Oz 9

Comedy Fiction, Fiction, Science Fiction

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 those ships – the Oz 9 – and its tiny crew of hopeless incompetents. So far, they've been in space half an hour and several hundred people are dead. So... bright future, clearly.

  1. episode one: What the f&#* is that smell??

    Episode 1

    Show notes

    HEY! HI! If you enjoyed this episode (and yes, I know, you probably haven't heard it yet, hush), you'll be thrilled to know it's also a COMIC BOOK. Which you can BUY! https://oz9podcast.etsy.com

    On an otherwise unexceptional Tuesday in 2142*, Gated Galaxies fired off 400 of its Oz 8000™ ships, each with 50,000 “resting guests” tucked into stasis pods, plus a skeleton crew of up to half-a-dozen total no-hopers.

    It was a win-win for G2, as they’re known, as the Oz 8000 model was about to be declared “unfit for journeying to the nearest 7-Eleven, much less interstellar space” and recalled. G2 had a very large fleet of the 8000s, and a slight head start on the recall, as they’d paid off the head inspector to delay her report by promising the ships would be stripped and sold for parts. Instead, the ships were spit-shined, outfitted with some black market YugoPods™, and space aboard quietly sold to very very rich people on the promise that somewhere up there, screamingly wealthy and privileged lives away from the riff raff of Earth were to be had.

    To their credit, there was a lot of screaming, so they had that right.

    This is the story of one of those ships, the Oz 9, and the utterly futile attempts of its crew to fulfill its stated mission: to deliver the passengers safely to their new, terraformed planet. At its unstated (and unknown) mission – to make Gated Galaxies even richer by doing some sneaky, underhanded and occasionally homicidal things – it was a massive success.

    Have you ever thrown the last of your milkshake out the car window, only to have it splat on the windshield of the car behind you? OK, imagine doing that with liquified human remains, in space, where there are no windshield wipers. Or gas stations with handy squeegee things. What happens next? You might get a really irritated comms call from the next ship in line, who are, incidentally, also about to hit you.

  16. Bonus: Deep breath and follow the doors Bonus

    Show notes

    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.

    You're listening to:

    • Richard Sherburn as Leet
    • Aaron Clark as Ben
    • Shannon Perry as Olivia and
    • Richard Nadolny as your Narrator

    So I've been re-doing these show notes all morning, and I'm only up to ep 14.5. I wish I could doodle...

  17. episode fifteen: Heroic Running!

    Episode 15

    Show notes

    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.

    You've been listening to:

    • Tim Sherburn as Colin and Head 2 or “Emily”
    • Bonnie Brantley as Jessie
    • Eric Perry as Joe and Head 1
    • Aaron Clark as le Bichon Frise
    • Richard Cowen as Leet
    • Shannon Perry as Olivia and Madeline and
    • Introducing June Clark Eubanks as Glenda
    • Richard Nadolny, is your Narrator

  18. episode sixteen: We are not breathing the passengers

    Episode 16

    Show notes

    '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.

    Featuring the talents of:

    • Bonnie Brantley as Jessie and Donna
    • Tim Sherburn as Colin and Head 2
    • Eric Perry as Joe, Head 1, and Mr. Southers
    • Richard Cowen as Leet
    • Aaron Clark as le Bichon Frise
    • June Clark Eubanks as the Albatros
    • Shannon Perry as Madeline and Olivia, and
    • Richard Nadolny as your Narrator

  19. episode seventeen: So the deed could not be done

    Episode 17

    Show notes

    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?

    You've been listening to:

    • Aaron Clark is le Bichon Frise
    • June Eubanks is the Albatros and Glenda
    • Bonnie Brantley is Jessie and Donna

    • Tim Sherburn is Colin and Emily
    • Richard Cowen is Leet

  20. Bonus: Between the wormhole and the Rinse McGoo Bonus

    Show notes

    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.

    • You've been listening to:
    • Eric Perry as Joe and Head One
    • Tim Sherburn as Colin and Emily
    • Bonnie Brantley as Jessie
    • June Clark Eubanks as the Albatros
    • Aaron Clark as le Bichon Frise
    • Richard Cowen as Leet
    • Shannon Perry as Madeline and Olivia and
    • Richard Nadolny as your Narrator.
    • Guest starring Mark Restuccia as C4 and Stooch

    This mini-episode fits in a wormhole somewhere between episodes 16 and 17. Or maybe 17 and 18. Or maybe 4 and 42, who knows?
