Meet The Exile!

You're in the Oz 9 void — no new episodes until, what, Halloween or something? It's cruel, we know. We hear your howls of despair. But wait! We have something for you, to fill those long, lonely hours without Once-Captain Jessie, Colin, Mrs Sheffield, Greg, or Joe (Jesus!). Yes. We got you a hiatus prezzie, and we think you're really going to like it. If you're not already familiar with Curious Matter Anthology podcast, now is the perfect time to discover this amazing show. This season, Season 3, CMA is spending the entire season on one story: The Exile. I don't want to tell you too much because (a) spoilers, and (b) I've been typing all day and I'm seriously sick of it. And this is, you know, a podcast, so maybe just listen. It's my discussion with co-producers Jonathan Pezza (writer) and Tiffany Smith (lead) on how they assembled a dazzling cast, how Jonathan does his immersive sound design that's as cinematic as anything you'll see at your local multiplex, how podcasts differ from other media and what that means for actors and directors, and so much more. Hear the conversation, then continue on for Episode 1 of The Exile. You're welcome.

Om Podcasten

It's Spring 2142 (a Tuesday), and Gated Galaxies has launched its 400 Oz-8000 ships, each carrying 50,000 "resting guests" to, hopefully, a new home on a shiny, brand-new planet. Except this whole "terraform and take over" idea isn't actually the plan; the real plan is far more nefarious and involves a great deal of cackling. But those aboard the ships don't know that, so off they toodle (those that make it out of Earth's atmosphere, at least), all shiny and optimistic. This is the story of one of those ships – the Oz 9 – and its tiny crew of hopeless incompetents. So far, they've been in space half an hour and several hundred people are dead. So... bright future, clearly.
