Oz 9

It"s Spring 2142 (a Tuesday), and Gated Galaxies has launched its 400 Oz-8000 ships, each carrying 50,000 "resting guests" to, hopefully, a new home on a shiny, brand-new planet. Except this whole "terraform and take over" idea isn"t actually the plan; the real plan is far more nefarious and involves a great deal of cackling. But those aboard the ships don"t know that, so off they toodle (those that make it out of Earth"s atmosphere, at least), all shiny and optimistic. This is the story of one of

2022/08/14

It's entirely possible this story has spun a wee bit out of control. But then, isn't that a lot like...life? I mean, take your basic ergonomic keyboard. Don't you want to bash its tiny electronic brains out on a rock, only it was expensive and nominally doing something useful for your hands or wrists or something? While that might be an overreaction, might it also be considered an entirely understandable response to the fact that every time you try to type an exclamation point you get that weird

episode seventy-five: Mad stories of trampled relatives

2022/07/31

Note: This is the final episode narrated by Richard Nadolny. His fabulous daughter Chris Nadolny Gourley takes over the mic in 76. Other note: despite what the credits say, this episode was edited by Sarah Golding and sound designed by Oliver Morris. (Both geniuses; give them lots of gigs and money.) Note 3: The subtitle is just in case he's googling himself. :) We'd say the pace is picking up, but seriously, when you're just going around in circles because half of your engines are blown out, does

Warning: this is narrated by Richard, so take care of you. He didn't mean to make you sad. Brugmansia, it turns out, isn't a type of Italian leather shoe. Nor is it the third movement of something by Beethoven. And it is definitely NOT edible. But it can be stuck in one's mouth and swallowed, so of course, the bumfluff crew of Oz 9 did. BTW, St. Leonard's Day isn't a real thing. But it should be. You've been listening to Bonnie Brantley as Jessie and Donna Richard Cowen as Leet Tim Sherburn as

Content Warning: Big emotions around death and suicide. Before he left us, Richard recorded several episodes ahead. Hard as it is to hear his voice, it's also a joy to have a little more Narrator to share. He wanted these episodes to go out, and we want to honor that wish. So you will hear Richard a few more times. If that's too much for you, skip on to 76, read the transcripts instead (you can find all our transcripts with their episodes on https://oz-9.com).

If you've never had chocolate milkweed with rosemallows, you're really missing out. On stomach upset, whiplash-inducing vomiting, an itchy rash, and unconsciousness, which is really the best part. Despite the litany of side effects, Leet is dishing up a mug just for you, so please join us aboard the Oz 9, as we head out for another entirely pointless journey.

Leet's been boiling up ... well, we're not sure what those are. He thought they were apples, and he was trying to make apple cider. Or maybe apple sauce, we're not really clear what he was aiming for. In any event, he ended up with something that can only be contained in these special jars the Albatros makes from clay from the bioswamp; it burns right through everything else. Anyway, if someone invites you to have a swig of swamphooch, we really suggest you run away. Maybe punch them first, because

We hope you all had a great holiday season. We didn't. Something blew up and it stunk like crazy, but we still have no idea what it was, and Dr. von Haber Zetzer's not talking. We're not sure if that's because he's guilty or in shock, but either way, we're not prying an answer out of him any time soon.

The original title of this episode bugged me, so I changed it. I can do that. If you're worried the power might go to my head, well, just wait until you see your birth certificate.

You thought your job was hard, imagine being Narrator (or Narrator 2, really) for this boatload of Twinkies.

If our Narrator makes it through his contract without developing a neurosis (or cirrhosis), well, it's not our fault. Avocado yogurt.... avocado yogurt....

NOTE: Listen to the end for awesome trailers! It's true many people complain that Oz 9 is not only NOT educational, it may in fact "leach information out of your brain as you listen." (thanks, mom — real nice) We beg to differ. Did you know zebras were once called "hippotigruses" (hippotigri? whatever)? Think of how much you've learned about plants and space and maths and fugu and Sweden! Anyway, if we're making you dumber, I think you know exactly what Olivia would have to say to that. Because

I swear, if there's a skull and crossbones on it, this crew wants to eat it, marry it, or at least put it in the garage next to something flammable.

Written by Lee Shackleford of the awesome sci-fi audio drama Relativity, this bonus episode exposes you to yet more of Oz 9 that you were hoping to avoid. Is it possible an advanced alien species is coming aboard the ship? Well, yeah, I mean — they're in space. But, are they friendly? This is the Oz 9. What are the chances? HUGE thanks to Lee, who wrote AND produced this episode despite all our mostly unintentional efforts to thwart him. BTW, Lee is an amazing voice and stage actor, writer, and

We'd like to dedicate this second hiatus episode to our one fan in Zambia. To date, according to our stats, there have been 86 downloads in Zambia. We figure that's one fan who listened to every episode, including all the hiatus and bonus stuff, and to him, her, or them, we say a profound "thank you!" And the same "thank you" to everyone who listens. We know there's more important stuff you can be doing, like thinning out your spatula collection or arranging your vegetable garden in descending
