Stories Across Borders
Stories Across Borders is Daniel’s fiction-focused podcast where he, along with his various guests, discusses stories told across a wide range of different mediums. The podcast follows a cyclical format where each set of four episodes follows a theme.
The first episode will always be a more general discussion based on the theme. The next two will focus on specific examples of that theme. The final episode in a cycle features a reading of a story - usually one written by Daniel himself for the episode - and follow-up discussion.
Stories Across Borders is also available on Spotify and YouTube.
Episode Three: 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim
This episode is for the weebs. In the third episode focused on disaster stories, Daniel and Jon take a look at Vanillaware’s 2019 video game, 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim and how mixing disaster stories with other genres and exploring different methods of telling a story can elevate a work beyond a mash-up of different homages and references.
Episode Two: Don’t Look Up
In the second episode of the first cycle, the discussion on disaster stories continues. This time, Daniel and his returning guest, Jon Coenan, are putting a twist on things. Episode Two is focused on Adam McKay’s satirical disaster movie, Don’t Look Up (2021).
Episode One: Disasters
Stories Across Borders kicks off with a bang. The first cycle begins with “disasters” as its theme. Daniel Radford and guest, Jon Coenan, discuss just what makes a good disaster story and why these tales are so compelling.
