Alien Robot Space Jesus From The Future is a surreal and irreverent sci-fi comedy about a well-meaning but bewildered time-travelling saviour who arrives on Earth hoping to fix humanity, only to be met with indifference, bureaucracy, and a media circus. As he stumbles through job centres, detention cells, and diplomatic summits, his mission to stop the world from destroying itself becomes increasingly farcical. Skewering political theatre, messiah complexes, and the absurdity of modern life, this radio play blends dry satire with a healthy dose of cosmic futility.
