The Adventures of Captain Radio

The words "The Adventures of Captain Radio" float above the silhouette of a planet with rings on a sunburst of blue and teal.

Set in the distant future, The Adventures of Captain Radio is a full-cast science fiction audio drama following the exploits of the masked hero Captain Radio, the alter-ego of Count Xavier of the planet Alpha Centauri. Along with his robotic sidekick Ace, Orion, and Andromeda, Captain Radio travels across the stars to fight the forces of evil and save the galaxy. Each episode is a love letter to the golden age of science fiction, combining retrofuturism, alt history, and an appreciation for the campy, pulpy sci-fi radio shows of yesteryear. If you like audio dramas with robots, ray guns, and rocket ships—this is the show for you.

Seasons 1 and 2 are available to listen to wherever you find your podcasts. New episodes of Season 3 start Dec. 7, 2025!
