hiatus episode 1: chat with Richard C, Tim, June, and Aaron

Oz 9 podcast is on a hiatus between seasons one and two, but you didn’t think you were getting off the hook that easily, did you?

Goodness, no.

In this spoiler-ridden, one-f-bomb-droppin’ bonus episode (and we use the word “bonus” with some optimism), four of our cast members chat about life aboard the Oz 9.

You’ve been listening to:

June Clark Eubanks (the Albatros and Glenda)
Aaron Clark (le Bichon Frise and Ben)
Tim Sherburn (Colin, Emily/Head two, Buck Nubbins) and
Richard Cowen (Leet)

Our theme music was composed and performed by John Faley.

episode twenty: In space, no one can hear you stupid

Somewhere aboard the Oz 9, a bomb is ticking. Actually, a crap-ton of things are going wrong aboard the Oz 9; this is just the biggest and most likely to kill our crew the soonest.

It’s the final episode of Season 1, and our crew is, yes, yes, let’s say it all together shall we? in mortal peril. 

The difference this time is – if they don’t survive it, we might not either.

June Eubanks as the Albatros
Aaron Clark as le Bichon Frise
Richard Cowen as Leet
Tim Sherburn as Colin and Emily
Eric Perry as Joe, Dr. von Haber-Zetzer and Head 1
Shannon Perry as Olivia and Madeline
Bonnie Brantley as Jessie and Donna, and
Richard Nadolny as the Narrator

episode nineteen: Peeing in a bucket and eating pocket lint

If you’ve ever been in mortal peril,

you know the most crucial decision you’ll make in that situation is your choice of writing implement.

No? Well, that makes you smarter than this crowd, but before your head swells up just in time for bikini season, remember, we are talking about the dumbest bunch of sofa cushions ever to have their own theme song.

Things have never been good aboard the failing, flailing Oz 9, but they’ve recently taken a turn for the worse. And, given that all the left-side engines are out, they just keep turning.

With just 2 episodes left in Season 1 of Oz 9, the crew is running out of time. Join us as they waste a bunch of it, trying to survive another day.

episode eighteen: I speak a little oregano

You know that one colleague at work who is just hopeless? Tries earnestly to do the job, help out, and be useful, but usually ends up spilling his beer on the control panel and shorting out half the city? Yeah, would you mind taking him back because WE HAVE ENOUGH IDIOTS UP HERE, THANKS.

Sorry.

Seriously the best part of this whole episode is when someone named Kenzie tries to order Thai food.

episode 17 and a half: Between the wormhole and the Rinse McGoo

It’s that kind of day, innit? One minute, you’re out having a quick ciggie next to the tip, and then the world goes all wobbly, and suddenly you’re aboard someone else’s spaceship, only it’s held together with duct tape and optimism and crewed by the biggest bunch of idiots who ever graced the skies, and there’s something … or possibly someone … all over your boots.

Big thanks to the Mark Restuccia of the Best in Galaxy podcast for lending us C4 for a while.

You can have him back now.

episode seventeen: So the deed could not be done

The episode that finally answers the critical question: why do robots climb like cows?

There’s an arm under the sofa, Jessie’s dangling from a shelf in Maintenance Bay 15, and we learn what ligatures are for.

It’s, like, Day 7? 8? aboard the Oz 9, and things haven’t gotten any better. Does anyone know a good pycnologist?

episode sixteen: We are not breathing the passengers

‘Allo, little piggies!

The notorious assassin le Bichon Frise is circling our crew like a vulture who hopes his prey drops soon because he’s tired and hungry and a little cranky and frankly probably a little dehydrated and his blood sugar’s low, he just knows it, and this dry desert air is doing NOTHING for his skin.

He’s ready to do some assassaning, but this bloody crew just will not cooperate.

Oh, and pod 666 just popped open, so it’s anyone’s guess what happens next.

Bonnie Brantley as Jessie and Donna
Tim Sherburn as Colin and Head 2
Eric Perry as Joe, Head 1, and Mr. Southers

episode fifteen: Heroic Running!

Here’s a shocker: the Oz 9 crew’s lives are in danger. Suffocation, toxic gas, a loose assassin, the risk of being crushed under their own denseness–perils lurk around every corner and certainly between slices of bread.

Still, they’ve managed to make it through 14 episodes, so there may be hope for them yet.

Oh, who are we kidding. These people would starve to death on a broken carousel.

Mini episode fourteen and a half

In Which it’s late, and there’s an assassin loose aboard the Oz 9, but Leet isn’t going to let that interrupt his conversation with sleeping people.

After all, in at least a dozen conversations, only one of them called him stupid.

Leet really REALLY needs a pen pal.
