Madison On The Air

Anticrastination is a comedy audio drama that follows a pair of people trying to reinvent themselves as they make a podcast (called “Anticrastination”) about reaching goals and getting organized—when things go horribly and hilariously wrong.

Kip is a former radio newsman desperate to restart his career before it’s too late. Free spirit DeeDee is trying to find a purpose for herself after years of seeking. They are joined by their inflexible sound engineer, Magnus, who feels like he’s wasting his life. Things get even more chaotic when a guest expert ends up staying longer than planned! We hear their train wreck of a show in each episode driven by their struggles with validation, relevance, and self-esteem. It's one part screwball comedy, one part parody, and one part heartfelt struggle for success.

There is an ever-present question that has puzzled and intrigued our world for centuries. Is there life on any of the other planets? Madison will answer this question as she steps in for the spaceman, Klaatu, visiting Washington D.C. in the early 1950s. Join us for this adaptation of the Lux Radio Theater’s presentation of the absolute sci-fi classic, “The Day the Earth Stood Still.” Is the spacewoman dangerous? Will science prevail over military might? Can a young boy and his mother show Madison that human beings are worth saving? Or will Gort end all living creatures on this planet? Repeat after me… “Madison, barada, nikto…”
