Introducing: “The World of Teddy Madison” Podcast — The Story Comes to Life

There’s something magical about hearing a story told aloud — the rhythm of breath, the weight of a pause, the emotion carried through a single line.

That’s why I’m beyond thrilled to announce the launch of The Word of Teddy Madison — a brand-new way to experience the world of Teddy Madison.

This podcast isn’t an audiobook. It’s something deeper — an immersive storytelling journey that blends narration, performance, and reflection to bring the characters, atmosphere, and heart of the novel to life.

Why a Podcast?

When I first began writing Teddy Madison, I always imagined it as more than words on a page.
The book’s rhythm — the dialogue, the silence between sentences, even the subtle tension of emotion — begged to be heard.

The Teddy Madison Podcast is my way of translating that atmosphere into sound.
It’s part audiobook, part behind-the-scenes series, and part emotional diary — a creative experiment in storytelling that lets you hear the heart behind the words.

What You’ll Hear

Each episode will blend original narration, adapted excerpts from the novel, and immersive audio design inspired by the 1920s.

Expect:

Voice performances that give life to Teddy, Mrs. Fairfax, and the world they inhabit.
Original scoring influenced by the music of the Jazz Age — haunting, elegant, and modernized for today.
Commentary episodes where I discuss the creative process, symbolism, and the story’s deeper emotional threads.
Guest conversations with artists, readers, and historians about queerness, art, and truth in historical fiction.

It’s not just a reading — it’s an experience.

Episode One: “Welcome”

The premiere episode, The Artist and His Shadow, introduces Teddy Archibald Madison as he begins dictating his memoirs in the final years of his life.
Through his exchanges with Mrs. Fairfax, we’re invited to question the reliability of memory, the fragility of art, and the ghosts that linger in our confessions.

It’s moody. It’s lyrical. It’s Teddy Madison.

Final Thought

“Art doesn’t end when the brush leaves the canvas — it keeps speaking, long after the artist is gone.”

That’s what this podcast is for: to let Teddy Madison keep speaking.
Thank you for listening, for reading, and for stepping into this world with me.
