      <title>Introducing: Set Sail!</title>
      <description>It’s been 3 years since Leo, Frankie and Mikhail were left to survive on the streets of Trine after a mysterious house fire that took their parents. Now, they’ve been separated for the first time and must find their way back to each other. While Leo is captured by the intimidating Lord Cull and bought as a slave, Mikhail and Frankie find themselves amongst pirates on a ship and sailing to another land! The children learn more about themselves and the world they’ve been thrust into as they try to navigate their way home – but life isn’t as simple as it once was. 



Set Sail! is a story about following your own path; choosing your own destiny. The interactive nature of the show plays into that theme by allowing the audience to help choose the path. The story is also about found family and survival. It’s a coming of age story with lots of lighthearted moments, fun characters and adventure.  This is an interactive series where the audience can help shape the story by voting for what happens in each episode!

      <title>Teaser Trailer</title>
      <link>https://sidequesting.pinecast.co/episode/4d1da9b4/teaser-trailer</link>
      <description>Sidequesting is a fantasy podcast about avoiding the main plot! It follows Rion, an adventurer who's willing to help just about anyone out - as long as they don't have to deal with the scary wizard everyone's talking about.

TRANSCRIPT:

Miller: Aren’t adventurers supposed to have a specific purpose? What are you doing on this quest, just meeting strangers?

Rion: Yep! My purpose is to have no purpose. Though… I sort of find purpose as I go.

Oliver: My basket! It’s missing! I’ve spent all morning gathering them and now they’re gone and I think someone took them!

Jefferson: I have tried many means of defense but none have yet proven successful. A single man cannot defeat him!

Willow: I just wish someone would succeed in getting that darn sword. Or that they would all decide it was impossible and give up and go home.

Lord: I am under attack by this ruffian!

Rowan: I want to be big and strong and fight evil!

Iris: I fear I’ve ruined any chances of civil conversation. I have hope that if you show up at her door, she might listen.

Clara: My dad wants to marry me off to another princess to join our kingdoms or some nonsense like that.

Sam: Wanna help me yell at them? With your sword? In a… threatening manner?
