It's 2220. The future is just as stupid as today, but with space travel. Our two-co-captains serve on the barely spaceworthy ship Zib, a surveyor vessel that locates valuable materials for mining and claims them for Earth. Our not-so-intrepid crewmembers find themselves in ridiculous situations and often have no idea WTF they're doing, even when they think they do. We never said they were heroes.
Show creators Charlynn Schmiedt and Phillip Gilfus preview The Zib's Misadventures in Spaaaace, an audio drama where the future is just as stupid as the present, but with space travel. In this series primer, they discuss the show's creation, what things are like in the show's universe, and how they're feeling as they're about to launch a show they've been working on for nearly two years.
