As the founder and operator of Star Wars Fanworks: The Home of Star Wars Fan Audio, I would like to introduce you to the Star Wars Fanworks Audio Feed, an all-new way of getting your fix of Star Wars fan audio from Fanworks.
Fanworks launched on September 1, 2003, to provide a home and hub for the growing community of amateur audio producers whose projects centered around the Star Wars franchise and its fandom community. Since that time, the genre has grown from a small handful of creative individuals into an entire creative community that is out there, actively creating podcasts (which we used to just know as "internet-based radio shows"), audio dramas, and audio parodies, while also, in some cases, branching out into other creative genres as well.
Since 2003, the RSS feed has developed into an easy and effective way to get audio productions out to listeners. While many in the Star Wars fan audio community embraced this new technology and created feeds for their own productions, there has never, until now, been a centralized feed that is meant to focus on fan audio productions from various creative teams and specifically designed to include audio dramas and parodies alongside podcasts, rather than being exclusive to podcast (radio show) style materials.
As a fan, a creator, and a patron, I invite you to visit
StarWarsFanworks.com and check out the
Star Wars Fanworks Audio Feed. As our genre of choice would say, may the Force be with the fan audio community.
For those who wish to subscribe to the feed without vising the site (party poopers!), you can subscribe to the feed directly by using the following URL:

At the moment, the feed includes:
Second Strike: Act 1: Descent (audio drama, part 1 of 3)
Second Strike: Act 2: All Fall Down (audio drama, part 2 of 3)
Second Strike: Act 3: Ascension (audio drama, part 3 of 3)
Doubts Cast (audio drama, episode 1 of 7 in the Anthology series)
Dreamscape (audio drama, episode 2 of 7 in the Anthology series)
The Mob (audio drama, episode 3 of 7 in the Anthology series)
Addiction (audio drama, episode 4 of 7 in the Anthology series)
Responsibility (audio drama, episode 5 of 7 in the Anthology series)
Coming within the next few days:
No Way Out (audio drama, episode 6 of 7 in the Anthology series)
To Overcome (audio drama, episode 7 of 7 in the Anthology series)
More than likely, coming in the next few days should also be at least an episode or two of the classic Digital Llama Radio (at the blessing of Chris Hanel) and some early classic episodes of the audio parody series Tatooine TV (from Jeff Roney).
Expect 250 MB of fan audio goodness released into the feed each month from the overall community.
