I've already done a rather long rec but the more the merrier right! I had a list of "random" podfics I wanted to rec but couldn't seem to fit to a theme so I'll just add them on here.
Big Blue read by triedunture This is House, in my head. Triedunture's reading is spot on, her House voice is perfect there's one point at which she says "Gimme" as House asking Wilson for money and it's so wonderfully in character. She doesn't just read the text she inhabits it. Seriously, this is how I imagine House really is to the point where I expect Triedunture to be narrating the real episodes. And of course, unlike House (the show), this could also fit in the "hot in here" rec list, House/Wilson. http://audiofic.jinjurly.com/the-big-blue
Ties that Bind read by read by twilight_angel This is a fun story and Twilight's voices are lovely particularly her Batman voice. However what makes this podfic for me is her Tim ("trauma for ever!") spot on and highly amusing. :D http://audiofic.jinjurly.com/ties-that-bind
iHero read by twilight_angel This podfic has neat use of music which fits perfectly and definitey enhances the story. The original text is just so much fun and Twilight really capitalizes on that I cannot imagine not smiling when listening to this podfic. It's just so much fun. It's also very long almost 10 hours making it wonderful for long distance travel. http://audiofic.jinjurly.com/ihero
Commutative Property read by dodificus So I'll be upfront and admit that I have read every version of "lemon chicken" stories there are out there. I thought The Dead Poets Society was a beautiful happy-making film, and Magic's Pawn (the Last Herald Mage) and the Ion Arc were formative stories in my young adulthood. My preception of angst is rather skewed I have yet to meet anyone else who feels quite the same way I do about angsty-self-esteem-depression-character issues. This story manages to hit all my buttons, and it's auditory. Everything's better when you hear it. Dodificus does an amazing job reading it just adds to the beautiful "ouch" of all of it. Particulary with the emotion she brings to the dialogue, both the unaware and then dawning understanding of the characters around Rodney and Rodney's voice itself. It makes the situation all the more sharp. Again, fore-notice if you have issues with eating disorders and hearing about them might be triggering this is definitely not the story for you. However I can say I've listened to this multiple times and will certainly do so again I'm sure. http://audiofic.jinjurly.com/commutative-property
Summer of (kinda, sorta) Love read by aphelant Interesting use of 2nd person, the reader really brings it out, like an internal monologue. This podfic is the reason I went to watch Skins. I just love how it sounds like mental narration through the intonation and word emphasis, I can see/hear the characters thinking this way. http://audiofic.jinjurly.com/summer-of-kinda-sorta-love
Time of Your Life ready by aphelant I love David's (Archuleta) voice here and how the rest of the narrative fits in with it in how Aphelant reads: eager and helpful and happy and so Cute! (I hadn't really thought about how someone could sound cute before but this really just makes you want to give Archuleta a hug) 2.5hrs http://audiofic.jinjurly.com/time-of-your-life
