About this listen
What if President John F. Kennedy had survived and rocketed the Space Race of the 1960s into overdrive? And what if he was, maybe, not quite...himself?
Space: 1969 is a wild and outrageous sci-fi comedy from the mind of Emmy-winning writer Bill Oakley (The Simpsons, Futurama, Portlandia).
Nancy Kranich (played by Emmy-nominated actress Natasha Lyonne of Russian Doll and Orange Is the New Black) is a night nurse on an orbiting space station. But Nancy hates her job, is sick of space, and longs to find adventure and a safe place to smoke cigarettes that won’t blow everyone up.
But when Nancy gets caught up in an outer-space conspiracy involving President Kennedy (serving his third term), former vice-president Richard Nixon (now a miserable, forgotten lawyer practicing estate law in New York City), and an intergalactic object that could change the course of history, she gets way more adventure than she bargained for.
Can Nurse Nancy save herself, the Moon Colony, and the future of the entire United States of America?
Space: 1969 is a retro sci-fi comedy adventure that has to be heard to be believed!

Give this one a second chance
Clearly written by a boomer and well referenced. This space opera is a ride through the late 60's but in an alternative time line. Narration by President Nixon who never became president.
I started to listen to the audible three times and was about to give it a miss. Once I got through the first 20 minutes I was hooked. I can’t find any other audible books by Bill Oakley but have found he has written quite a bit for the Simpsons and Futurama

Enjoyable but story didn’t end!
I was enjoying this silly romp and then it ended! Maybe I missed something but it seemed to leave everything up in the air so that spoilt it!
