Porcupine Productions on the Air

Welcome to Porcupine Productions:

Step into a different kind of time machine. At Porcupine Productions, we mix the charm of classic radio with brand-new audio mischief:

“The Docent” – Every other week, meet a new “world’s worst guide” as they bungle, mislead, and berate their way through some of history’s most curious locations.

“Detective Steve” – Once a month, follow a grumpy Chihuahua-Corgi detective through noir-soaked mysteries, sass, and Milk-Bone-fueled investigations.

Vintage Radio Re-Runs – On off weeks, enjoy hand-picked episodes from the golden age of radio (1930s–50s): ghost stories, thrillers, and forgotten gems—all out of copyright, all remastered.

New audio adventures every week—some classic, some ridiculous, all with a nod to the golden age of storytelling.
