Decoder Ring Theatre

It runs a podcast of the same name that has two series: Red Panda Adventures and Black Jack Justice, both of which are done in the style of old-time radio and are released on alternating weeks.

The programs were created as a pilot project for traditional broadcast, and were quite broad and silly in the belief that a comic approach might broaden their commercial potential.

The show was a great success at the 2001 Toronto Fringe Festival, and led Taylor to continue under the Decoder Ring Theatre title.

Soon it was receiving -email from all over the world[citation needed] asking for more, and Taylor began the long process of accumulating scripts, equipment and performers for an ongoing podcast audio drama series.

The most popular of these were two episodes of the space opera Deck Gibson, Far Reach Commander, written and created by Parsec Award-winning author Matt Wallace (The Failed Cities Monologues).
