Peter Galaxy, Interstellar Envoy
A full-cast comedy production recorded live at Convergence in Bloomington, Minnesota Peter Galaxy and his sidekick, Dr. Simon, used to be big stars on the radio. Now they’re just two retired actors playing cards on the front porch and riding herd on the grandchildren. But can these two old-timers find work for three hundred billion illegal aliens? Yeah, we wondered about that question too. We’ve always wondered what would happen if two of our favorite worlds were to collide. When veteran and Dr. Who alumnus the late Michael Sheard joined David Ossman of the Firesign Theatre (and the voice of Mark Time himself) on stage, we found out: the universe got funnier. That’s valuable information.

SpaceGirl: Downloading the Legacy
A full-cast comedy production from the Great Northern Audio Theatre Linda Kim Shelmerdine discovered her considerable powers during her hormonal years (the Sun was having similar problems then). But she read the superheroes’ guide books, and her years in 4-H helped too. Now fifty-nine, SpaceGirl is somewhat disillusioned with the way superheroism is viewed these days, both by the public and by other superheroes. But she takes her job seriously and enjoys the occasional vacations at her crater-side retreat on the moon. Her PR guys, the Hungarian Dwarf Parade, take her side at the hearings and fight for her when the lawsuits start, but there’s only so much they can do to keep her morale up. “As you´ll hear, there certainly are a lot of laughs in this one. It´s a very polished piece of work.”—Tom Lopez, ZBS Foundation

We join them many years later at a reunion, and it seems that they can’t seem to escape the influence of the Martians. “Good enough that if I heard it while driving, it would keep me in the car until it was over.
