A speed-run of the events of season one (except the term "speed-run" may have been a little optimistic)

This recap is by no means mandatory listening. This is for those of you who, like me, prefer to have a refresher of every plot-relevant detail of the story before diving into a new season. And when I say every plot relevant detail, it seems I really do mean it. For obvious reasons, spoiler warning for literally the entirety of season one.

Content Warnings: General themes of death and grief throughout; very brief mentions of blood, death by car crash, death by gas explosion, loss of a parent, loss of a friend, loss of a partner; brief description of a violent physical attack and a character's resultant experience of trauma; discussion of grief and loss of a sibling; SFX of dripping blood (2:44-2:59), gunshot (12:12); portrayal of emotional manipulation and blackmail.

Written and produced by Leanne Egan. In this recap you heard clips of performances by Phil Thompson, Cameron Gergett, Michaela Hook, Sophia Leggett, Asher Amor-Train, Shannon Kelly, Jess Kadow, Josie Thomas, and Lauren Keller.

A brief hiatus announcement

Transcript:

Hi everyone,

Leanne here with an update on S2’s schedule. Since the mid-season break, our episode uploads have been a bit more erratic than I’d have liked. This has been for a few reasons, the combination of my debut novel launching last month, along with a few difficult situations in my personal life, and some new surprise deadlines that I need to meet in order to keep creating full-time. All of which has taken a harder hit on my health than I was expecting.

So, I’ve decided to place Tell No Tales on a temporary hiatus. Nothing too extreme, you’ll be hearing from us again soon enough, but just long enough to make sure than once we’ve got the ball rolling again, you be able to enjoy the rest of the season with no interruptions.

It’s a tough call, because I am SO excited for the remainder of this season, and I cannot wait for everyone to hear it. Our cast have all completed their performances brilliantly, so these delays are entirely on my end. But in my struggle to edit the audio and the transcripts on time, I’ve felt the quality slipping, which isn’t fair to myself, to our talented cast, or to you as listeners.

I couldn’t have asked for a more lovely group of listeners, and I do want to thank everyone for your patience and understanding this last month or so. I promise the story to come will be worth the wait. Until then, thank you to everyone who has shared kind words and support for this show. It means the world. Thank you for listening. And remember, the dead don’t bite.
