Information about ARTC's various podcasts.
ARTC's Podcast
Run: August 2006-August 2016
This show was ARTC's first podcast and featured recordings of our live performances almost exclusively. In later years the format experimented with some studio work, running recordings of different performances of the same script, and some interviews in preparation for the transition to the Centauri Express Audio Magazine.
Centauri Express Audio Magazine
Run: August 2016-2018
This show is a reimagining of two different concepts. The Centauri Express was first developed by William Brown and was originally distributed on cassette. Realizing the difficulty of maintaining a regular release schedule and the accompanying distribution challenges, the Centauri Express eventually gave way to ARTC's current production and distribution model that releases titles as they are completed.
The current incarnation of the Centauri Express will get in line with modern dramatic audio podcasting conventions, including serialized content, and will also feature assorted other content such as panel discussions, interviews, convention reports, musical guests, and anything else that listeners may find interesting.
Placed on hiatus in 2018 due to contractual obligations. The podcast could potentially resume in 2023 based on how negotiations go.
