Hi folks. Writer and executive producer Jess here.

The third and final season of The Strange Case of Starship Iris is taking a short hiatus.

August 28th we'll be dropping the final mini episode and then we'll be back with full-length episodes on September the 11th.

A lot has changed in the nine plus years we've been making this show.

Actors have moved, become parents, completed PhD programs,

changed their names, and in the case of Joe Chang, who played other Violet, created an extremely

cool new show of their own. Harthbound is a queer, folk musical audio drama and a post-apocalyptic

untelling of the Odyssey. The series follows Joe Chang's Odessa across the

Great Basin region of North America as she tries to get home to her wife, Penelope, encountering

strange and colorful characters along the way. If that sounds like your cup of tea, then cheers

because it's definitely mine. Come for hearing Telemachus actually pronounced the right way,

and stay for the affecting music and impeccable vibes.

Today we have episode one for you, but more are available right now.

If you like what you hear, follow Harthbound on your pod catcher of choice

and leave the show a review and a rating while you're at it.

Now here is episode one, Telemachus.

Thank you. is episode one, Telemachus. Arthbent, Episode 1, Telemachus. Arthbath, Episode 1, Delemachus.

Will she find her way back home? There's Vega.

See her?

On good nights like this, you can see Altair too if you follow that line of stars over.

It's a good night.

I found an actuator today that's only about half junk.
