Ando Valentine is a writer, musician, and creator and star of her audio drama podcast ‘Shadows of a Dark Past’, their talents are many and their skills even more so. I have known Ando for a while as first a fellow player in a game of dungeons and dragons and then as a friend.
I interviewed Ando on Monday the 10th of May over Zencastr. Ando’s experience in other mediums gave them a different perspective on things, she has worked in many different areas and so, unlike me, is able to compare telling a story in audio drama to another (as were a few of my guests). For Ando listening came first and acted as a “second iteration” of the story of SoaDP. We also talked about how the internet tends to force people into sub-communities and bubbles and how this would form the basis of our assumptions on our own community.
