    Rudyard Ruins Everything: A Very Mini Series will drop 24 - 27 September

    Rudyard Ruins Everything will be released in your podcast feed as a mini-series, recorded in studio. Just like the rest of the show. Last year, we performed our tenth year special at the London Podcast Festival to a sold out audience. Rudyard Ruins Everything was a new 90 minute story that took place between seasons two and three. If you made it to our birthday party in person or online, thank you. It was amazing. So amazing, in fact, that we want to share it with even more of you. We recut the script into a four episode mini-series, set over four days on Piffling. Then we booked a studio and recorded it all over a weekend in May. For once, we didn't need a fundraiser: your live show ticket sales helped us over the line and into the studio! Rudyard Ruins Everything: A Very Mini Series will be available to you, for free, wherever you get your podcasts. Thursday 24 September: Rudyard Ruins Everything - Day 1 Friday 25 September: Rudyard Ruins Everything - Day 2 Saturday 26 September: Rudyard Ruins Everything - Day 3 Sunday 27 September: Rudyard Ruins Everything - Day 4 Learn more about your ad choices.
