Hey listeners, we have the trailer for a new season of a hit fiction podcast, I AM ECHO, from our friends at Voyage Media, to share with you today. Season 2 of this show, I AM ECHO, stars the great Tony Shalhoub, whom you might remember from MONK or THE MARVELOUS MS. MAISEL. Tony joins the cast for Season 2, but he's playing the character that's at the heart of Season 1, so his addition kind of brings the whole story full circle. Season 1 was about a young woman who discovers her brilliant scientist father might have been killed by her billionaire narcissist mother... and she finds the clue through memories her father implanted in her mind. Then in Season 2, more memories emerge, and the young woman's father, played by Tony Shalhoub, may be reaching out from beyond the grave. All episodes of Season 1 and Season 2 are available to listen to now!!

Chaos ensues for Roland and company at the Gunnar Inn. A new nightmare begins in the Season 5 premiere!! Music provided by: Taako @ soundcloud.com/madebytaako Additional tracks from Pond5.com and Artlist.io
