LA-based stand-up comedian Armando Torres.

Comedian Armando Torres Lends His Voice and Humor to The Adventures of Captain Radio

In four years of making The Adventures of Captain Radio, I don’t think we’ve ever laughed as hard as when we we sat down for a cast read-through of Chapter 2: The Orphan Moon. The thing is, it’s a dramatic episode, but guest star Armando Torres was so funny and deadpan in his role as 74391 that we were all in stitches. Christian Carvajal, who plays Orion, summed it up best when he remarked, “We’re doing Buck Rogers and then Garfield the Cat shows up.” It’s really a treat to welcome Armando, who is an accomplished L.A. based comedian and podcaster, to the world of Captain Radio.

Listen to Season 3, Chapter 2 to hear Armando in action and be sure to subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts to hear the grand finale, coming December 21!

Set in the distant future, The Adventures of Captain Radio follows 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, Andromeda, and Orion, Captain Radio travels the galaxy, seeking out injustice and defending the powerless. Listen now wherever you find podcasts.

Season 3 is the epic final season of The Adventures of Captain Radio. There’s still time to join our crowdfunding campaign and unlock an exclusive bonus episode. Become a backer at ko-fi.com/obscurestudios.
