I really enjoyed that video. I'll have to catch the broadcast at some point. I liked that scientist quite a bit.

Great! The scientist is a Canadian actor and a friend called Joe May. He's writing a lot, now, and doing a lot of regular voice work for the games industry but you can catch him in a small role in the BBC's sitcom Episodes.

The broadcast is linked above as an MP3 to make it easier for Hubski folk to listen to. One of the suggestions we got was to provide episodes as downloads since listening to a schedule was sooo 20th century. We always intended to do so but thought about scheduling broadcasts first for the exclusive thrill and retro chic.

Ah ok. Is there an archive of mp3s, or does that go against concept?

How did this all come together, if you don't mind my asking?

Edit: This kind of reminds me of Frisky Dingo and Archer. I really like those shows.

No archive yet, as we have only produced the first concept episode. In the end I think we'll make them much shorter to release them more regularly.

The whole project started as a pitch and script for a TV series. As it developed, we started producing more content to sell the pitch and while waiting for things to happen became increasingly proactive in producing it. In the meantime, transmedia happened. That felt like a viable model for the story so we're working towards a self-produced project.
