You can hear her dulcet tones on four podcasts, including The Losers Club: A Stephen King Podcast and TV Party, both with the Consequence Podcast Network, as well as Debating Doctor Who and Podlander Drunkcast: An Outlander Podcast, the latter of which is exactly what it sounds like. Allison also produces and performs with Redacted, a Chicago-based group that lovingly skewers your favourite movies in the lounge of the historic Music Box Theatre.
