Cornucopia Radio Podcast 75 - The Gilded Imagination

Journey into your own imagination as the very headphones you listen to this story on will make a direct physical connection to your limbic system. Allowing one of our highly trained visualization therapists to talk to you directly and help you imagine the story you have wanted to tell for so long. Even though you feel you have lost your creativity and this is no longer a tale you have within you. The Gilded Imagination is the final production to be produced by Peter Beeston and Cornucopia Radio before he moves onto other projects. However all the work created over the past 17 years will remain available to listen to via our website and the different podcast feeds and nothing will be removed in the future. This brand new production which mixes audio asmr roleplay and action soundscapes is a personal journey that is meant to be a conclusion for Cornucopia Radio. Its all about the mindset of a person who creates stories like this. Suggesting that all these productions might come from another reality beyond ours. Starring Hannah Lloyd and Pip Mason and Andrew Biss.

The Killer Mine - Hammond Innes - Remake of 'Escape' OTR

Jim Price has been blackmailed by a criminal gang and forced to work deep underground, a half mile from shore and protected by only 20 feet of rock that he’ll soon be drilling and blasting. All he can do is pray to God that it doesn't cave in until he’s long on his way out. But he’s not alone down here... ‘The Killer Mine’ is based on the novel of the same name by Hammond Innes. It was originally adapted into an episode of the 1951 CBS OTR radio series ‘Escape’ (the story from the novel heavily condensed to fit into the 30 minute format). It has been slightly re-written, edited and directed for 2023 by Peter Beeston. It has been remade for this years ‘Sonic Society’ summerstock festival in which modern audio-fiction companies take on the challenge of remaking classic ‘Old Time Radio’ shows. The story is about Jim Pryce, a deserter from the British army who finds himself back in England working alongside criminals in an old abandoned tin mine. But they don’t want to mine any of this tin; instead they want to use the mine to illegally important liquor by exploding the main tunnel into the sea and flooding the mine. Jim will have to fight for his life and escape the raging sea and a crazy old man if he’s to make it back to the surface and live another day.

Hellstream

Humanity is under attack. Monsters born from the darkest depths, crawl the wretched streets day and night, killing and devouring all they find. The few people that survive, do so by living deep underground. But there is hope. There is entertainment. Because every night a select band of heroes around the world ride the great elevators to the surface. To battle the horde. To defeat the demons. Broadcasting live onto millions of bunker monitors across the planet. This is... The Hellstream!! Warning: This production includes intense scenes of violence. This work has been created in partnership with www.11thhouraudio.com We all hope you really enjoyed this production; it was so much fun to make. We were influenced by trashy horror anime, Paul Verhoeven films and 'first person shooters' in putting this all together. We’d also love to hear from you if you enjoyed it, or want to get involved in future audiodrama productions with us.
