We're taking a short mid-season break! In the meantime, we wanted to share the first episode of a friend of the pod, The Strange Case of Starship Iris, created by Jessica Best.

Biologist Violet Liu is floating through space, trapped in a doomed research ship. She's the sole survivor of a devastating explosion, and frankly, her odds aren't looking great, either. But when she is contacted by the charming— and woefully inexperienced— Captain Kay Grisham, Violet learns she might have one last shot at making it out alive. Unfortunately, it's a real longshot.

The Strange Case of Starship Iris is a Procyon Podcast Network production, as part of the Fable and Folly Network.
