Electro-episoded in A.D. 2025

A madcap experiment in near‑future science fiction opens with Lieutenant‑Colonel Algernon Sidney St. Johnstone, a high‑strung officer whose mind is half‑wired and half‑delirious. In a cramped, cluttered apartment he fumbles with a copper wire and a mysterious “Local” device that seems to rewrite the very landscape outside his window, swapping mountain peaks for a phantom “Parker Pass.” The scene spirals into chaotic humor as Algernon battles invisible toxins, a slumbering valet, and his own garbled commands, all while the world of 2025 hovers just beyond his distorted perception.

The narrative balances sharp, witty dialogue with a subtle, almost O. Henry‑style twist that rewards a second listening. Its blend of quirky technology, absurd bureaucracy, and a protagonist whose frantic thoughts are as electrifying as the wire he manipulates creates a uniquely entertaining scientific‑fiction comedy. Listeners will find themselves both bewildered and amused, eager to see how the absurdity unfurls without giving away what lies beyond the opening act.
