in Ink to Film history Luke & James tackle another podcast—an audio drama—and its impressive adaptation! In episode 223, they tackle the first half of season 1 of both show and pod. Luke rants about Netflix’s strategic error and foolish cancellation of the show, and how they could have better set Archive 81 up for success. Plus, what made the audio drama take off, the story behind the creators Daniel Powell and Marc Sollinger, Mamoudou Athie and Dina Shihabi’s standout performances, and the power of letting the supernatural stay unexplained.
Podcast episodes covered: S1: eps 1-5. Show episodes covered: S1: eps 1-4
