InCo
Transcript
Hello and welcome to Prescribed Listening where we, the Vesta team, advise you on great audio drama to cure winter blues and summer purples.
If you’ve been having symptoms such as: believing in fairytales; coping really, really well with grief, or asteroid hyalosis. . . You should listen to InCo.
InCo is a vast science fiction adventure delivered in enjoyable microfiction chunks. It follows jaded information courier Nova, her peppy and loveable medical android SAWA and the strange, pretty boy she rescues from literal Space. It took me far too long to start listening to this show and it has now wrapped up its final season. If you like the Vesta Clinic for its exploration of alien biology and culture, you’ll love the worldbuilding in InCo. And if you like Vesta because of Sec . . . you’re going to adore SAWA.
[SEC: affirmative ping]
One of the other amazing things about the show is that every voice - alien, human, android - is done by one person. The level of talent is absolutely insane. Also the music is consistently brilliant.
Keep listening to hear the trailer for InCo and you can a link to the show’s website and socials in our show notes. Enjoy!
