episode thirty-three: If you say so, Frog Butt

episode thirty-three: If you say so, Frog Butt

Published February 16, 2020

No one said life in space would be easy. Though if they’d listened closely, the people buying seats on the Oz ships might have heard G2 officials mutter under their breath about how easy death in space was going to be …

Anyway, it’s a Thursday aboard the Oz 9, which means Leet is optimistic about their chances of survival. He’s alone in that, but hey, he’s a rebel.

Published December 29, 2019

It’s the holiday season aboard the Oz 9, though how that happened when they launched in spring, like, a month ago, is anyone’s guess.

But whatever the case, there’s a mysterious box in Cargo Bay 7, and whether it was delivered by Santa or Satan… well, I guess you’ll have to listen to find out, now won’t you?

The Annual Assassins Holiday Dinner: It’s South Side Podfest!

Published December 25, 2019

On December 4, 2019, Oz 9 did a live show at the South Side Podfest at Bar 171 in Chicago, Illinois.

It was the evening of the Annual Assassins Holiday Dinner. Of course, the Albatros and le Bichon Frise attended, with chaperone Cpt. Madeline, who was very upset to learn that no one with any sense at all ate the delicious-smelling food.

Thank you to Nick Mataragas and Memoriam Development for creating this fun event and putting us on the list, thank you to Bar 171 for hosting us, and thank you to those who attended. Lady Trout’s henchmen will be visiting those who didn’t laugh enough, don’t think we didn’t see you.

Special thanks to Susan Franzen and Eric Davis for traveling vast distances – though not as far as us, we’re from outer space, for crying out loud – to take on special assassin duties.

You’ve been listening to:

June Clark Eubanks as the Albatros
Aaron Clark as le Bichon Frise
Introducing Susan Franzen as the Minx and Eric Davis as the Hound dog
Karin Heimdahl as Lady Trout,

Shannon Perry as Olivia and Madeline,
And Richard Nadolny as your Narrator.

Until next time, Space Monkeys, Narrator out.

episode twenty-nine: A rather amorous gecko

Published December 15, 2019

It’s episode 29, in which we learn the meaning of the Scottish slang word “boaking.” Repeatedly. In vivid color.

In this episode, the world has gone topsy turvy — up is down, left is right, enemies are friends…

But the fugu is still poisonous, and our crew are still idiotic and imperiled.

And there’s a gecko. An amorous one.

Published December 1, 2019

An episode so full of unexpected twist and turns, you should probably schedule an appointment with your chiropractor now.

episode twenty-seven: Too chiseled to burn

Published November 17, 2019

Does it sometimes seem like everything that is trying to kill you wants to talk to you about it first? I mean, I don’t really feel like I need to connect with you on an emotional level when I’m just trying to keep breathing.

Smart money’s on bad. I’m going with bad.
