A proposito di questo titolo

The Mechadova Engine is a queer steampunk audio drama.

The story follows Log, who has spent their entire life, as far as they can remember, alone inside a single library train carriage in the sky. Their only knowledge of the outside world is limited to books from a long time ago on earth.

Log has never thought to question their existence or the world outside, until one day their carriage stops. Here, they meet Tinker, a member of a resistance group, who turns their world upside down.

It's a story about meaningless structures, the power of community, and how knowledge is preserved and retold.

  • Presenting: DEADWOOD
    Feb 21 2026

    While our kickstarter is running, we figured we'd share some other shows we love!


    DEADWOOD is a horror anthology podcast centered around an eldritch god along with several other stories featuring immortal entities and ghosts, both literal and metaphorical. Some stories are more standalone than others, but all focus on themes of grief, betrayal, familial love, hope, identity, survival, queerness, mental illness, and what it means to be different when the world dies around you.


    It features excellent writing, and an incredible cast and crew, including Rhys Tirado, who plays Tinker in The Mechadova Engine. It is created by Saniyah Hill, a talented black and queer creator. If you're looking for some horror this February, give it a listen! Here is the full second episode: "Reopen".
