  • Presenting Oz 9, a sci-fi comedy podcast. Recently, Oblivity enjoyed a cameo in Oz 9 in the form of Officer Lowell. Listen to the episode here!

    If you're not listening to Oz 9, you're missing out on a wild and very unsafe ride. It's stuffed full of brilliant writing, excellent characters and more jokes and ideas than is quite frankly fair.

    About Oz 9

    'On a random Tuesday in 2142, 400 Oz ships, each carrying a cargo of 50,000 sleeping rich people, were launched from Earth by a corporation called Gated Galaxies. On a mission to seek out, terraform, and probably rudely exploit any planet they stumble upon, the Oz ships were a great way to get rid of not only some very rich idiots, but also their crews of petty thieves and thugs. This is the story of one such ship, the Oz 9, where the pods have already started going dark.'

    The featured episode is 82: Keep your knickers out of the biscuit tin,

  • A bonus episode before Season Two lands on Wednesday 16 November!

    When we last left aviatrix Amelia Bell (Justine Malone) in season one’s Revolutions in the Air, she was about to embark on a solo space flight, circumnavigating the ‘Sys. (That’s ‘solar system, for the uninitiated.)

    Christy had decided not to join her after all - but did give her the psychomimicellum plant to which she is psychically linked.

    In Amelia Bell’s Last Hurrah, we follow the plucky pilot on her long, lonely journey. Just a little time in the stasis chamber won’t do any harm… Will it?

  • A bonus episode, to whet appetites before Season Two lands on Wednesday 16 November!

    This episode sees the return of bickering interrogators Reginald (Alistair Nunn) and Horace (Ralph Watson).

    In Perfect Partners, the couple try to work out their differences in relationship counselling, facilitated by the unflappable Poppy (special guest Jen Sugden, co-creator of the Victoriocity podcast.)

    Poppy tries to get the pair to open up, but could it be that she’s not asking the right questions?

  • A very quick announcement that Season Two is incoming on Wednesday 16 November 2022!

    Return to Research Base Persephone on Pluto, and step into quantum chasms, photonic fuelling stations, abandoned shuttles, forgotten memories and luxury health spas.

    As well as catching up with the crew, you’ll meet familiar adversaries – and a few new ones too.

    Season Two has been along time coming – but we’re really proud of the result. There are seven full episodes, and a couple of surprises too!

    Thanks to everyone who supported us to make this brand new season, and thanks to all of you for listening. And let us know if you enjoy it – it really does make our day when people do that!

    So that’s Season Two; Wednesday 16 November; on Pluto! See you there!
