Ep.21 Call of the Sirens

Thu, 01 May 2025 06:00:00 GMT

Ep.21 Call of the Sirens


All is not going well for the crew of the aging salvage vessel, The Kayleigh. It's been slim pickings of late, and that drop in income has led to corners being cut, and the ship is having to be gently limped back to the nearest spaceport after it's navigation AI has to be taken offline.

Divisions are also running deep and tempers hot among the crew.

But as they attempt to manually navigate a notoriously unstable region of the sector, a mystery signal is detected - a distress call from a stranded vessel, promising wealth and fortune for any would-be rescuers. But is it worth the risk? And is it just too good to be true?

This is our second episode swap our friends from Giant Monster Productions. It's another episode of the Tales from the Author anthology podcast


Glitch

A small group of astronauts have been chosen to crew the first manned space voyage to Mars. Or have they? The crew knows there is a 50% chance they could merely be participating in a realistic computer simulation of the mission, an analog for the real crew.


But before they discover the truth, contact with Earth is lost part way through their journey - suggesting something catastrophic has happened back home.


But are they out in space, facing the prospect of returning to a doomed planet? Or are they actually on Earth, locked in a simulation while the real world burns around them?

Bonus Episode - Murder On The East Ward - 11th Hour Audio Challenge Entry

Sun, 03 Dec 2023 09:00:00 GMT

A bit of a bonus episode for you.


The cast and production crew of Strange New Worls and Spaced Out Tales submitted an entry into the 11th Hour Audio Challenge this year. And we've decided to make that one-off episode available here on the feed.


It's something of a departure from our usual Sci-Fi fare, but we hope you'll enjoy it, and that it will tide you over until the release of Season 2 in the New Year.

Enjoy :)

Behold! Now is the time of 'The Dysfunctional 5!'
