Alpha 8 Audio Drama

This week, we're handing the mic over for a feed swap with The Madness of Chartrulean — a character-driven sci-fi epic for fans of Dune, Foundation, and Game of Thrones.A fallen messiah races to stop his own technology from dooming the world he meant to save — while facing alien invaders, political foes, and the collapse of his own mind.The Jhardeho Order named him messiah. He defected anyway. When Chartrulean chose progress over piety, he split the world in two — and now he's haunted by the cost of that choice, fighting to reconcile with the gods and kings he angered before the madness he created consumes him.Blending political drama, Shakespearean tragedy, and mythic futurism, The Madness of Chartrulean features a cast of 50+ voice actors from five continents, cinematic Dolby Atmos sound design, and an unflinching portrayal of mental illness — including CPTSD, anxiety, and DID. Written from a woman's perspective, the show is part of a growing wave of creators championing women and neurodivergent voices in sci-fi and fantasy.Vol. 1 is available now — 13 episodes, 8+ hours of story, plus bonus content. Vol. 2 is actively releasing.🎧 Listen to more: wherever you find podcastsA quick Alpha 8 update: Season 2 recording sessions are officially on the calendar, kicking off August 24th.
