About the Creators of
Crack Between Worlds

The Original Idea

The original idea behind the Crack Between Worlds podcast came from Louise Rainey, fantasy author and podcast enthusiast in 2025. Not only did Louise come up with the idea, she also writes each and every episode and is one of the voice actors… we'll let you figure out which voices are hers. Our other voice actors are Dane Farren, fellow fantasy author, and Marvin the Mystery Man, who prefers to remain anonymous.

The Crack Observer, the tabloids that always seem to involve our reporters here in the Crack are written and reported by Louise Rainey and Dane Farren.

The podcast is produced in cooperation with Twisted Pine Publishing. If you're interested in advertising or sponsorship, click over to our sponsorship page.
