All that jazz

Hi folks,

We hope that you are all doing well. We’ve been busy this week getting everything ready for Rusty Quill Gaming & Giving. Now that it’s less than a month away, make sure the date is saved in your diaries: 4th-5th December, 5pm-5pm GMT. If you haven’t purchased tickets to our exclusive Gather space, we have just a few left: you can buy them on Eventbrite at this link.

Thank you so much for the kind words following our official public announcement that The Magnus Archives has reached the end of its regular content for the foreseeable future. In return, we’d like to thank you all again – our Patrons and everyone who tunes into episodes every week help us to continue to make the incredible shows that we do. If your days feel emptier now without your weekly instalment of Rusty Quill horror, we really recommend that you check out some of the RQ Network! If you like having a mystery to string together, why not try Cryptids, The Storage Papers or The Deca Tapes. If you like atmospheric horror anthologies, try out The Town Whispers, Old Gods of Appalachia, or I am in Eskew. If you’re looking for a long-running series to keep you entertained, there’s We’re Alive (with even more episodes in the works!). And finally, if you’re looking for something totally different, why not try The Milkman of St Gaff’s (the season one finale aired last Friday), The Silt Verses or How it Ends.

Over on Rusty Quill Gaming, the stress of the campaign is getting to the players, so look forward to a particularly giddy introduction this week. After last week’s episode, we’ve loved following your reactions – from gorgeous fanart to bingo cards. The stakes are growing steadily higher as we get closer to the finale, as the battle continues on Big Ben (or should we say the Elizabeth Tower?).

Meanwhile, on Enthusigasm we have another two fantastic episodes for you to enjoy. Firstly, on Thursday, join Helen, Francesca Renée Reid, Mabel Syrup and Nemo Martin to talk about cosplay and costuming, covering everything from theatre to burlesque and drag. Then, on Sunday join Helen, Beth Roars, Callum Dougherty, Cathy Rinella and Samuel DF Jones as they discuss jazz, from performing to listening!

Finally, please see our weekly transcript update.

Update 08/11/2021:

Today we received our 100th transcript back from the professional transcription company currently completing work on Enthusigasm and Rusty Quill Gaming. The consistent return of this transcripts has resulted in good progress towards completing the current transcriptions within the estimated timescales. While Enthusigasm continues to release new episodes with transcripts.
