Listen "The Good Orc"
Episode Synopsis
I learned the art of creative paraphrase in college – taking the end of Habakkuk and turning it into a comedic monologue. The story was mostly the same, but different in ways that made it unique and special. That’s the goal of the Parables of the Nine Realms. If you’re new around here, the Nine Realms is the fictitious land in which the fictitious tavern The Bard & Bible sits. As the Bard & Bible podcast has gone on we’ve only been adding new elements to the realms – so it was only fitting to take some well-known bible stories and see what they’d look like if they were set in the world I’ve built.
The Good Orc is presented by the incredible talents of the following folks:
Tony Pullen as the Narrator
Mike Perna as The Innkeeper
Joe Monzo as Rockjaw
Dave Atkins as Caleb Fairwinter
James Hatton as the human brigand
Madeline Turnipseed as the dwarf brigand
Tadd Mencer as the Ursol Brigand
Rachel Knight as the Private
Ashley Mowers as Lt. Commander Astrid Wodeborn
And Andy Gray as Fr Elwin Westbridge
