Hi folks, Deej here - creator of Moonbase Theta, Out and our new queer supernatural audio drama, Waiting For October! You might have heard about it back when we were crowdfunding, or on our social media as we were gearing up for release, but now our monster story is out there, in the world for all to hear! And we’re hoping you’ll give it a try. 

I’ll be honest - it’s definitely a different kind of story from MTO, but there are also some similarities, and that includes a bunch of your favourite Base Theta voices. And we all spend some more time in Feelings Jail. 

The following is our story’s Prologue, which we released on Halloween in that feed. Today we also released Episode One, so if you like this, look up “Waiting For October” in your podcast app, subscribe, and you can find out what happens next! Enjoy, and keep watching the Moon … in whichever world you visit!

Three months after the broadcast from Base Theta (and beyond), we see how the world has been affected.

Transcript here: https://monkeymanproductions.com/2023/09/mto-s4-e20-transcript/

Thank you for listening to the last full episode of Moonbase Theta, Out, featuring what I think is our largest cast ever - Evan Tess Murray, Serena Rahal, Corey Spruill, Tom Zalatnai, Robin Regalado, Becca Marcus, Tal Minear, Dalia Ramahi, Leslie Gideon, Cat Blackard, Cass McPhee, M.J. Bailey, Tau Zaman, David S. Dear, Anjali Kunapaneni, Dallas Wheatley, Sarah Rhea Werner, Hazel Stapp, Shereen Lani Younes, Cole Burkhardt, Elissa Park, Alicia Atkins, Steven LaFond, NayMyo Win, Rissa Montanez, Anna Godfrey, Tina Daniels, Lisette Alvarez, Emma Sherr-Ziarko, Claudia Elvidge, Jen Ponton, Jen Ponton, Journee LaFond, Danyelle Ellett, Gabriel Tankeo, and Leeman Kessler. And various voices in the outro that were most of those folks and a few more. 

Written by D.J. Sylvis; Cass McPhee is our audio engineer. Our theme music is “Star” by the band Ramp; our cover art is by Peter Chiykowski. Music for the intro segment was “Extra Real News” ; music for the outro was "The Real Story"; both by Trace Callahan.

And that’s it, folks. That’s really where the story ends - there are four bonus minisodes to come, but those dive deeper into the characters that each is focused on, they don’t really push the plot anywhere new. The story, like Barnett Bell says about revolution, like what Bilbo Baggins says about roads … goes ever on, but that doesn’t mean it will all be told in the same way. I hope our little Moon tales stay with you, that you think your own thoughts about what comes next, maybe tell your own stories with a bit of Roger and Alex and Ashwini and Michell and Wilder and Nessa and Tumnus in the bones of them. Maybe one day I’ll find my own way to talk about them again as well. But in the here and now, we’ve reached the end … and I’ll say it one more time, thank you so much for listening. 

Our Exectutive Producers are Sarah Müller and Beka B, and our associate producers are Marty Chodorek, June Madeley , Timothy LaGrone, Marilyn Reid, Marissa Robertcop and Linda Boyer.

Thank you guys so much for your support, and helping and trusting us to bring this story to life. We love what we’ve done with it, and we hope you love it as much as we do.

As we bring this series to a close and thank you yet again for supporting us through it all, this is a great time to talk about how you can join us on our next adventure.

Or sign up for our mailing list to get our monthly newsletter and stay up to date on all the things at MonkeymanProductions.com. And of course our merch is still available if you need that Cas and Pol shirt! But most of all: we made it to the end, because of you. Thank you for listening. And, as always, keep watching the moon.

On Earth and the Moon, there are new voices, new chances, and new discoveries. But in the end, is there hope?

Transcript here: https://monkeymanproductions.com/2023/08/mto-s4-e19-transcript/

INTRO: Hey there, Moonbaseians! Deej here, and it’s time for the resolution of our two-part Moonbase Theta, Out series finale! This is it, another hour or so and you’ll have heard the rest of the story. Well, not really, of course - there’ll be an epilogue in Episode 20, four bonus episodes to come after that, and … after that a long, well-deserved rest. For me, at least, probably not for our folks on the Moon. But before any of that, slide forward to the very edge of your seat and keep your feet firmly planted - because it’s time! 

OUTRO: And that’s it, folks. That’s our series finale, the end … until the epilogue, bonuses, the stuff I said in the intro. But there’s lots of thank yous left before we let this episode go! We’ve mentioned the actors, we’ve mentioned the cover artist and composers who’ve worked on the show, we’ve mentioned our audio engineer though Cass deserves another shout-out for all his work this season! And we should thank Cass and Tina for their tireless efforts as my co-producers - this is a job no one person could have taken on. 

Finally, I want to thank not people, but other stories in this space that have meant so much during the creation of MTO. I want to thank Girl in Space and Pasithea Powder and Greater Boston; I want to thank Civilized and Ninth World Journal and Interference and Caravan and Seren and Far Meridian and Love and Luck and Midnight Burger and The Night Post and Vesta Clinic and The Beacon and … I can’t keep listing them all, we’d be here for another full hour, but thank you to all the bold, brave, engrossing, embracing, exceptional stories that have captivated and inspired us throughout our own creation. We’ve been lucky and happy and blessed to be a part of this with you.

JOIN US OCTOBER 1ST FOR THE EPILOGUE!

On Earth and the Moon, conflict looms with the megas; but on Base Gamma, another conflict takes priority. In the end, a voice is heard.

INTRO: Hey folks, Deej here. In case you’ve clicked on the wrong episode, you really want to catch up before this one - this kicks off the series finale of Moonbase Theta, Out. Five years, four seasons and two miniseries, a storyline even I couldn’t predict or really control - it all comes together from here. The story won’t finish today - there’s a second part, and then an Epilogue, and some bonus episodes - but you’re damn close. So fasten your seat belts, make sure you’re well-hydrated, and away we go. 

OUTRO: Thanks for listening to the first part of our series finale! That should give you a lot to think about until the next installment. Today, we wanted to send a more extensive almost-at-the-end thank you to our cast, every actor who has been a part of the show from just Leeman in those very first episodes, to the huge group of folks you hear now. It’s such a pleasure and a gift to work with these talented performers, to rehearse and revise and shape the characters with them. Please, go find and follow and listen to them everywhere they can be heard.
