Hey everyone!

We are so happy to announce that THE ONCE AND FUTURE NERD will be at PodCon this coming weekend, Jan. 19-20 in Seattle! Come say hi to co-creators Zach Glass and Christian Kelley-Madera and cast member Greg Schulz (Yllowyyn). We’ll be sharing a booth with our friends at Left Trigger Right Trigger, and we’ll have some limited edition stuff to give away that’s being made just for the Con.

Casting Call!

UPDATE: These roles have been cast. Thanks to everyone who submitted or helped share the casting call!

Award-winning scripted Fantasy Adventure podcast THE ONCE AND FUTURE NERD is looking to cast two Indigenous voice actors for its upcoming chapter and beyond.

CHARACTER A is a 16yo woman, strong-willed and independent bordering on arrogant, but very smart with a knack for learning and technology. (Actors must be 18+ to audition.)

CHARACTER B is a woman in her late 50’s, dependable pillar of her community, occasionally irreverent but cares deeply about raising the next generation of leaders. (Actors 50+ preferred but all ages will be considered.)

For both roles, Great Plains/Canadian Prairies identities are preferred but actors of any Indigenous identity will be considered. You must either be able to come record with us in NYC OR have a home recording setup of your own. Total time commitment for this chapter will a few (<5) hours of recording.

If you think this is for you, please email iordic.princes at gmail dot com with interest or inquiries, subject line “Chapter 5 Casting.”

If this isn’t for you personally, please help us spread the word!
