KOLD is a new serialized comedy podcast about aging, nostalgia, and big, goofy dreams.
In this episode, Eleanor dreams of finding millions of listeners for her station, KOLD Radio, and bringing 1940s-style radio dramas back to the mainstream. But right now, she's only losing money, listeners, and broadcasters. It's her last chance to save the station, so she's throwing together everyone she has left, including science reporter Poppy, actor Beibo, and young foley artist Walt; bringing in Celtic music diva Mary and her husband/manager Joe as potential investors; and asking them to listen to an epic radio drama about Brock and Sonya's dystopian romance, complete with advertising jingles. But will she be able to handle the difficult personalities of talented people, and the mysterious plans of the Narrator?
Thank you for taking a chance on our very first pilot episode. Podcasting is an enriching, but new experience for all of us in the creative team, so this is a work in progress. Future episodes will be more polished!
