Alpha 8 - A Sci-Fi Adventure Audio Drama

Hey there! It’s Stephanie, the creator of Alpha 8, bringing you another podcast you’ll want to binge this month. Give Me Away, takes body-swapping aliens to another level because in this world the aliens and humans cohabitate. Think Venum but instead, it's consensual body snatching or what some might call volunteering...

About Give Me Away

They call the spaceship that crashed in the Nevada desert “The Ghosthouse” because it screams—the screams of thousands of extraterrestrial political prisoners uploaded into its horrific mainframe. The only way to free them... is to transfer them into the bodies of humans willing to share their minds with an alien second consciousness. But who would volunteer for that? Graham Shapiro, divorced and adrift at age 50, is one of the first to raise his hand. Give Me Away follows Graham’s journey into a world of radical hospitality, one which will touch everything—and everyone—in his life.

We're excited to announce that we're heading back to the writer's room next month to start working on Season Two of Alpha 8.

Are you looking for a binge-able sci-fi show to listen to during your holiday travels, then I've got a treat for you.

It’s the 22nd century. The Apollyon virus has torn through the world and wiped out 75% of the population.

30 years after the first wave hit, most of the world is under one government: the International Conglomerate of Research Scientists, a group of politicians and scientists working to keep the world as safe as possible.

Drs. Theo Ramsey and Gabriel Larson work in the American ICRS headquarters in Atlanta. They have developed an effective vaccine for AVS, but the stakes to get the vaccine to the public are higher than either of them ever imagined.

In 2022, Apollyon was voted best sci-fi podcast at the Minnesota Webfest and best podcast at the Urban Media Makers Festival.

Two seasons plus two mini-series (Patient Zero and Chronicles) are available anywhere you get your podcasts. The third season is in pre-production and will be released in 2025.

If you enjoy movies like Contagion and Outbreak but need more humanity in your storytelling, Apollyon is for you.

Daniel can talk anyone's ear off about science and extraterrestrial beings. But he also has a sweet spot for rap music. He'll often pop in his earbuds and sing along to his favorite songs. Flip It by Trae Haze is at the top of that list.
