Redwall meets boiled detective

Great show. Radio show style stories with a sense of humour and occasional song. A bit of a satire on, well... multiple genres. Intended for all ages, if a bit rough for some parents (drinking, fights, death, swearing, etc). Good fun.

Accesette ,

This is amazing!

Creative, amazing world, incredible acting, and wonderful writing including songs in each episode!

JC@theU ,

Great show!

I’m thoroughly enjoying listening to Wild Hollow. The characters are deep, the narrator clever, and the music a joy. Highly recommend for anyone looking to listen to something that catches your imagination and dips into genres from 1930s detective to sea shanties and pirates.
