Through time and space with Benedict Breadfruit

Benedict Breadfruit is a traveling troubleshooter with an unusual talent for solving the galaxy’s strangest problems—and explaining them with an even stranger pun. From a dying intelligent lichen and a robot headed for an acid bath to space lice, protected pumpkins, and alien methods of telling time, each brief episode sends him to a new world with a new absurdity to untangle.

Along the way, Breadfruit encounters eccentric planets, baffling customs, interstellar regulations, and creatures whose appearances are far less important than their personalities. His son, Junior, occasionally joins the journey, while scientists, officials, kings, and aliens all turn to Breadfruit’s inventive mind and linguistic mischief. Ideal for listeners who enjoy classic science fiction served as a rapid-fire series of comic sketches, this playful voyage through time and space favors wordplay, bizarre situations, and delightfully groan-worthy solutions.
