    SEASON 1 TRAILER

    Call of The Wander (Trailer)

    You start with your own breathing. Match the rhythm of the breeze that carves the canopy, the birds and bugs chirping in set intervals, feel the subtle pulse rising up from the ground beneath you. To wander is to dance with the forest; but the forest isn’t just the partner, it is the music, it is the style, it is the rhythm, it is the ancient steps and movements that have only been passed down from one dancer to another. She teaches you to dance the dance she invented, to the music she’s singing, in a tonal system she thought up one night as it pleased her. You breathe, and you listen, and you wait for your place, your first step, the call to wander. The Wanderer is an original folk tale audio fiction from T.H. Ponders. A member of Fable and Folly Network. Produced by Jordan Stillman. Show Art by V Silverman. Coming May 3, 2021.

    The Wanderer (Trailer)

    I think you should know something before we continue. I am not the hero of this story. In fact this story doesn’t have a hero. I'm not going to save anyone here, least of all myself. But I’ve made a deal with the forest. I've agreed to wander; to wander as long as I can, to wander as long as the forest wishes. I don't completely understand what she wants with me, but I wander because it's the only way I have to keep the person I love most safe. I wander because it’s the only way I’ll get him back. It's the least I can do. It’s the only thing I can do. The Wanderer is an original folk tale audio fiction from T.H. Ponders. A member of Fable and Folly Network. Produced by Jordan Stillman.
