New Show from Gideon Media: Ask Your Father Feb 10, 2024

Show notes

We are so thrilled to bring you a new show from Gideon Media!!!!

Lem, a human, and Mikey, an A.I., are piloting the first ever faster than light speed ship when they find themselves twice as far as they meant to go, and without any fuel for a return flight. The two of them communicate with Earth using tiny faster-than-light-speed drives, which carry information for Mikey and questions for Lem from his kids. As they work together to solve the problem, they forge a friendship that could change the course of human history, all while trying to answer the question “how did this happen?” And more importantly… “Why?”

Written by Sean Williams

Directed by Jordana Williams

Featuring Rebecca Comtois, Kevin R Free, Rob Maitner, Barnaby Williams, Marlena Williams and Sean Williams

Music by Kent Williams
