Ray Porter
Delivering the Goddamn Mail
Ray Porter joins Edward Savio for a funny, candid conversation about storytelling, performance, and a voice listeners already know from some of the biggest audiobooks in the genre—including Project Hail Mary, the Bobiverse series, and Savio’s own League of Auld. Newly inducted into the Audible Narrator Hall of Fame, Porter talks about what makes narration work, why the job is to serve the story, and how acting, writing, and audiobook performance all depend on the same thing: getting your ego out of the way. It’s a smart, human episode about craft, voice, and the strange intimacy of being the one guiding the listener through the dark.

Max Barry
Making the Ridiculous Feel Real
Max Barry joins Edward Savio to talk satire, persuasion, and why even the most ridiculous ideas have to feel real. From Lexicon to Jennifer Government to The 22 Murders of Madison May, which sets a serial killer loose across the multiverse with reality-bending consequences, they get into dialogue, power, and the problem of writing satire in a world that keeps outpacing it. Funny, sharp, and a little unsettling, it’s a look at how the absurd starts to feel uncomfortably real.
