Down Range, using a combination of first-hand narration and immersive sound design, will give listeners an opportunity to hear sounds of real-time war, as bullets whistle overhead and setoff mini-sonic booms just inches away. The series works to help the audience understand what it feels like to silently drop onto battlefields, some of which that the rest of the world never knew existed, and appreciate the courage it takes to risk everything in service of the mission.

Tenderfoot TV, founded by Payne Lindsey and Donald Albright, is the company behind audio series such as Up and Vanished, Monster, Radio Rental and To Live and Die in LA.

“I’ve had the opportunity to tell stories through acting, writing and recently directing, so I’m super excited to stretch my storytelling muscles in this new, for me, and innovative way. Many thanks to Donald Albright and his stellar team at Tenderfoot TV for extending this partnership to me,” said Adeleke.

“I’m excited to help tell the stories of some of America’s heroes and bring a heightened sense of awareness to the sacrifices being made to protect and defend the freedoms we all enjoy. The immersive sound design and creative storytelling of Tenderfoot TV and Telegraph is going to bring these stories to life in a powerful way,” added Rich Choppa.
