In this scripted Audible Original, five mentally ill teenagers in an inpatient wilderness program during the apocalypse face not only the end of the world, but also the end of their prescriptions. Now, they have to figure out what’s real and what’s just a side effect, and keep their wits about them as they fight for their lives and their minds. Apocalypse Untreated is a multi-part, post-apocalyptic thriller brought to life with world class sound design, and performance. The story moves between real-time action, audio diaries, and archival therapy sessions as our central characters struggle for survival in a deteriorating world.

Apocalypse Untreated is created by Gaby Dunn, an actor, podcaster, LGBTQ activist and New York Times best-selling author and focuses on themes of survival, queer identity, and mental health. Also starring Chanel Ali (Girl Code), Jes Tom (Soojung Dreams of Fiji), Adam Faison (Everything’s Going to Be Ok), and a full cast.

Featured Article: Listen Like the World Is Ending with These Apocalyptic Audiobooks

Outside of that, apocalyptic and postapocalyptic stories take on all sorts of topics, twisting and turning into so many different genres and directions. Whether you love sci-fi adventures or prefer character-driven stories that reflect on real-world issues, this collection of listens has something for everyone.

Mostly I agree with Sabrina. It started as a media apocalypse farce and the adult or establishment characters stayed that way. The in-patients remained the main characters; their situations and meds were seriously portrayed while the dialogue was often witty and sometimes outright funny.
Indy was superbly voiced and held this together whereas the others were often spotty and the probable-Black character (bulimic) never seemed realistic. (Bad acting but also bad writing, eg they had him still intentionally vomiting 3 days after the last thing he ate)

Several observations:
strong sexuality was expressed by the first 3 girls along with frustration with their meds (“I can’t cum no matter how hard I try”, “hypersexual”. Admitted just for being lesbian.). Mini-spoiler: I don’t think the writers could visualize lust or romance and absolutely anything heterosexual so not much comes from these implications . It’s not “raw” just crude. I think the modern media culture of lots of cussing, rude behavior and sexism but no sexuality is a distorted censorship. Maybe not disappointing as “mush” (as preadolescents used to call it) isn’t for everyone. Close relationships are absent here. These characters are Darwin Award candidates if that’s still a thing.

They take a swing at right-wing media early on but it’s not pervasive in following episodes. Politics probably run the other way: they repeatedly demonstrate how leftist culture and entitlement is consistent with mental illness. It’s a subtle indictment throughout. (Also demonstrated are the three fundamental principles of modern medicine: it’s done for the money, the patient is not the boss and the treatment is designed to keep the illness chronic/never cured.)
The possibilities for a new value system are discussed only briefly in later episodes and only existentially.
This podcast should be a light listen, it’s fun if you don’t take it seriously or have high expectations

Some good parody and dialogue but….

Nice cast and sounds. Some people try to find gasoline, water and food, mental patients meds - seems like at the regular rave party.

I had fun.

Came here after Gaby mentioned it on her other podcast JBU, and I'm glad I did! The premise had me hooked from the start and it was nice to see some depictions of mental illness coming from someone who actually took the time to understand and do them justice. Knowing Gaby's background, I knew this would be funny, but I didn't expect to also fall in love with the characters and be fully invested in them after only listening for a couple of episodes! Finished it in one sitting and I only wish that there was a second season I could binge!

Worth a Listen!

The story started a little slow, I wasn’t sure I was going to keep listening but it got very interesting after the asteroid. I was really able to connect with the characters personalities that were portrayed perfectly in my opinion, it really helped paint a picture of what everyone looked like, it was very entertaining and it left me wanting more, it made me really sad to hear the end credits. So I ask to the author and producer, Could you please make a part two?

I NEED A PART TWO

More than 40 million people in the US take prescription meds just to live. Chances are you know someone who takes anti-depressants, statins, or diabetes medications. Now imagine that supply of medicines was completely cut off. For me personally, that thought is pure panic. Now imagine being cut off from the meds thar balance your brain chemistry. That’s this podcast series. Fantastic concept and performance, with clear separation between the characters. I thought some of the characters to be unsympathetic, but given a chance they were ok. And isn’t that the big question? Would we give people who depend on these meds to live any chance at all? Major points for making me think through that question. Give this a shot if you like post-apocalyptic series that make you think.

Intriguing take on post-apocalypse
