The award winning short fiction podcast on village life - In no particular order. Three Corners is just your average small town. But like all small towns, scratch the surface, and you’ll be surprised at what you find underneath. In that sense Three Corners is really no different to any other small town I know, except perhaps, for some of the characters you might meet.

  1. The Old Bat

    6D AGO

    The Old Bat

    The Old Bat was a crack shot. There had been a murder of crows cawing up the back of the paddock for a few days now. The new shoots of grass had drawn the wildlife to the edge of the road, where the cars and trucks had finished them off. Great food for the crows though. Voiced by Victoria, produced by Postie, photo by Manny Mederos.

    Steve the Chook

    An ice-cream container, filled to the brim with water had been gingerly and very carefully carried across from the tap to the new pen. Grubby hands had eagerly spread the chook pellets to help them feel at home, the chickens settled in to stay and so, therefore, they needed names...

    Garden Gnomes

    When the large semi-trailer tried to negotiate the bend at three corners, rather unsuccessfully after the work Christmas party, the entire town got a present that most would have preferred never to have received. Produced by Postie, photo by Stefan.

    Fearless

    Losing her house wasn’t the end of the world, she tried reminding herself. It was a silly phrase. Losing. She hadn’t lost it at all, it was right there where the developer would be bulldozing it into a thousand tiny matchsticks. Produced by Postie, photo by Nate Biddle (@nateb.visuals)

  6. The Keeper of Lost and Found Things

    The Keeper of Lost and Found Things

    The Keeper of Lost and Found Things held secrets and heartbreaks. Poems and journals. There were collections of dummies, books lost in the rain, their pages dry but forever resting in waves of words. School jumpers, and the occasional esky.

    A Beautiful Blue

    He was from the generation where you didn’t speak of loss, or grief. He was from a bygone era, and some days he felt the distance more than others. His friends are the same. A clap on the shoulder is the only acknowledgement he needs, just to keep going. Produced by Postie. Photo by Matej at Pexels.

    The Long Weekend

    On the day before a long weekend, the last day of school before the holidays, the blues skies held the promise of fevered anticipation. You see, there was a plan afoot. There was someone in the village who had been waiting, and watching for years. Produced by Postie, voiced by Jacq and Greg. Photo by Elijah O'Donnell
