Podcast Recommendation: The Westward Eye

We are still on our mid-season break, but we have a lil treat to you all today! The Westward Eye is a narrative audio drama following 3 young explorers as they leave behind everything they’ve ever known to gather testimonials in an unknown and isolated part of their continent. The creators are a fellow Queer and Trans lead team, with a devotion and dedication to providing an inclusive environment for POC, neurodivergent, and queer creators. So we are sure you will love them, and their podcast The Westward Eye, as much as we have.

A young couple and their child sit quietly around a lone campfire, praying they can make it out of a liminal Western wasteland before it consumes them entirely.
