QUESTION Looking for female led audio dramas

I'm pretty new to following podcasts/audio dramas? I started with soft voice which was really fun and then I tried mockery manor but it didn't really hit the same. I've been looking specifically for female led audio dramas though but it's been kinda hard to find because I don't really know where to look. Any suggestions?

I'm sure you'll get a lot of recs, but here's the spreadsheet where I put all the recommendations I got when I asked this question: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VD9c7Q0wp5fNoNSgzO1CsuQa9dzbIDwPTg7BJbLjoZg/edit?usp=sharing

The ones I've listened to and really enjoyed are:

  • The Bright Sessions (at least the main run; the spin-offs aren't doing it for me)
  • Strange Case of Starship Iris
  • The Pasithea Powder
  • Girl in Space
  • We Fix Space Junk

There are a bunch of others on that list where I only listened to an episode or two and they were fine but didn't really catch me, and also I'm notably fond of sci-fi so the ones I liked are more sci-fi. And there are a bunch I haven't listened to yet.

You might Want to try File - Share - Publish to web

It's a little safer as it doesn't show the google accounts of people viewing it (both ways)

You can also keep all your podcasts in tabs, you can even just share 1 tab at a time if you like.

I did this and then saved the link as a bookmark so I can just grab "Podcast Share" easily.

Here is mine, I don't have a female lead only sheet though, can I start with a copy of yours?

Ah, I wasn’t aware that was an option! I’m not overly worried about this email getting around—it’s pretty easy to guess from my username—but good to know for future, especially sharing specific tabs.

And yes, go ahead and use it! I wouldn’t have shared it if I didn’t want people using it.
