Wolf 359 - A podcast recommendation.

Having moved house a month ago, my modelling and wargaming stuff is all still boxed up in the garage. My aim is at some point to have a few games, as I can find space for a box of miniatures and terrain, but I can't really unpack all of my stuff for a while until decisions have been made regarding decoration.

I wanted to update and recommend this podcast: Wolf 359.

Via Wikipedia

 I just finished it. It ended up being about 60 normal episodes with a plethora of smaller episodes and a couple of bonus extra long ones.

The premise is that each episodes are the audio log of the communications officer on the USS Hephaestus: a space station run by Goddard Futuristics that is orbiting the star Wold 359. Crew of three. It begins with 15-20 minute episodes and they slowly grow in length and leave behind the format of communication logs as the story unfolds and gets bigger and bigger. And while it never stops being funny, it evolves from short, sitcom-esque episodes as a larger drama and story emerges.

It begins with hijinks and funny situations that one would think might happen on an isolated space station with three very different crewmembers. But at time goes on things happen, story develops, and it sucks you right in. 

I recommend it highly. In fact, I cannot recommend it highly enough. I have now searched out any other projects by the creators to see what else they are making.
