Hey Friends! This week, we’re ecstatic to introduce you to Aplha 8, a brand new science fiction podcast from our friend Stephanie Elie.

Alpha 8 After a mysterious entity named Alpha 8 crash-lands on Earth, the NARB (National

Anomaly Resolution Bureau) is thrown into turmoil, while lead researcher Michael and his team

scramble to determine if Alpha 8 is a friend or foe. As he embarks on a daring mission to

communicate with the alien, he uncovers secrets that could challenge the NARB's authority.

However, Michael’s efforts are cut short when Alpha 8 escapes, and he is reprimanded for

breaking protocol. 

Meanwhile, back at home, the Peterson family faces upheaval when Alpha 8

assumes the role of Mom! Alpha 8’s attempts to blend into the family raise suspicions,

particularly with Daniel, who notices something is off. As tensions mount new alliances form,

and hidden threats emerge both at the NARB and back home. The Peterson siblings start to

piece together a disturbing truth, setting them on a path that could change everything they

thought they knew.

This fun and refreshing body-swap dramedy harkens back to the heyday of family adventure films like E.T., Hook, and The Goonies. The scripts masterfully showcase the kind of inequality faced every day by working mothers, and allows for the charming band of kids in the cast to ultimately save the day. It’s an incredibly fun time from start to finish, and I genuinely hope you’ll take the time to listen to the entire thing.
