FIRST TRANSMISSION Space Holes, Book 1

Reams of paperwork, tasteless breakfast cereals, and corporate branding--what else would you take to space? With his natural ease and a large dollop of deadpan silliness, Scott Brick takes the listener on the maiden voyage of the GP GALLANT two hundred light-years into the cosmos in search of untapped, uncharted sales territories. As the crew of misfits stumble upon an alien civil war, they are, of course, congratulated by the corporation for having signed their liability waivers and reminded that "evacuation is the same as resignation." Brick excels at giving the snarkiest voice possible to the onboard robot, which is relentlessly ready with useless information and biting put-downs. An equal opportunity satire of technology, economics, HR departments, and all the "space" in between. B.P. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: FEBRUARY 2024]
