The JAT crew got a chance to return to Escape Velocity over the Memorial Day weekend and do a special live production in honor of the 40th anniversary of both Alien and the TV show Buck Rogers in the 25th Century (as you’ll hear, we reference some of the earlier adventures of Rogers as well). Basically, it’s a send up of every space opera story you know where a crew investigates a derelict spacecraft and mayhem ensues.

H.G. Wells’s classic “War of the Worlds” gets a Jabberwocky update as we tune in to a special radio broadcast in October 2018 learning of mysterious power outages and “seismic activity” in the Washington, DC area. Could this be related to strange gas eruptions on the planet Mars?
