Oz 9

Hey, no one can accuse this crew of good taste in food, decoration, home furnishings, friends, leisure pursuits, career choices....

You get my point.

But there is one thing we know REALLY well, and that's good entertainment, particularly good science fiction. So trust us when we say, LISTEN TO THIS TRAILER.

Voyage Media, who brought us Sanctuary, are at it again with Hard Drive, a story about inheriting someone's memories - and what happens when memories of your grandpa "courting" grandma aren't the most horrifying things in there.

Priah Ferguson (Stranger Things) stars in this thriller about global population control conspiracies, digital memories, family, and Doing the Right Thing. Brought to you by the Neese twins, producers of Netflix's Umbrella Academy.

Enjoy the trailer, then check out Hard Drive wherever you get your podcasts!

Right, don't tell your parents we suggested this, but we kinda think the title of this episode would make a hell of a Halloween costume....

Ahem.

The away ship is basically nestled in the Oz 9's armpit, the ship's assassin is expiring faster than yesterday's dairy-based leftovers on the back seat of a hot car, the crew have to figure out how to hijack their own ship without weapons, strategy, or sufficient intellect to stay out of a silk tunnel when wearing pointy shoes, and it's TUESDAY.

Also, that's the last time I let Cpt. Jessie write the show notes.

Just listen. You'll figure it out.

Hello? Anybody out there?

Oh, yeah, hey. It's been a minute. Soooooooo... where were we?

Right. When last we left our crew, they had managed to make it on the Maggies II and III and blast off from Planet Bob. Just barely before Planet Bob sort of ... blasted. Now that word feels funny. Blasted.

Question is, did the ships and their contents survive the explosion? Well, considering this episode is, what, 26 minutes long, I'm gonna go with "probably," or this is gonna be a hella awkward silence.

If Nattertop and Phil, the spiders aboard Maggie II and III respectively, survived, they certainly have their work cut out for them. Assuming, of course, the spiders plan to heal the crew ...

Yes, you read that title correctly. We have a profound respect for gerbils up here and won't hear a word against them. If you take issue with that, or indeed with Rodentia in general, well, we would remind you that the characteristic that defines Rodentia is a "single pair of continuously growing incisors in each of the upper and lower jaws,"* so let THAT keep you awake at night.

And that podcast you heard at the top of the show? Mission: Rejected. Make sure you check it out and give it five stars and all that good stuff.

Look, when your life is in the hands of someone who only recently gave up huffing glue, you keep your will updated and hope for the best.

Such is the situation our four guests find themselves in, but hey, they agreed to be part of this season of I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Off This Toxic Planet, so on their own heads be it, really.

Dr Theo (swoon) has sabotaged their escape "plan" for purposes that are hazy at best and really f*&king stupid at worst, and now the crew are stuck on a planet that's trying its celestial best to kill them.

Will they survive? More importantly, will IaCGMOTTP be renewed for another season? Until next time, Space Monkeys, go get some sun. Really, you're looking a little peaky.

Thanks as ever to the wonderful Mission: Rejected podcast for lending us their voices and talent and not immediately sending us a Cease & Desist order after reflecting upon their choices. (They recently did a live show — you can see the hilarious video here: https://youtu.be/KpGsFitlbS4?si=CGOg7_CIsKj2LRRo.)
