About this listen

Welcome to the show where 'Anything Could Happen' - a real play experience set in the far future where players have to solve dilemmas that have no simple answer, incomplete information & before they run out of time! We set the players against no-win scenarios that they have to decide on a solution typically within 20 minutes. The games are set in a sci-fi context that allows us to safely explore issues and topics in a way where we are free to think 'What If?'

  • Anyone Can Wake the Sleepers
    Feb 19 2026
    The senior crew of the UFR Exploration Vessel DSV Horizon's Edge is operating in the uncharted outer regions beyond known trade lanes. During routine scans, they detect a massive artificial structure drifting toward an exoplanet. The scans confirm the impossible: it's a Generation ship, launched from Earth centuries before Harmonic Drives were invented. A relic from the earliest days of humanities reach into the stars. In twenty minutes it will enter the exoplanet's atmosphere where gravity will tear it apart. Twenty minutes to save the sleeping passengers. No second chances. And of course, anything could happen...
