About Around the Sun

From the publisher's feed

A scripted, episodic audio drama that explores human connections, made and missed, with an existential flare (and an all-star cast!). Whether consumed together or independently, the comedy, tragedy, and soul of Around the Sun embraces one character’s assertion that, “We’re never alone… even if it feels like the opposite is often true.” The anthology series is created by Brad Forenza, and produced via remote technology throughout the pandemic, and onward.
