Feed Swap | Give Me Away
Hi listeners! It's Renee, and today we're doing something a little different with the feed. Now that Badlands Cola is complete (for now) we thought we would use this post-season downtime to share some really cool shows with you. Today, we're swapping feeds with a show called Give Me Away! Give Me Away is an ensemble science fiction podcast about a spaceship that crashes in the Nevada desert...and 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. I don't know about you, but this is the time of year where I crave bingeable content. Hook me in the first few minutes, and then throw me a pile of episodes that I can sink my teeth into, lose an afternoon to. And...oh wow, Give Me Away is 100% that. I'm so grateful that their team reached out to me because this...might be my favourite show right now? The pacing is impeccable, there's this beautiful prickly tension that just slowly ramps up throughout, and most of all, it does the thing that I personally think the best sci fi does, which is capture your imagination with some seriously human questions like...how much of your mind, body, and soul would you give up (honestly!) to save a stranger from the outer reaches of space? Give Me Away is an expertly produced show about radical hospitality, so give their pilot episode a listen now, and then make sure you check Episode 2 out at Gideon-Media.com, or wherever you get your podcasts. Enjoy! TRANSCRIPTS: Transcripts for Give Me Away are available at www.gideon-media.com/transcripts.
