When a family’s decision to gather for Christmas sends them into the heart of a storm in the remote Pacific, they wind up marooned on a fantastic island that tests each of them in ways none could ever have imagined.

Loosely based on the classic novel The Swiss Family Robinson, Hidden Island is the story of Colin, Isabel, and their kids, Jake, Emilia and Leo, a typical American family thrust into an extraordinary adventure full of wonder and mystery.

Over the course of their journey, they’ll have to survive without the comforts of home and learn that their true strength comes from being a family united.

Our current favourite review: "The Program is more than an audio drama ("radio drama" if you're old school) - it’s a thought experiment examining the tradeoffs between different economic and political systems (capitalism, socialism, communism, hybrid models) challenging the listener with an uncomfortable question: Would you rather live in a free society, or a fair one? The show uses speculative sociology to blur the line between utopia and dystopia, making listeners question their own reality (literally - some stories are set in a simulation). But for all its big ideas, the series never forgets the emotional core that makes it resonate. This is smart, grounded, slice-of-life sci-fi in the tradition of Octavia Butler, Ursula K. Le Guin, Ted Chiang, and Black Mirror - and all hail the algorithm that recommended it!"

April 15, 1865. President Lincoln is dead and the country in turmoil.

Secretary of War Edwin Stanton takes control, determined to bring the assassin to justice—but the hunt for John Wilkes Booth isn’t all that grips Stanton.

Lincoln’s successor, Vice President Andrew Johnson, is likely to bend to southern interests and undo the very progress for which Lincoln died. Edwin Stanton must employ every bit of political wile he can muster to secure the future of the freed slaves, and the nation.

Consumed by his conviction, Stanton will betray his friends, his honor, and the very constitution he is sworn to protect, all to steer the country towards justice.

Ethan escaped a time loop. He has no idea how.

Mentally decades older and haunted by the things he did to survive, freedom means returning to the same quiet town, where the same people smile their same smiles, blissfully unaware of what happened. Unaware of what he knows about them.

Through fractured therapy sessions, a haunted inner voice, and chilling encounters with people he once knew, Ethan quietly begins dismantling the town's darkest secrets before they destroy him first.

A slow-burn psychological horror about guilt, survival, and the ugliness hiding behind ordinary lives.

From the creator of Bunker 8.
