As they both try and keep each other company during a very long 4.6 billion mile trip to Pluto! Here is a short trailer to tell you what you can expect over the next 22 episodes. Come join us and enjoy the trip!

Having crashed upon the surface of Pluto, Jemima and Pod are shocked to discover that nothing happening on the planet is what they were expecting. Soon Jemima finds herself battling sudden fame, political upheaval and an entire country brainwashed by Saranex five. Pod meanwhile, is about to discover what happens when you are surplus to requirements. ...and then a mysterious character from Jemima’s past reappears. With pastry! Welcome to the penultimate episode our fullcast cinematic scifi comedy podcast audiodrama; about a space engineer and a sarcastic AI on a 4 billion mile trip to Pluto to go turn off a lightbulb. Starring Laura England as Jemima Belafonte and Wayne Russell as Pod. http://www.cornucopia-radio.co.uk/pluto/

Jemima is now floating helplessly and untethered in deep space after Pod-Zero (who had gone mad chasing her for so long) tried to kill our heroic UK space engineer. Pod is trying to rescue her by liaising with everybody at UKSA, but they all seem to be at some big nationwide celebration and are all horribly drunk. So it now looks like their only chance of surviving this grave situation is by venturing into the smashed dark remains of Pod-Zero. Then trying to quickly land or crash upon on the surface of Pluto? ‘Pod to Pluto’ is a scifi comedy audiodrama about a space engineer and a sarcastic AI on a 4 billion mile trip to Pluto to go turn off a lightbulb. Starring Laura England as Jemima Belafonte and Wayne Russell as Pod.

Join Jemima & Pod as they spend a long day waiting for ‘Pod Zero’ to arrive, in a production clearly not ghost-written by Samuel Beckett. So can our existential search for meaning in this world be summed up by a five billion mile journey to Pluto to go turn off a lightbulb? Or is this just another case of us all ‘passing the time’ together? Whatever happens, one thing alone is clear. We are waiting for Pod Zero to come. Also... it better not kill us horribly when it arrives! Welcome back to our scifi comedy podcast audiodrama; as we get ready to enter the endgame. Just as we’re about to reach our final destination. Stay subscribed; as the situation on Pluto is about to take a number of shocking twists....

In the far future, #SocialMedia eventually became illegal once it was discovered that the constant stream of useless trivia literally scrambled your head! With studies showing that your brain after one month on #SocialMedia became more damaged than a bare foot on 3am Lego. But who is really going to stop our brave UK space engineer, Jemmima Belafonte from occasionally logging into her SpaceBook account this far out in deep space? Even if she still has to deal with the occasional internet troll; what could the harm be?

Somehow it’s the first day of spring in deep space and Pod is full of joy! Jemima however isn’t feeling the happiness and once she discovers the true reality of her engineering qualifications and the threat of a fresh cake from Janet appearing in the supply relay; she feels even worse. However she won’t have to worry about any of that soon, as she is about to face forcible eviction from the Pod! Along with her cardboard toolkit...

In the darkest depths of deep space (just past Uranus) Jemima and Pod find themselves coming across an ad-field. Which it turns out is similar to a minefield, but where as a minefield simply wants to kill you, an ad-field wants to instead beam adverts directly into your brain-hole to blow you away with irresistible bargains! It seems this strange occurrence is somehow linked to the gigantic star cruiser which they’ve also discovered and is now broadcasting a distress signal from someone called ‘Captain Harriet Belafonte’ Families! For people who fail at choosing friends!

Welcome back to Pod To Pluto, our comedy scifi audiodrama about a lonely space engineer on her way to Pluto to turn off a lightbulb. In the first episode of the new series, we find Jemima dreaming of saving the entire galaxy from the evil Lightbulbians. Meanwhile, Pod has come up with a number of interesting ways to celebrate their third glorious year travelling across the solar system together. So they’ve decided to reboot things by redesigning the Pod, buying a little nanobot and in five seconds they’re going to install a new DLC voice pack! This isn’t going to end well, is it?
