Magnetar: We Own...Your Future

magnetar

/ ˈmæɡnɪtɑː /

noun

a type of neutron star that has a very intense magnetic field, over 1000 times greater than that of a pulsar.

Genre: Sci-Fi • Mystery • Dark Comedy • Audio Drama

In a future where memory can be rewritten and truth comes in encrypted fragments, Magnetar follows the agents, analysts, and outliers working for a shadowy organization known only as The Company.

Each episode peels back another layer of a vast, interlocking conspiracy involving artificial intelligence, cosmic phenomena, and the quiet terror of not knowing what’s real.

Part mystery, part satire, Magnetar mixes sharp wit with speculative science—where bureaucrats debate black holes, androids suffer from existential dread, and cosmic anomalies are just another line item on the mission log.

From the creators at Shoestring TV, Magnetar stars Eric Carlino as Agent Pot Roast and Michael Cunningham as Agent Beef Stew, along with an ensemble cast of misfits navigating surveillance, sanity, and the stars.

RECAP:

On the last episode of Magnetar... Agent Pot Roast, Olivia and Roger encounter the mysterious and possibly cannibalistic "Echoes" of the Starfarer, a strange tribe of cryptic beginnings.

MAGNETAR — Day -128: NATUS

Deep inside the Echo Chamber, Olivia is given a recording—the voice of the mysterious Starfarer telling a story from Chora Beach’s past.

Then we go back.

128 days.

To the opening of the magnificent Aurora Pier Resort, where its first guests arrive expecting paradise.

They have no idea what is waiting for them.

Something was already there.

Something beneath Chora Beach.

And before their stay is over, the first people to walk through Aurora Pier will fall prey to something no one saw coming…

The snails.

This is where it began.
