About Jump Leads: A Scifi-Comedy Audiodrama Series

Meaney and Llewellyn are lost, navigating the Multiverse in a broken-down reality-hopping JumpShip, trying and failing to find their way home. Along the way they’ll face knife-wielding dinosaurs, break into an impenetrable space bank, and be mistaken for angels by a church full of religious robots. They might even become friends, too – in an infinite Multiverse, anything can happen…
