Sad thing is. Ive searched to see of I could find any quality star trek radio dramas. There are a scant few dramas and of poor quality. Ive found nothing of great quality. Nothing with good writing, acting or sound effects. Ive never found anything that even measures up to a 45 to 50 minute TOS episodes. Below is an example of a old record drama that someone added TOS sound effects to. Not a good story or acting..
I remembered this thread which y'all might wish to read: (please don't reply to it, it's 9 years old) https://www.trekbbs.com/threads/if-tos-had-been-a-radio-drama-first.282743/
Interesting...not only had none of the Human combatants ever seen a Romulan in person, but neither would the audience. That's meta.
Here is some narrated Star Trek fan audio on my website.

Also, The Engineering Chronicles are short funny comedy clips that you might enjoy:

That's the appeal for me. You could see from each perspectives but not actually see the two sides interact beyond audio transmissions and the conflict unfolding.
A prequel series based around Garek’s life before Deep Space 9, with it ending when he arrived on DS9 for the very first time. It would be like secret logs to himself based on various missions he had done for his career. Where he actually fully tells the truth about what happened in his past as he is only talking to himself.
A series with just one character with the events from his perspective.

It is very real and very good.
I want something like Sid and Andy's "Alone Together" audio series. I loved that mystery and I loved the other characters who appeared along the way.
I want more Read Along Adventures. Give me an "Into Darkness" read along

Here is an audio Captain Sulu story that HoloNet Audio did. It's fanfiction audio, but it's a fairly well done story that's also a sort of prequel to "Relics."There was this trilogy of Captain Sulu stories set on the Excelsior. That's something that's still doable.
Captain Sulu Adventures
The Captain Sulu Adventures was a trilogy of audio dramas from Simon and Schuster Audioworks starring George Takei as Hikaru Sulu in command of the USS Excelsior. The three stories were released in 1994 and 1995. Transformations Cacophony Envoy Star Trek Monthly issue 2 announced that a Captain...memory-alpha.fandom.com
STAR TREK: Ever Upward
It probably won’t happen but I would like to see something along the lines of how Big Finish Productions brought a bunch of Dr Who actors back to do a series of original dramas only for Star Trek. They could bring in entire casts of TNG or any of the series to do original stories. It would be so great to see a DS9 or Voy follow-up in audio form. They would have my money in an instant.
I must say, I do love how technology has gone in so full a circle that audio dramas are popular now, almost a century after their invention as radio dramas.
I'm not really aware of them being so to be honest, they're popular in niche circles like Dr. Who where it allows old stars to reprise their roles but that's really it. I mean the Star Wars franchise which is the biggest franchise there is couldn't even get Corey Burton or someone at least trying to sound like Christopher Lee to be Dooku in the Dooku Jedi Lost audio drama.
I do too. I stumbled upon a whole YouTube playlist of audio dramas, specifically detective stories. Plus, there are still radio stations I hear with it.
A niche, perhaps, but definitely an enjoyable one.
