I absolutely love this! What a great idea. It is a perfect homage to the classic radio shows. My favorite part might be the sound effects, especially the slug trail of the bartender. Definitely looking forward to more Spaaaaaaaaaaaaaace Carrie! Also loved Quiet. Just all around a great show and awesome production.

This is SOOOO hilarious, and so well done! It's like Garrison Keeler hooked up with Pigs In Space and had a baby! I loved it.
I love how everything is prefaced with "space" and I love how the dude walks into the bar and sucks the metaphorical air out of the room, with a fabulous sound effect of the record scratching to a stop. Seriously, you guys must have had so much fun putting this together. Resteeming for good times' sake.
Thanks!
It is indeed a lot of fun, and Carrie did great with the sounds. I'm working on the second episode now. :D
I'm sure it's just going to melt into a steeming pile of inside jokes ;)
Stay tuned!!
Chris, your voice acting is amazing! I loved all the accents you did, especially the pirate one. And the Bronx one was great. Nice job! Let me know if you guys need help on another project. I'd love to participate. I can probably conjure up a few accents if needed. French, British, Russian, Scottish...I'd need to do some polishing, but could probably hack it. I won 1st place in high school for a play that was strictly Irish. So I can do that one too. That was many years ago....but I think I know how to do it still.
Ha ha. I could do evil, ditsy, sweet and sincere, kind, heartless. Whatevs. Work me in, baby.
I am on discord throughout the day, most days. Tuesdays are actually pretty good for me. I could do some sound bytes too. I don't know what version you'd like, does mp4 work?
Also, maybe a bit of the script would help, so I know what kind of character to get into. Ooooh, goodie goodie. This could be super fun.
One last thing, I'm PCT. So noon UTC may be tricky, as that would be like 5 am my time, and I have to get kids off to school a couple hours after that. What about 4 or 5 UTC? Is that too late???
Also, have you thought of posting on d.tube or dlive? I know d.tube tends to upvote his regulars (of which I am), and dlive will at least earn you curation from his site.
evil, ditsy, sweet and sincere, kind, heartless - so you will be playing my ex-wife. Check!
Personally I wont post on dtube even if it ever HAD completed one single upload of the two or three times Ive tried over the past few months, because 25% beneficiary cut is highway robbery, and then to not even pay for the IPFS nodes with that income, causing all your videos to disappear, completely deleted from the free IPFS servers they try to use which stream terribly here on 100mb cable and never ever ever complete an upload. You video is flat gone in a few weeks, leaving an empty shell of a post unless you edit on day 6 and put in youtube there, is just a waste of my time.
As for live streaming, we simul-stream 24/7 full HQ stereo live hosted video to youtube live, twitch tv, rtmp capable players like VLC or embedded web players, on steemstar.net and audio via the shitty mono/simulated stereo discord voip driver that discord chat rooms provides because people insist on listening to shit quality in discord rather than watch our glorious webcam feeds, on screen information and show supporting stuff like music covers and videos and web pages and all. As far as I know, dlive does not consume our pro grade rtmp backend, so its useless to us for the network.
Anywhooo, come be on the show. If our host deems it acceptable, and let's get this show on the road!
Oh, I forgot to tell you...I AM your ex wife. Bwa ha ha ha!
I get the d.tube drama. I don't have any problems with disappearing video links thus far, but I haven't been broadcasting that long. I have had problems with buffering tho. So I automatically include youtube links on all my d.tube posts. I hear a lot of complaints about the 25% tax. I'm at the stage where I still just appreciate the publicity and will take it for what it's worth, but on some level, I guess I'll be grumpy too. At some point I'd like to do a live podcast or something like what the cool kids are doing on youtube and discord. I've seen your show. Some people know how to do it. Others don't. I like yours. You are very articulate, passionate, and entertaining.
I'm excited to get the chance to work with you!
I think @carrie is just going to have me do sound bytes for now, and she'll work them in at will. But at some point soon, maybe I can bug you for advice on how to get a good show going? How many people do you simul-stream? I don't really get all of those complexities of linking all the interfaces to one show. It's probably easy, but I've never done it, and my discord channel is in its infancy anyway. As is my youtube channel. Seriously. Still in diapers over here.
But anyway, looking forward to working with you in some form. Even though I know you probably hate me because I played devil's advocate for grumpy cat. Meow.
Second, I think you might just be about to become the next mrs ex cork. We discussed potential roles for you in a show planning meeting tonight and well, space might get a lot colder when you show up, exie dearest... ;)
Let me see, right now, top of mind, um, I think its 14 or 15 shows now? Pretty much every day of the week we have a couple-few hosts on the air, and run recorded episodic replays in between round the clock, unless the bot takes a dirt nap as it is sometimes prone too. Tech is gonna tech, after all.
As for the rest, I actually am in my chair for the 27th hour since my last 3 or 4 hour sleep and I actually think I never actually ate anything at all today. Cant even remember. Every day is like this for me, running all the international ops I run for work and here on steem 24/7... point being yes, id love to get you hosting on steemstar. then the tech is largely handled for you. As long as you can run Open Broadcast Server (OBS) on your laptop or computer, we can televise you.
But one step at a time. We've got soundbites to make! I got my next episode script tonight. You aren't in it yet, but I think you arrive in episode 3. We'll see, so don't change that channel, and stay tuned!
It was like being back to the future watching black and white screne with all those classic theme style Marilyn Monroe. I can see your hard work to bring the entertainment into another level in this platform.. Well done @carrieallen
Really enjoyed the radio show. Could this be considered a metaphorical story about the STEEM community and its drama? Maybe I am reading too much into this story. I dub this show...
And yes, it could be considered that. In fact, as the episodes continue to be born, no doubt will more and more inside jokes unfold. 😉 Capt'n Cork and his trusty robot sidekick are introduced next episode. It's gonna be a wild ride! LOL!

Thank you!
LOL! The slug trail was so gross and PERFECT! LOL!
Working on this week's show now. So... many... sound effects... 😳
You are welcome to use anything you want/find in my blog.
Maybe just add when my radio show airs... Then folks can tune in to hear it (if they wanna).
My show is
🚀Mission Control🚀
LIVE every TUESDAY 12 AM UTC
on the SteemStar Network.
Watch/listen live on SteemStar.net and play with us in Discord!
Also, maybe a little something about me on the lookout for writing and voice acting collaborators. 😍
Thank you again and again!
hey it debuted on my birthday! and my nickname is space.... hmmmm is dis a co inky dense?

Woohoo! We were talking about using you! I'm glad you volunteered.
So... are you active in Discord at all? What time is Tuesdays 12 AM UTC for you?
Are you able to record sound bites and send them to me?
Do you see yourself as ....evil? Or could your voice portray that?
Or... perhaps a more friendly, ex-love interest?
Everything is possible!
You're practically being written into the next script... 😎
Ha ha. I could do evil, ditsy, sweet and sincere, kind, heartless. Whatevs. Work me in, baby.

First off, that cat can go play in traffic.

This episode was SUPER cool, and obviously a ton of work!
Show our show host @carrieallen some love, everyone!
I really enjoyed the show, this section was really inspired - took me right back to my youth.
#thealliance
I'm so glad!
Be sure to look for this week's episode. Captain Cork is being introduced. 😎
Now that I can't wait to listen to. 🤣
It was like being back to the future watching black and white screne with all those classic theme style Marilyn Monroe. I can see your hard work to bring the entertainment into another level in this platform.. Well done @carrieallen
Thank you so much!
It IS a lot of work, but when it's so much fun it's hard to call it that. 😍
Absolutely awesome, thrilling, exciting.
It did forsooth take me back to the future. Love it!
Please reply to this comment so that I can ex post facto adequately reward this fine effort in my own imitable way.
😄😇😄
Yay! The pilot episode! A very good place to start. 😍
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. They get better (my acting is quite awful at first...) and they get a bit longer too. But always fun!
Can't wait until you get through them all!
Really enjoyed the radio show. Could this be considered a metaphorical story about the STEEM community and its drama? Maybe I am reading too much into this story. I dub this show...
Pirate Squirrel Approved
Thank you, Sarge! 😍
And yes, it could be considered that. In fact, as the episodes continue to be born, no doubt will more and more inside jokes unfold. 😉 Capt'n Cork and his trusty robot sidekick are introduced next episode. It's gonna be a wild ride! LOL!
