Hey folks! Writer/creator Jess here, we're still on hiatus before our third and final season, and fear not, Patreon patrons, we are not charging you for this non-Starship Iris content, but in the meantime, we're dropping the first episode of Where the Stars Fell, a supernatural fantasy fiction podcast where the biggest twist is only the beginning, and what doesn’t kill you is just another mystery. In a mysterious Oregon town, the antichrist and her guardian angel are forced to work together to stop the religious rapture— but they don’t know any of that yet. It's a mystery that encourages fans to theorize and engage with it, and celebrates when they predict the revelations. It features themes of disability, identity, and agency from a diverse team of creators. If you’re a fan of Gravity Falls, Good Omens, or Gideon the Ninth, check out Where the Stars Fell. You can find and listen to Where the Stars Fell anywhere you listen to podcasts. Our thanks to Where the Stars Fell for letting us drop this episode in our feed. Learn more about your ad choices.
