52 Podcast (Season 1)
Project Overview
Hello!
My name is Ryan Hoover and I have written the first season of a fictional podcast called the 52 Podcast. I have been writing for years and came up with this idea a couple of years ago and managed to get it all down on paper. This is the first of (hopefully) several seasons, so I would love to have people audition that could potentially come back and reprise roles in the future.
Story Synopsis:
Two brothers, Solomon and Nicolae, stumble upon a cult-like gathering and come across a couple of artifacts in the form of ancient playing cards. After avoiding the cult members and some shady government operatives, the brothers begin to notice strange, budding powers that coincide with a visit from a group of people known as the Renaissance. From there, Sol and Nic embark on a journey to tame their new abilities, fight against the evil Enclave, and possibly save our world.
What I am looking for:
- Voice actors/actresses able to lend their voice talents for at least one season (with the possibility of more)
- Voice actors/actresses willing to work for free and/or to add to their portfolio (this is a passion project of mine and I cannot provide compensation and I wanted to be upfront with that)
- Individuals looking to have fun with an interesting story and dynamic characters
- Flexibility and patience with those that audition
If you have questions, please feel free to email me at [redacted].

Voice Actor
Petra
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to:
Cashlin Snow
She is a no-nonsense, wildly informal middle-aged woman with a mind of her own. She’s not afraid to tell you exactly what she is thinking and doesn’t give much regard to your feelings. She’s difficult to crack, but once she decides your worth her time then she is your friend and soldier-in-arms for life. Her ice abilities make her a formidable opponent and she uses them with deadly force. Petra has a thing for Noah Finley, which makes the Renaissance leader quite uncomfortable. Petra finds it quite hilarious.
(In this scene, Petra has shown up at the home of the two brothers [Sol and Nic] and is demanding to be let in)
PETRA: *muffled through the door* Hey! Open up!
...
PETRA: *still muffled* What do I want? My name is Petra and this here is Rosie and Caleb. We can do some pretty amazing stuff and I'm guessing, since we found our way here to you, that you can too.
Now I WANT you to open this door before I decide to open it for you. And I promise...I will cause a lot more damage than you will.
...
PETRA: One.
...
PETRA: Two.
...
PETRA: You're really gonna make me do it? They're really gonna make me do it. You're really gonna make count to three.
...
PETRA: Now that's more like it!
Okay, like I was saying...my name is Petra, but you can call me the Ice Queen. What can you boys do?
(In this next scene, Petra is explaining to Sol and Nic the nature of her abilities and why they are here)
PETRA: Of course with your cards! What else would I be talking about?
...
PETRA: See that guy behind me? His name is Caleb and he can track people like us.
...
PETRA: People with cards, with abilities. Duh. You guys aren't very quick on the uptake are you?
...
PETRA: *matter-of-factly* Ah yes. Agent 9. They told us that you would be here. *sarcastically* Should've known that was the reason that they were still confused. You were the one they sent to clear things up for them.
...
PETRA: Finley wants the new assets brought in as soon as possible. We're here to speed up the process.
...
PETRA: Not exactly champ. Would you like to see?
...
PETRA: *eagerly* Okay, but first a handshake is in order. It's nice to meet you gents!
CRACKLING OF ICE AS PETRA GRABS NIC'S HAND
...
PETRA: My demonstration. I can lower the temperature of the moisture in the air as well as manipulate various bodies of water to subzero temperatures.
...
PETRA: *smiling* Sure is.
...
PETRA: Oh my! Asking a girl about her card on the first date? How rude!
...
PETRA: I don't need YOU giving me orders Caleb. Remember who's in charge here.
*quick pause* ...oh alright. Don't get your panties in a bunch. My card depicts the Greek goddess of winter, Khione (kee-oh-nay). Hopefully that makes it quite obvious about the nature of my power.
...
PETRA: Hahaha! You're funny. I think I like you. What was your name again?
(In this scene, explains more about the organization [the Renaissance] and what they are up to)
PETRA: Yeah, we came to check on you green recruits to make sure you're not hurting yourselves. I ah...see it was warranted based on that blood coming out of your head Nic.
...
PETRA: Oh quite a few...well, at least there used to be quite a few. And we're always picking up new recruits. Like yourselves.
...
PETRA: Yeah, good ole Noah has been around longer than any of us and has also been the head of the Renaissance for just as long.
...
PETRA: But he don't look a day over thirty-five. *sigh* Makes a woman jealous. *chuckling* Helps that he's not so bad on the eyes though.
...
PETRA: *defensively* Oh shove it, Roger. Leave me my vices.
...
PETRA: *interrupting* Can it, Roger. I can tell them the story.
...
PETRA: Right. So back in the beginning, our world came into existence. God, chance, something else...whatever you believe in, it happened. The details aren't specific and, in the grand scheme of our work, unimportant. What does matter is that for everything that has come into existence...everything that IS...there is a balance. A thing that is NOT.
...
PETRA: *interrupting again* I'M telling the story Roger. *ahem* We don't know for sure. Very early on in human history, it was discovered that certain individuals could imbue objects with cosmic energy that manifested in different ways depending on the person wielding that power. Again, we don't know how they discovered the process...but many ancient civilizations rose and fell because of the powers they commanded. All the power and energy they had at their disposal was balanced...by the Void.

Agent 12/Bernard
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to:
RyanCadeVO
He is very much like Agent 9 when it comes to following protocol, but he takes it to the next level. He is straight-backed and formal, stopping nonsense wherever he finds it. He is put in charge of watching over Sol and Nic as new recruits because of his ability to sense the emotions and personalities of others.
AGENT 12: Hello Solomon. Hello Nicolae.
...
AGENT 12: Please...address me as Agent 12. That is proper protocol.
...
AGENT 12: I am not Roger. I have earned my designation through hard training and would appreciate being addressed as such.
...
AGENT 12: Thank you. Now, where were you two headed?
...
AGENT 12: I will accompany you.
...
AGENT 12: Correct. You do not.
...
AGENT 12: There are many different choices. I’m sure you’ll be pleasantly surprised with what we...
AGENT 12: Dr. Sanders...are you alright?
...
AGENT 12: This is Nicolae and his brother Solomon. They are here at Noah Finley’s invitation.
...
AGENT 12: I would keep most of our breakthroughs to yourself, Doctor. However, if the reports I’ve read on your research are anything to go by...you may share this particular breakthrough if you’d like.
AGENT 12: I think it’s time that we finish our meals and let Dr. Sanders here get back to her work.
...
AGENT 12: I’m supposed to escort you wherever...
...
AGENT 12: *hesitating* It has been a while since I’ve checked in with him about other tasks that have been assigned to me. Okay...but you’re to head straight to your quarters and stay there for the night. Understood?
...
AGENT 12: Very well. I will see you both in the morning.

Roussard

Unpaid
Role assigned to:
CadVO
Not much is known about Roussard other than his ability of mind control through speech. He was once a member of the Renaissance, but his past was covered up for some unknown reason. Petra claims to have bad blood with him but won’t speak much more about it than that. Roussard’s oily, smooth voice is enough to give anybody the creeps. His tendency to call the people he controls “pet” or “puppet” or other nicknames doesn’t make him any more endearing.
ROUSSARD: And now comes the fun part. Since this reality is ultimately doomed anyway, we might as well have some fun before it all comes crashing down.
...
ROUSSARD: And what are you going to do to stop us, worm?
ROUSSARD: *oily smooth voice* Knew we'd find our way to you eventually...oh look, the cavalry has arrived. That'll certainly make things more interesting. Six of them and six of us. At least it's evenly matched. Not that it'll be a fair fight. Ah...Petra...how good to see you again. Now...if you come quietly...
ROUSSARD: Heh...my turn. Hey girlie! *his voice becomes amplified* Stop!
...
ROUSSARD: *voice still amplified* That’s a nice toy you have there...turn it on yourself.
...
ROUSSARD: *amplified* You two: FREEZE!
SOUNDS OF STRUGGLING
That’s better. Now, girl...say goodbye.
Voice Actor
Rosie

Unpaid
Role assigned to:
PhantomMelody
The most soft-spoken of the group, Rosie’s immense strength makes up for her reticence with words. She has worked with the Renaissance for years and has done great work for the cause alongside her husband, Henry. Not long ago, Henry was captured by Enclave forces in an ambush. Rosie was devastated, thinking that her husband was dead. She became almost a one-woman operation against the Enclave, risking her life again and again to avenge her husband. Word finally came through that Henry was not dead, but alive and being tortured for Renaissance secrets. She carries a heavy sorrow and zealous hatred for the Enclave that she masks with her reserved demeanor.
ROSIE: *softly* My card has a jentil (Jen-til) on it.
...
ROSIE: The jentil were very strong giants who supposedly lived in the Basque region of France and Spain. Legend has it that they built all of the stone circles and other unexplained monuments because they loved to throw huge boulders around for fun.
...
ROSIE: Do you have a refrigerator?
ROSIE: Here, I can fix that.
SOUND OF RIPPING FABRIC
...
ROSIE: *apologetically* Sorry...super strength, remember? At least the blood flow is guaranteed to have stopped.
ROSIE: He can be...but I know how to talk to him. I know how to point him in the right direction...and unleash him.
...
ROSIE: He’ll listen to me. He’ll want to protect me. As long as I can keep him focused on that...we’ll be safe.
...
ROSIE: His cell is just down this hallway.

Dr. Merakis

Role assigned to:
FFA Nathan
A good-hearted, highly intelligent language professor, Dr. Merakis LOVES his work at the university. When Sol gives him some information about the cards and the chanting, Dr. Merakis jumps at the chance to do some rigorous research and learn more about the world around him. When he gets excited, he tends to start talking and it can be pretty hard to get him to stop.
DR. MERAKIS: Hello?
...
DR. MERAKIS: Ah, yes! Solomon! How are you??
...
DR. MERAKIS: I am actually LOVING it! I can just record all of my lectures and post them online for my students to listen to and have them submit everything through online portals. This has really freed me up to do research and academic work of my own! I'm currently working on how language and culture are being affected by the current coronavirus crisis. I've set up several interviews and gone to great lengths to collect data while also adhering to social distancing protocols and...oh gosh, look at me! You don't want to hear about all of this. How rude of me!
DR. MERAKIS: Wha...oh! Yes! It is fascinating! You said that it was from a horror movie that a small studio was shooting?
...
DR. MERAKIS: Yes...like I said, very fascinating! I am very interested in knowing where this particular studio got its hands on the dialogue in the clip. Some of these languages are very old, yes, very old indeed.
...
DR. MERAKIS: Oh I did more than that! I was able to discern the languages AND was able to translate some of the actual words themselves into our very own English.
DR. MERAKIS: Of course, of course! Now...was there anything in the way of monetary compensation for this assistance?
...
DR. MERAKIS: Oh...well...can't be helped I suppose...good academic data is never monetarily appreciated these days what with search engines and all that...
...
DR. MERAKIS: How delightful! That will be quite the sight! MY name in a film! Make sure they get my name spelled correctly: Edmund Merakis. That's E-D-M-U-N-D M-E....
...
DR. MERAKIS: Oh. Ha! You're quite right. Thank you Solomon.

Henry

Role assigned to:
Andrew
A tragic example of the evils that the Enclave is capable of, Henry’s ability to manipulate gravimetric forces makes him a force to be reckoned with. Add to that his unstable mental state and he becomes highly dangerous to anyone that he comes into contact with. He is Rosie’s husband and was captured and tortured by the Enclave, resulting in his broken mind. Rosie seems to be the only one that can bring him back to some semblance of sanity.
HENRY: *muffled* ...darkness, nothing but darkness...flowing into my brain, seeping, knowing, can’t forget...won’t forget...the voice...hurting me, pleasing me, no no no no no no...please no more...right back to where we started...never ending...where’s the beginning? Never ever ever ever ever alone again...can’t be can’t be can’t be....
...
HENRY: *sounding strained* Rosie? Is that you? Are you in the darkness? Can you be the voice for today? I need a different voice for today.
...
HENRY: *relaxing somewhat* Oh good...good...Why are you here?
HENRY: *dead, flat tone* What.
...
HENRY: *speaking low and rising in pitch and tone* The Enclave...oh no...the things...the pain...oh no...oh NO...I can’t let them hurt you...I can’t LET THEM HAVE YOU. NO. NO!!
...
HENRY: Yes. Yes...fighting would be good.
HENRY: Then let’s go outside.
...
HENRY: Yes...yessssssss...I can feel them. I can sense their anchors holding them to this earth.
...
HENRY: Let’s see the bad men...fly.

Carly/Vanessa

Unpaid
Role assigned to:
Cashlin Snow
Carly: Nic’s superficial girlfriend is prone to getting lost in social media for hours on end. She doesn’t seem very invested in their relationship, but she doesn’t seem to be very invested in anything besides her phone.
Vanessa: Sol’s girlfriend tries to be there for him, but struggles to understand his moods and lack of direction. She knows that he means well, but most of the time gets lost in her own world and leaves Sol to his.
CARLY: Hey yourself Nic. Thanks for inviting us over! I was getting SO FREAKING BORED just sitting at home, scrolling through social media. I mean, don't get me wrong...I LOVE snaps and the gram, but even they get old after a while. Oh, hey Sol!
...
CARLY: Yeah, the last thing Nic texted me was that you guys were going down to the graveyard to do some...ghost hunting or something?
...
CARLY: Yeah, yeah...whatever.
...
CARLY: That's kinda weird...Nic, you're involved in some kind of cult?
...
CARLY: Can we see the cards?
VANESSA: Hey! Don't forget about me!
...
VANESSA: Yeah...you can only binge so much tv before it starts to melt your brain. Though I'm always down to rewatch some of the Office or Parks and Rec for the umpteenth time! So what have you guys been up to?
...
VANESSA: And you haven't reported anything?

Mia

Role assigned to:
thevalwest
She is another recruit, training to use her abilities against the Enclave. Her power, the ability to develop technology and imbue it with some kind of energy power, makes her a formidable opponent. Her gun, the Distributor, is her pride and joy and unleashes devastation with every use.
MIA: I have a way: the ICS.
...
MIA: Instantaneous Communication System. Wren and I have been working on it. It’s similar to the device I gave you before, Nic. It taps into your neural energy and projects it audibly outward. Like a walkie talkie built into your head.
...
MIA: Take these modules and place them against your temples. Then just press down on them.
...
MIA: That was the device setting up. It’s a delicate process and it causes some discomfort, but now you should be able to communicate with anyone else that has one.
MIA: *confused* Wait, wait, wait...emergency tunnels? There are passageways connecting Warehouse 7 to the living quarters?
...
MIA: Yeah...we’d all like to be in on whatever plan you have. I want to go kick some Enclave tail!
...
MIA: So...how many of these things do you have? Do we each get one?
...
MIA: So how many of these things do you actually have?
...
MIA: It’s settled then. We get to Warehouse 7, those of us with the relocators have them set to jump to another reality, while Wren and Petra set the doorway to blow the Enclave to kingdom come.
MIA: *smugly* Little ole me? I have this.
...
MIA: Oh this? I call it the Distributor. It filters my anger and other negative emotions into concussive blasts. I’ve been loading it after every bout that I’ve fought for the past several months...not to mention all the anger I have toward the Enclave, especially since they decided to show up on our doorstep and start killing our friends.
THE CLICK, WHIRRING AND CLANKING SOUNDS AGAIN
It should pack quite the punch.
Voice Actor
Dr. Wren Sanders/ Dr. Robin Rockefeller

Unpaid
Wren: Dr. Wren Sanders is the resident Renaissance genius and is responsible for all the technology that the Renaissance uses in their fight against the Enclave. Her ultimate, top-secret endeavor: Project Trapdoor. Only she and Noah Finley have access to the project and are letting details out sparingly. All anyone knows for sure is that it will change the way that the Renaissance fights against the Enclave. She is prone to excitability when discussing scientific projects and has invented a special patch that enables her body to work for days at a time without rest. She tries to maintain scientific objectivity but has decided that her feelings for Nic will need closer examination.
Dr. Rockefeller: A mysterious doppelganger from a parallel universe, Dr. Rockefeller looks like Wren but is different in temperament and actions. She is amiable and always ready to lend her copious amounts of knowledge to the effort against the Enclave.
WREN: YOWZA!! THAT WAS CRAZY!!
...
WREN: I’m better than alright! I thought I was going to die for SURE that time. My whole life flashed before my eyes...it was actually very fulfilling because of all my accomplishments thus far. Ha. But I DIDN’T die! And now I can accomplish more!
...
WREN: Well, you see...I was working on...um...oh...I, uh...I don’t know you. Agent 12? Who is this young man? I cannot discuss Renaissance tech secrets with people I don’t know.
...
WREN: Ah! Well that changes EVERYthing! Uh...does it change everything, Agent 12?
...
WREN: Then this changes ONE thing! So you see...we were experimenting with the capacity of the D.P.U.s that we use on missions. D.P.U.s are...
...
WREN: You already know about them??
...
WREN: *interrupting excitedly* That’s AMAZING!! Then I don’t have to do any long-winded explanation of how the science works!
WREN: Come. To. MOMMA. *scarfing nachos noisily*
...
WREN: I do SO LOVE the nachos they have here. I see you got them too Nic. A man after my own heart!
...
WREN: Please! Call me Wren!
...
WREN: Ah, well...let’s see...Noah came and found me when I was tinkering in my dad’s electronics shop when I was...seven? Yeah...about seven years old. It wasn’t long before he showed up that I found a card with the image of Hephaestus on it. Of course, I didn’t know what it was at the time...but after finding that card...I was able to make the most AMAZING things. Noah showed up and convinced my father to bring me here, to Renaissance HQ, and let me continue creating. It’s been pretty incredible ever since.
ROBIN: Hello? Wren, is that you?
...
ROBIN: That is quite alright. How...
...
ROBIN: What is it like? Well...it is similar to yours in several respects...however, ever since our moon was damaged, our tidal system has been weakened. Oh and the scientist who was able to bring extinct dinosaur species back to life wreaked some havoc for a little while...but besides those...our histories are remarkably similar.
...
ROBIN: That is correct.
...
ROBIN: Of course! Talk to you soon!
