Here is episode 1 of The Program, a show on the RQ Network.
The Program is set in a future in which Money, State, and God have been fused into a single entity. Each story explores ordinary people inhabiting this extraordinary world. And for them, it's not this future that's terrifying - it's our present.
These are KZbin versions of The Program original fiction podcast. Which you can find by searching for “The Program audio series” wherever you listen to your podcasts.

Is it just me or did this come out of completely nowhere?!?!?

The Program Audio Series is an existing series that I adore with ~31 public episodes so far. It's wonderful to see it here on the Rusty Quill Network, who I also adore. Can't wait for the increased exposure, evident by all the "Wait, what?" Comments already

As someone who already listened to it, is each story truly disconnected or there IS an overarching plot slowly moving behind the stories?

@Lance77am 2 ай бұрын

@drwer_on_tube9135 It really is largely disconnected. It's all centering around the The Program, but radically different perspectives, timeframes, views, etc. You'll start to hear consistent elements and beats, and I cannot say for sure that listening to it out of order would have the same effect, but it's been my experience that doing so would have no negative impact whatsoever.

@@Lance77am ok, I was just asking to find out if it was anything like tma season 1 (an anthology with a narrative that goes on behind the scenes becoming more and more prominent towards the end) or a true anthology without a overarching narrative. Got my answer, thank you

I am as confused as half the comments but I am definitely enjoying this.

"I could never imagine the world would just stand by". Those words hit Hard rn. I always told myself that unless one very specific condition occurred, I would never, Ever go to war. I would rather sit in prison for a decade than be conscripted. Unless. Unless it was to stop an abomination. Now an abomination is happening in the world and I don't even have the Option to go to war.

No idea what this is going to be, I subscribed for TMA/Protocol like a lot of people, but I'm in! This is basically The Circle if it was good. Gig economy on steroids.

This caught me by such a surprise... I have so many questions, but most of all, it struck me how Victor seems to be much older than his voice would suggest? This, coupled with the ominuous-sounding "alternative" Angelica (who sounds to have aged like an usual human would) mentioned really makes me wonder what happened to him. Did he volunteer to prolong his life? Was it possible because he is a "hero" of the system? Or maybe he was kept young as an ever-lasting symbol, to appear on the live shows and continue the legend of the Program's beginnings? After all, the hosts seem very confused by the state of world as it was before the Program, so maybe he was kept alive as a form of a propaganda? Gosh, I have so many questions, but I'm really excited to listen to the rest of the episodes!

Man it feels weird that I kind of want this world to be real, even if its gig based. It might just be that gig economy in our world is %100 exploitive, but if it somehow led to a world without rent, and only doing jobs I enjoy/suited me the best, I think I'd be ok with it.

I've been waiting searching to find a story built around an AI making a massive Positive impact to the world. Humans are too greedy, if there was a fair and balance AI at the top, a socialist fair and balanced world might be possible. But how would such a thing even begin?? Without it being the center of conversation, this first episode does an excellent job of explaining how The Program first became introduced to the world. I can't wait to learn more.
