About Our Guest

Matthew has been fascinated by audio dramas since he was a young child, listening to old-time radio at the age of 8. This passion for storytelling through sound has been a part of his life for as long as he can remember. He views the creation and consumption of audio dramas from both perspectives - that of the creator and that of the listener. As a creator, he relishes the power to craft intricate worlds, characters, and scenarios for the audience to enjoy. On the flip side, as a listener, he appreciates the unique ability to interpret and visualize the story in his own way. He sees it as a partnership between the creator and the listener, where each plays a vital role in bringing the story to life. This is what Matthew finds special about audio dramas - the freedom for each individual to experience the story in their own unique way. In a world where visual media like movies and television dominate, Matthew finds solace in the immersive and personalized experience of audio dramas.
