    The Radio Riel Players Present Tales from New Babbage: The Novel of the White Powder

    "The Radio Riel Players Present" is Radio Riel's independent radio production of classic stories, poems and plays, all performed by The Radio Riel Players from around the world. "Tales from New Babbage" are darker stories brought to you by the residents of the Steampunk City-State of New Babbage. As they say in New Babbage, what could possibly go wrong? What is in that white powder my brother is taking? Junie Ginsburg tells a tale that HP Lovecraft said "approaches the absolute culmination of loathsome fright.” Arthur Machen was born in Wales and became enamored with mysticism and the occult at an early age. The Novel of the White Powder was part of The Three Impostors, a novel composed of a number of interwoven tales, in 1895. The novel and the stories within it were eventually to be regarded as among Machen's best works. However, following the indecency scandal surrounding Oscar Wilde later that year, Machen's association with works of decadent horror made it difficult for him to find a publisher for new works until later in his career. Publisher John Lane, wary of the atmosphere, asked Machen to censor his manuscript. Barring the omission of one word, Machen refused to comply. First Publication:1895 Reader: Miss Junie Ginsburg Intro: Mr Announcer & MacKnight Culdesac Outro: Miss Penny Dreadful Music: Earth Prelude, Decline, Ghostcalypse 3, Martian Cowboy, The Dread, Bent and Broken, and Arcane, by Kevin Macleod Production: Mosseveno Tenk Runtime: 47:55 You can listen to "The Radio Riel Players Present" via any of the following methods: Direct link to the show on Archive.org, where you can listen to it as a stream or download the audio file directly Subscribe on iTunes Subscribe using our RSS feed

    The Radio Riel Players Present: Tales from New Babbage, Sea Stories

    The Radio Riel Players Present is Radio Riel's independent radio production of classic stories, poems and plays, all performed by The Radio Riel Players from around the world. Tales from New Babbage are darker stories brought to you by the residents of the Steampunk City-State of New Babbage. As they say in New Babbage, what could possibly go wrong? Every sailor knows that the best souvenir one brings back from a foreign port is a good sea story. Tonight's stories are just that - sea stories. The Basha's Gorilla, by William Patterson White (1910). Read by Byron Wexhome and Rowan Derryth. White was best known for writing cowboy adventure stories in the early 20th century. Voyage Eastward, from the Surprising Adventures of Baron Munchausen, 1895 edition, by Rudolph Erich Raspe. Read by Emperor Ezra Crumb II. The tales of Baron Munchausen were first translated into English in 1785 from an anonymous collection in German. Baron Munchausen was an actual 18th century nobleman and his stories should be assumed to be absolutely reliable and true, despite the fact that many are based on folktales that were circulating well before his birth. Davey Jones's Gift, by John Masefield, read by Victor1st Mornington. First published in Country Life, November 11, 1905. Masefield's aunt thought little of her nephew's addiction to reading, so she sent him off to train for a life at sea to cure him of it. He became a Poet Laureate and one of the greatest nautical storytellers of all time.

    The Radio Riel Players Present: Tales from New Babbage, The Brownie of the Black Haggs by James Hogg

    "The Radio Riel Players Present" is Radio Riel's independent radio production of classic stories, poems and plays, all performed by The Radio Riel Players from around the world. "Tales from New Babbage" are darker stories brought to you by the residents of the Steampunk City-State of New Babbage. As they say in New Babbage, what could possibly go wrong? From Wikipedia: James Hogg wrote in both English and Scots. He had little formal education, and became a shepherd, living in grinding poverty, hence his nickname, 'The Ettrick Shepherd'. His employer, James Laidlaw of Blackhouse in the Yarrow valley, seeing how hard he was working to improve himself, offered to help by making books available. Hogg used these to essentially teach himself to read and write (something he had achieved by the age of 14). In 1796 Robert Burns died, and Hogg, who had only just come to hear of him, was devastated by the loss. He struggled to produce poetry of his own, and Laidlaw introduced him to Sir Walter Scott, who asked him to help with a publication entitled The Minstrelsy of the Scottish Border.
