Am I Old Yet? — Comedy audio drama

A coming-of-age, audio fiction comedy with a difference. Our ageing heroine shares senior moments, family relationships and adventures with some ancient Greek Deities —entertaining and a wee bit provocative. Written, performed and produced by Aussie-born, Liverpool-based actress, singer-songwriter and performance poet Flloyd Kennedy (Airmedia AMPLIFY New Voices fellow) with guest performers on 3 continents including Sarah Golding, Ira Seidenstein, Wendy Lap, Roy R Carruthers, Christopher McDougall. Coming soon - "Baked Off!" a brand new fiction podcast with sourdough bread by Flloyd Kennedy - it's all about the rise.★★★★★ "This is delightful storytelling from Flloyd Kennedy. Gentle but deceptively sharp; underestimate the characters populating this podcast at your own peril. The writing, performance and music are all a joy."   I use Buzzsprout and it makes hosting this podcast a smooth and enjoyable process.

episode 11: Allana Noyes - a tribute


Welcome to this personal tribute to my very dear friend Allana Noyes, who sadly passed away recently after a short illness.   This is a compilation of the episodes in which Allana played Helen's Great Niece Georgie, and Georgie's mother Flora.  For those of you who knew Allana, I hope you enjoy hearing her again, and for those who didn't, I trust you will enjoy her remarkable talent and joyous energy.  She is sadly missed...

episode 3: Comfort in Friendship


S8 Ep3 brings Helen some comfort from her friend Joey, but it comes with a challenge to up her game. Meantime the dastardly Minister for the Environment and Food Production (played by the wonderful Mr Matthew Field)  is definitely up to something. His new secretary (the gorgeous Ms Frankii Phoenix) is quick to spot it.
