Elliot Turner has finally made it to the Moon.

Unfortunately, he has also made it into a room filled with humanity's finest minds.

Scientists, diplomats, strategists, visionaries... and Elliot.

After an unexpected incident that definitely won't become a problem later, Elliot comes face-to-face with the team tasked with guiding Earth into the wider galaxy.

Who are they? Why were they chosen? Can humanity really be trusted with interstellar diplomacy? More importantly, can Elliot?

The future of Earth is about to be discussed by the people most qualified to decide it.

Which is concerning, because Elliot is in the room.

Things are not going well for Elliot, for humanity, and potentially for the universe itself.

Dragged into a hidden interrogation facility disguised as an office designed by authoritarian accountants, Elliot faces a secret organization determined to understand his invention.

Meanwhile, billions of humans attempt to cope with the discovery of alien life by resorting to panic, conspiracy theories, and podcasts.

Will Elliot survive? Will humanity recover from learning it is not special? The aliens are beginning to have doubts.

The universe finally introduces itself to humanity on Mars.

Meanwhile, hidden beneath Earth, a secret organization unknowingly prepares for a completely different disaster.

Dragged into a classified meeting about his invention, Elliot Turner realizes the future of the species may now depend on keeping certain people very far away from technology.

A sci-fi comedy audio drama about first contact, alien life, Mars, conspiracy, dystopian technology, existential dread, and humanity making catastrophically bad decisions.

Humanity’s first landing on Mars was supposed to change history. They weren’t supposed to have a meeting. When astronauts unexpectedly discover an intelligent alien, the future of the human race changes instantly, and nobody is emotionally prepared for it. The aliens remain calm. Humanity absolutely does not.

In a galaxy overflowing with sentient beings, meet Elliot, the last flicker of hope, or perhaps just the universe’s cruelest joke. Trapped in an office that mistakes world domination for a promotion path, he’s armed with a device that defies logic, ethics, and basic judgment.

Watch as Elliot makes a break for it, propelled by desperation and a healthy dose of absurdity. Is he escaping to freedom or just diving headfirst into another existential crisis? Who knows! With each twist, we plunge deeper into the chaotic hilarity of the human experience.

Join us for a wildly unhinged adventure where sanity is optional, and laughter is the only escape route. Will Elliot find liberation, or will he spiral into a black hole of paperwork? Tune in and embrace the delightful madness of it all!
