Thirst

Thirst is a horror-satire about exploitative entertainment in a crumbling world–think “Love Island” meets “Annihilation”–and the third and latest series on The Penumbra Podcast.

A young couple prepares to join a twisted reality TV competition, hoping to win a grand prize that promises safety and security in frightening times.

What would you do for love, $100,000,000, and a house far away from the sea?

Transcripts will be available with the public release of new episodes and include all required SFX attributions.

Early and ad-free episodes, production scripts, commentary tracks, blooper reels, livestreams with the creators, and much more are available on The Penumbra Podcast: SPECIAL EDITION.
