Happy Sunday! I’m here with some recs today. Specifically, I’m sharing six Podfic recs, as a sneaky way to promo Caught on Tape: A Carry On Podfest. We are super excited to be running this fest for the first time, and in order to get you all jazzed for it, I’d like to highlight some amazing podfics that already exist in our fandom 🎉

Welcome to My Life, 55 min, Rated T, fic by @sillyunicorn and podficced by @captain-aralias

I was already obsessed with this fic when it was just a kernel of an idea based on this art by @letraspal where Baz has wings and Simon dresses in florals. The author took this Watford era role reversal to heart and really created a compelling story with a very angsty and Baz. Aralias did a fantastic job with Baz’s characterization and I found myself sucked into this story anew hearing it read aloud. (Aralias also has a number of great podfics. All are worth a listen)

15-Across, 43 min, Rated T, fic by @ninemagicks and podficced by @cottagepodfics

This Normal AU meet cute has Simonn wondering about the cute man he always sits next to on his morning train commute who does crosswords every morning. The utterly sweet vibe comes shining through in the reader’s performance, and has lost of fun touches with sound effects and voice modifications (to distinguish inner thoughts, text messages, etc) that just really make the experience such a fun listen.

I Meant it, You’ll See, 48 min, Rated T, fic by @otherworldsivelivedin and podficced by @petrodobreva

A kiss between friends in this Normal AU has Simon having sudden realizations that cause him to chase Baz down at a train station the next day. Great pining and excellent miscommunication that comes through in spades in the readers performance. Amazing music and sound effects add the perfect touch to really immerse you in this story.

Wasabi, 31 min, Rated E, written and read by xivz

The one where Simon is a cam boy and Baz has zero chill. Also, they were roommates. Man, this story is so hot and the way xivz reads this makes it infinitely hotter. They put on their sexy voice and gives us every delicious moan, groan and sigh. You’ll be fanning yourself and wiping your brow by the end!

A Case of Identity, 20-30 min, Rated T, fic by @ninemagicks and @sourcherrymagiks and podficced by @youarenevertooold

Simon finds an anonymous love letter written to him and hidden in a library book. So he responds, leading to a very funny and cute back and forth while he tries to figure out who it is. This reader has such lovely voices and characterizations for both Simon and Baz and just hits every joke perfectly. Seriously, you’ll be cackling and awwing the whole way through.

Everything’s Coming Up Roses, 65 min, Rated T, fic by @annabellelux and podficced by RattleandHum

An excellent Watford era Hanahaki fic, full of the angstiest love sick Baz. (The Hanahaki fics in this fandom are so good.) The reader does an excellent posh Baz and brings so much emotion to the table. And with 3 chapters you can listen in intervals easily without losing your place. I think this was my first Podfic in the fandom (and ever!) and I just remember being in awe that such a wonderful thing existed.

There are 47 podfics tagged in the CO fandom on AO3. Go give them a peek and get yourself excited about hearing more when the Podfest drops some new gems Oct 29-Nov 11th. Click on the link above to follow the blog for updates. 🎙️💕

Happy Birthday Apricot! 🥳🎈🎂

Dear @ivelovedhimthroughworse, I hope you have a wonderful day today, it's a joy to have you in my life!

To celebrate, I made you this podfic of your wonderful COTTA fic from last year, which was inspired by your wonderful COTTA art from last year.

[Podfic] A Subtle Bravery on AO3

My historical contribution is the music I chose for the intro/outro, which is Beethoven's String Quartet No. 5 in A Major, Op. 18 No. 5: IV. Allegro as performed by the Quatuor Capet. The recording is from 1928, but I chose this because this quartet included former members of the Geloso Quartet, and Albert Geloso used to play at the Crystal Palace Saturday Concerts in London, which I could imagine Baz attending in this AU.

Oh, hello. Wednesday, huh? Thanks for the tag @artsyunderstudy !!

SO this week I have been doing MANY THINGS including many fannish things. Including things in several fandoms. Me earlier this year: I truly cannot handle having more than one thing on the go. Me now: Yes, maybe I do have six active writing projects in three different fandoms as well as four podfics on the go. WHAT OF IT!?

I've finished recording all of my podfics, and I'm editing them now and... well, it's hard. One is edited, one is 1/8th edited, and the other two are freefloating audio. But, uh, yeah, here's some audio. Because. I... well, you'll get it.

Yes, I titled this file TENDER because I just, it's... yeah. I'm not totally sure whether I'm allowed to say who/what I'm podficcing... (@caught-on-tape-fest can you advise?) But, anyway, probably someone will get it based on that snippet.

Below the cut: snippets of writing and tags!

Here, also, is a little, silly segment of my OMGCP fic, the Holsom Timeloop, featuring an OC who, let me just say, I gave excellent breasts, and zero flaws. I will accept no critiques:

He bumps into someone as he turns, attempts to keep anyone from falling with one hand in the steadying region of what should be a shoulder but turns out to be a truly exceptional handful of cleavage. "Shit, I'm so sorry," he says, taking a half-step back and looking at the woman he just groped. There's a lovely flush on her olive cheeks, and her hair is a cloud of beautiful, wild curls. Marjorie. She's in his o-chem class and she's cute. She's been cute all semester. And smart. And funny. Though her typical cozy-sweater-and-jeans look in class does not betray how truly magnificent her tits are. They're propped up by some kind of bra magic in defiance of gravity, and barely contained by the blue-green fabric of her shirt. She laughs. "You're forgiven. Though by the transitive property, you definitely owe me a drink."

I also wrote another couple hundred words on my @carryon-reverse-bang beach fic, of which these are some:

The moon is rising and the tide is coming in. "D'you know," he says. "Even if there were no moon, we'd still have tides?" I hum. I look over at him. His silhouette is blurred by the rays of the setting sun, lighting him up from behind like an unearthly being.

[Podfic] The Sound of Silence

A Carry On podfic by @captain-aralias for the @caught-on-tape-fest

“But that spring, I actually did try and take Snow down.” Fifth year. Baz wins – and deals with the consequences.

Rated T / 49 mins / 10,192 words

————————————————————————

Podfic #2 for the Caught On Tape Carry On Podfest! This is The Sound of Silence by aralias! This one's also for Teen and Up Audiences, with Ch1 around 28 mins and Ch2 around 21 mins! This fic is another one of my old favorites, and it was so much fun editing it all up!

Once again I need to seriously thank the mods for this fest! They've all been SO supportive and kind and made me feel so much closer to a fandom I've cherished so much for the past two years but was always too scared to be more than a lurker in! I was so worried about learning to make podfics and exposing my voice to internet strangers, and yet the reception I got for my first podfic was completely mind-blowing and heart-melting, and I'm so grateful to all the amazing people in this fandom! This would not have been possible without all of them, but the mods super duper especially!!

I've got one last fic on the way that I'm gonna have to really go crunch time on, but for now enjoy listening to The Sound of Silence by aralias!

WONDERFUL podfic of A Town Called Stagnation from @aquaticflames

If you enjoy Young Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon, if you like a reader who feels audiobook worthy, and if you just like small town bullshit, please do stop by and take a listen to their amazing podfic:

Thank you so much, Aqua!!

#obi-wan kenobi #qui-gon jinn #fic #rec #podfic #i listened to the whole thing nonstop and was confronted by my apparent need for obi-wan to be carried around #like a sack of potatoes #i will endeavor in future to make him climb things more than be picked up and tossed around

[Podfic] This Is What We'll Tell Them

written by @mostlymaudlin, podficced by me for @caught-on-tape-fest

Penny says that deep blue hyacinths like these typically symbolize sorrow and grief. Simon picks up the bouquet anyway, because they’re beautiful, and because Baz will like them. Today, hyacinths symbolize excitement. Certainty. Proper optimism. - Simon takes Baz on a date.

[Podfic] Flowers, Cake, and Filthy DMs

(Oh my, what's this? A podfic? Just making it in under the deadline? Must be Jo's.)

Baz’s excitement over his favourite Instagram florist coming to his restaurant to create a holiday window display is over shadowed by that fact that he stupidly sent him a very dirty DM the night before. Disaster panic ensues.

Written by @you-remind-me-of-the-babe // Read by @iamamythologicalcreature // for the @caught-on-tape-fest 2023

Rated T // about 11 minutes

Not just my first podfic, but also my first time posting on AO3. (I'm not nervous. Who's nervous? Not me.) Take a listen!

Gratitude gushing under the cut!

Thanks so much to @you-remind-me-of-the-babe for opening this lovely little story up for podficcing! Thanks also to @cutestkilla for being relentlessly supportive during this whole, ah, let's say process.

And of course, the modding side of things - so much gratitude for organizing this podfic fest! The explosion of podfics that I've seen from this fest is just... well, it's awesome. I've been binging fanfic since posting started for this fest - something I would never be able to do, otherwise. Setting up this fest was inspired, and I also greatly appreciate the work and dedication that went into making it all come together.

Podfics are such an amazing contribution to the fandom, and I'm really glad I was able to participate at least a little. I hope everyone (including myself) continues to create podfics - not just for those who need the assistance reading, but for everyone who enjoys the listening experience!

Podfic: Crisp and Sweet

Five years after the events of AWTWB, Simon and Baz return to North America with one mission: to peep some leaves.

22 min, T. Listen on AO3

---------

Thank you @mostlymaudlin for letting me podfic your delightful love letter to our kind of horrible, kind of awesome home state. It was a blast.

Part of @caught-on-tape-fest. Thank you for running this fest, Dre, Jess and Kati!

Well hello there! Happy Sunday friends!

I’ve got a little snippet of chapter 9 of Depth of Reason but first, have y’all been watching these podfics for the @caught-on-tape-fest rolling in? We just wrapped the fest yesterday and we added 32 podfics to the fandom for a grand total of 84 podfics on AO3! 🤩

There’s some truly top notch content created for this fest and I am thoroughly enjoying listening to them. Do yourself a favor and cue up a podfic the next time you go for a walk or have some laundry to fold. You won’t regret it!

Ok, on to date night with our boys. Have way too many sentences:

“I never took you as a man of mystery, Snow.”

We only get halfway down the stairs before I’m turning him and pressing up against him so he’s backed into the corner of the stairwell.

“I’m a man of many surprises,” I say, threading my hands into his hair and kissing him deeply.

I don’t really know where my nerves went. I think my urge to taste and touch him overrode the gentle thrum of date night anxiety.

“I have neighbors, Snow,” he says, and I feel victorious at the way he sounds slightly breathless.

I frown at him. “No one can see us from here.” I kiss him again, just to prove a point, and we stay like that for a full minute or more before I remember that we’re on a schedule.

“Come on,” I say, pulling him with me as I direct us down the stairs.

“Menace,” he murmurs and I think I see him adjusting his trousers from the corner of my eye. I don’t say anything, but I have a hard time keeping the grin off my face.

I am losing track of tags these days and haven’t check this morning yet (I will!) so here’s a whole bunch of tags under the cut 💛

Sonic Sunday

I'm back again! Here's seventeen seconds of my next project.

This fic had a great opportunity for a sound effect. (Adding sound effects is frustrating, but oh so rewarding.)

Again, this is not for @caught-on-tape-fest, but just because I'm having a lot of fun. But I'll make something for the fest, and encourage you too!

Thank you for the tag today @iamamythologicalcreature (love that banner!)

And to all my mutuals, sunny wishes for your Sunday! If you'd prefer not to be tagged on these sound clips, let me know. :)

My first podfic for @caught-on-tape-fest of the wonderful @fatalfangirl's tremendous fic Playing the Field (which I have been obsessed with ever since it was posted).

[Podfic] Playing the Field on AO3 (rated E, length 45:53)

Baz is back on the football team after his late start to Eighth year, and his performance has been subpar. He can't score to save his life... and after Simon accidentally curses him, that's exactly what he'll need to do.

I re-read this one so often that I figured I might as well take a shot a re-reading it out loud for everyone else. As soon as I saw Stacy had put it on the claiming list I jumped on it!

(banner by Stacy + my scrawl 😂)

-G- and T-rated fics

-All fics, including M and E ratings (creators must be 18+ to claim one of these fics)

These lists are filterable by word count, estimated length of podfic, author, ship, etc. and will only show fics that are still available to be claimed (i.e. once a fic gets claimed using the form, they will disappear from these lists).

If you're claiming from this list, all you'll need to know when the form opens is the title of the fic, your email address and your ao3 username!

2. Fill in the sign up form (one entry per fic you want to claim). To do this you need to enter your info, select whether or not you are 18+, choose 'Claim a fic from the list', and then click '+Add' to choose the fic title you're claiming from the list. Then hit Submit and lather, rinse, repeat for any additional claims.

If you're signing up with a fic that the author has given you permission for which is NOT on this list

1. Fill in the sign up form (one entry per fic you want to claim). To do this you need to enter your info, select whether or not you are 18+, choose 'Claim a fic NOT on the list that I received permission from the author to podfic', and then enter all the required fields with the fic info (Title, link, Author Name, Rating). Then hit Submit and lather, rinse, repeat for any additional claims.

This form will stay open until September 15th! If you're claiming more than one, we ask that you be reasonable and only choose those you feel confident you can podfic, so that others may have a chance to claim their preferred fics.

You can check out the rules, schedule and FAQs if you have questions, and of course feel free to send us an ask, reply to this post or email the mods at [email protected].

Hello!! Thanks for the tags @hushed-chorus, @bookish-bogwitch, @cosmicalart, @j-nipper-95, @forabeatofadrum, @orange-peony, @ileadacharmedlife and @aroace-genderfluid-sheep! So fun to see what everyone is working on!

I've been doing some tests for audio for my @caught-on-tape-fest, which has been difficult because my children have been home sick almost every day this week. Anyway, got a first roll of a fic and learned a lot, like: I'm definitely not going to be trying a British accent (comes out half-Australian, I blame Bluey), I need a working doc so that I can highlight different characters dialogue in different colors to allow for different pacing and emphasis, and I need to talk slower.

That said, I am excited and it's fun. Haven't yet done any editing but I have done that before and I feel pretty sure I'll be able to manage.

Also this week I wrote some Simon's Two Mums and some of one of my CORB pieces. Sentences from both below!

My CORB piece, draft titled mechanic!Simon:

One of my foster families had three cars up on blocks in the backgarden. Kitty said she collected kids and Jules collected cars. It worked for them. Worked for me too. Kitty wasn't my biggest fan, but Jules didn't mind a quiet pair of eyes watching him, tools being passed his way when he reached for them. He didn't talk a lot either, but when he bought the Mini ('74) he patted the hood and said, "Happy Birthday, Simon."

Simon's two mums (draft titled normal!Simon even though he's reallllly not) also this is 8 sentences. Ah well:

Baz uses words like purview. I can barely get my lips around them. Why the crucible thought that he and I would be good as roommates, I don't know. But I do like him. And he likes Penny. And Penny likes me. So it works out, even if it does kind of suck to be the in-between friend. Not that Keris and Penny are better suited as roommates than Baz and me.

One thing that's helping me to work on these two pieces in tandem is that they're both stories where the WOM timeline doesn't happen the way it does in canon, so I get to be really generative in thinking about what the actual universe of CO is like, and what the social and political dynamics would be like if the events that happen canonically hadn't happened. Fun! Difficult! My jam.

Tag/hellos under the cut. :)

[Podfic] Return to Sender

A Carry On podfic by @tea-brigade for the @caught-on-tape-fest!

When he turned his key and opened the little panel, several packages that had been unceremoniously stuffed inside tumbled out at him, spilling onto the floor. A few more remained lodged inside, and a key to the parcel boxes hung precariously off the ledge.

...what.

Scooping up the fallen parcels, Baz inspected them. As he figured, they were not addressed to him, but to one Simon Snow. An unusually large case of a usual misdelivery. The address on each one, however, was clearly Baz’s.

Ta-da! Today I’m posting my first podfic for the Caught on Tape Carry On Podfest! This is Return to Sender by tealbrigade, and it is in fact a fic that is very close to my heart when it comes to the Carry On fandom! (Details in fic, I won’t ramble)

It’s for Teen and Up Audiences and about 40 mins! Highly recommend if you want some lighthearted romance that’s just a little bit tropey in a great way!

Learning how to podfic was probably one of the most confusing and challenging yet satisfying and passion filled things I’ve ever had to do, and although I am a little insecure about the quality of my first work and whether it lives up to this wonderful fic, I CAN say that I put my heart and soul into it. (Yes, even the somewhat rudimentary cover I tried so hard to make)

Finally, thank you so much to those at the @caught-on-tape-fest for making this whole thing possible, and for dragging me kicking and screaming into the strange new world of making podfics!

Please enjoy Return to Sender and keep and eye out for my other podfics later!
