| 0:00.0 | Hello everyone and welcome back. We are very excited to present to you our chapter premiere, |
| 0:06.0 | but first I just want to tell you about some of the sponsors who make our show possible. |
| 0:10.0 | Our featured sponsor this chapter is Audio Fiction 101. |
| 0:14.0 | Audio Fiction 101 is an online course that teaches you everything you need to think about when making an audio drama, |
| 0:20.0 | and then walks you through rigorous exercises to think about when making an audio drama, and then walks |

| 0:35.8 | writing process can look like and develop |

| 0:48.6 | by the team that produced Wolf 359 and Time Bombs, pulling from their experience, both bringing |
| 0:53.8 | audio fiction to life and teaching |
| 0:55.9 | at the university level. |
| 0:57.2 | If you are not familiar with Wolf 359 or Time Bombs, you've probably at least heard me gushing |
| 1:02.1 | about those shows at some point. |
| 1:03.8 | These folks are experts who I really, really look up to, and they're really cool people |
| 1:08.4 | too. |
| 1:08.6 | So if you are thinking of making an audio drama or any |
| 1:11.4 | kind of audio fiction of your own, I am leaving you in truly excellent hands by sending you |
| 1:16.5 | their way. Needs-based scholarships are available to qualifying applicants, and all Once |
| 1:21.6 | and Future Nerd listeners can get a $15 discount by using the code T-O-A-F-N. |
