Anti-Heroine is an audio anthology/podcast series that offers a fresh take on the anti-hero archetype. This eclectic mix of short comedy, drama, horror, and hybrid-genre “audio movies” have one common feature: the lead characters are all women, each with a bold or unconventional approach to life.

Sorry, not sorry - these ladies aren’t always “lady-like.” Anti-Heroine is dedicated to an exploration of female experiences and points of view – good, bad and ugly… amusing, dangerous and transcendent – and rarely seen in the media.
