This is nothing like the usual fare we've posted on Crom! in the past, but some of you will undoubtedly get a kick out of it! A long while back (about the time that Atlantis sunk) I got an email from a fellow by the name of Patrick Roach and here's what he had to say:
A friend and I have written (rewritten), recorded, and produced a Conan radio play. Given that a Conan radio drama didn't strike us as wacky or hyper niched enough, we made a notable change to the setting.
Essentially, we gracelessly pulled Hyperboria into a noir style setting, complete with fedoras and slug throwers (leaving in of course wizards and giant snakes and glorious stuff of that nature). So Conan cracks wise in heavy handed metaphors while putting bullet holes in dark magics.
We call it Noir Barbare, and it is ridiculous, and fun (hopefully).
I finally sat down and gave all five episodes a listen, and it really has a great cast of characters, is well produced, and a lot of fun! So take the jump and check them out (for free of course) either on Tumblr or iTunes!
Thanks for the share Patrick, and my sincere apologies for taking so long to post it!
