New listeners, start here! We've cut together all four prologue mini-episodes; this is a chance for you to get to know the landing crew before they touch down in Episode One.
This Planet Needs a Name, a science fiction audio drama suitable for our times, was created by Evan Tess Murray, who also wrote and directed this episode. Original composition, sound design, and audio engineering are by Trace Callahan. Characters were developed in collaboration with their actors: Caroline Mincks as Zahava, Evan Tess Murray as Zei, Trevor Bean as Mandry, Alexander Doddy as James, Alexander Endymion Hernandez Diaz as Cyrus, Trace Callahan as Kolian, and Sawyer Greene as Quill.
Our first full episode is in production now. While we work on it, we want to invite you to join us on our discord server, where we’re building a community of people who believe in the power of stories and in each other. Get in touch on twitter at needsanamepod, or email [email protected] if you’d like to stop in and say hello.
This episode's script is available for those who find a transcript helpful.
More of the unnamed planet's story is coming soon. How soon? We wish we knew! Follow us to get updates as we go.

Bonus: Meet Corenna Zeigen
While we work on our full-length episodes, we've pulled together a few things you might enjoy! Here, Zei answers a questionnaire as part of her job interview to head toward the nameless planet.
This is written and performed by Evan Tess Murray, with audio engineering by Trace Callahan. The transcript is available as well. Sorry for the delay - unlike most of what we do, much of this was improvised rather than scripted, so preparing the transcript took a bit longer than usual!
