Television writer and producer Mark Haynes is launching the audio drama Hindsight: The Day Before, which is based on the original television series "Hindsight” that is now in development at Mark Haynes Productions.
Haynes has teamed with Libsyn to distribute and sell advertising on the podcast. Described as a supernatural thriller, the podcast follows Professor John Gabriel Strasser, who, after an impulse purchase at a Harlem curio shop, is sent on a life-changing journey. It drives him toward a profound and dangerous realization of who and what he is, and the mission he will have to take on in order to survive.
The podcast was written and directed by MHP partner Kely Lyons. It features a cast that includes Santiago Cabrera, Sibongile Mlambo, Ian Anthony Dale, M.C. Gainey, Merrin Dungey, Aaron Stanford, Nolan Gerard Funk, and John Goodman. Libsyn Ads has signed an exclusive advertising partnership.
“The buzz is already building for our innovative dramatic audio series which is set to captivate listeners and transport them to new dimensions,” said Haynes in the announcement. “We look forward to building on our new collaboration with Libsyn Ads, leveraging their pioneering track record, expertise and trusted relationships to match us with top-tier advertisers to amplify our reach and drive the success for our series debut.”
The series is co-produced by Ted Bonnitt and RadioPictures. Bonnitt collaborated with MHP to design the series’ Dolby 3D audio production.
“Mark Haynes Productions is pushing the boundaries of audio storytelling with the debut of this dramatic podcast show,” said Trevr Smithlin, Head of Publisher Relations at Libsyn Ads. “We’re thrilled to kick off this new partnership in delivering sophisticated podcast advertising tools, including our programmatic solutions and advanced measurement, to engage relevant advertisers and enthrall listeners with this thrilling new audio series.”
The six-episode Hindsight: The Day Before will debut July 22 on all podcast apps.
