The Harbingers

Audacious Machine Creative

Adam Blackwell and Amy Stirling met as graduate students in anthropology, both obsessed with studying the same dead language and long-lost culture. Their relationship was always... complicated. They were bitter rivals, ideological opposites, and even went out on a date once - though they’d really prefer if everyone forgot about that last thing, thank you very much.

Then, they became the first two people in thousands of years capable of doing magic.

Over the next five years, they became global superstars, both revered and feared. Their powers led to a tragedy unlike any the world had seen before. Now, the world's first two magicians of the modern age must figure out the truth of their power, its consequences, and their relationship with one another before they do more damage to the world.

The Harbingers is a new fiction podcast created by Gabriel Urbina, directed and sound designed by Jeffrey Nils Gardner.

By 2032, whether Adam managed to solve that riddle or not may be key to thousands of people and multiple nations surviving the Atlantic Crisis.

Episode 17: The Perfect Opening Line
Episode 17. The summer of 2032. Two years after the event that led to the destruction of Boston, the world is still reeling. While Adam serves the start of a life sentence, Amy works to change the way the public views that fateful day. It is a very uphill battle. However, when another of the world’s seven magicians uses her powers in a very dangerous, very public way, Amy and the Shepherd Administration must work together to find a way out of the modern world's second great magic crisis. But given the powers and the immunities that are granted to them by their Harbinger rings, what can they even do to stop a magician who very much feels like an unstoppable force?

The Story Thus Far
Season 2 is a couple weeks away. And if you don’t have time to re-listen to all of season 1, we wanted to help you out a little bit. So Jeffrey, Gabriel, and I are here to do a recap of season 1. Three quick thoughts before we jump in. First, s with our first season- we'll be doing livestreams of season two episodes before they air! There will be more information on our social media, and on our website at www.audaciousmachinecreative.com. Next, you know how the Harbingers is a story that jumps around in time? For this recap we have taken all the twists, turns, and loop-di-loops and ironed them out into a chronological straight line. By doing that, it makes some parts of the story more clear and some less clear. So you might notice new connections. But that leads me to my final thing - a caution. We left stuff out. This isn’t a replacement for listening to season 1. You will miss lots of stuff. So please, enjoy this for what it is. A good way to jog your memory and get excited about what comes next. Without further ado, please enjoy… the story thus far. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Episode 8: Both Sides Now
Episode 8, Christmas Special. On December 23rd, 2028, Adam Blackwell and Amy Stirling attended the same Christmas party in New York City. After a long, difficult year, they were both eager for a bit of fun and some time off. Little did they know, however, that chance encounters, long-awaited meetings, and dramatic revelations would all ensue in the course of just a few short hours - and that neither one of them would leave that party quite the same as they were when they got there. Be advised: this episode contains strong language, depictions of drinking and smoking, and discussions of politics. It also mentions, but doesn't depict, violence, attempted murder, death, and a large-scale disaster. Listener discretion is advised. The Harbingers was created by Gabriel Urbina.
