Introducing: BOOM

02/03/23 • 42 min

We want to share another sci-fi drama we think you’re going to love.

BOOM is podcasting’s answer to Stranger Things. Set in the late 90s, the show transports you back to an era of CDs, AOL and Blockbuster – but with a dystopian twist.

The story follows Jim Yang, an employee at Enron, one of the world’s then-biggest tech companies. They have one aim for the new millennium: to control the internet. But one day, Jim receives an email from the future that will turn his world upside down and bring Enron crashing to the ground.

Starring It’s A Sin’s Omari Douglas and two-time Olivier award-winner Sharon D. Clarke, this is an edge-of-the-seat thriller you don’t want to miss.
