The Zeta Family
Publisher's Summary
This entirely fictional (and entirely hilarious) immersive audio drama features performances by Kevin Nealon (Zeta Doug), Natasha Lyonne (narrator), and Amy Goodmurphy (Katie).
Set on a large ranch in rural upstate New York, it’s early days for the eccentric group of people who call themselves "The Zeta Family" - quite possibly the next big cult phenomenon.
Our protagonist, Katie, is an aspiring reporter who has decided to infiltrate the compound, and her future success as a journalist depends entirely on her ability to win the confidence of Zeta Doug, the likable spiritual leader of the group.
He’s like a cross between Hunter S. Thompson and George R. R. Martin, with a little too much sci-fi in his head and acid in his blood stream. Like all good cult leaders, Doug is elusive and mysterious, and Katie quickly begins to wonder if this cult is truly just a gnarly collection of weirdos hanging out in the woods, or is there something else going on here?
This product features dynamic multi-cast performances, musical scoring, and immersive sound design.
Note: The Zeta Family contains explicit content.

In sports, everybody loves redemption stories, the underdog who no one believes in but through sheer hard work wins it all. But no one tells the stories of the players who work hard and don’t make it. In pro football, 53 guys get on the roster. Ten make it to the practice squad. And then there’s the 64th Man - that’s Billy Logan (Cena), who seems to always be one spot from glory.

Doug wasn’t sure whether he should trust Satan. The red flag was that he said he was Satan. But the deal was good: Listen to Satan’s story in exchange for some donuts. And Doug only half-fulfilled his part of the bargain. But maybe he should have listened better, because during his friend Bryce’s next scheme (theft with light to moderate treason - the usual), Doug and the rest of his friends - Lulu (the fun one) and Charlene (the not fun one) - end up with a powerful artifact, a small metal cube with world-ending power that Lulu decorated with bunnies.

Samantha is a professional seductress and con artist with a heart of gold. If she talked about her work, she’d tell you she only pilfers organs for medical research and that she only takes one kidney, and she only steals those kidneys from dishonest people. It’s hell on her social life. Abe is the doctor and Sam's partner in crime. He isn’t much of a criminal. Except for the kidney stealing. But he’s using that money to fund his research that he anticipates will be able to cure diabetes. So, all for a good cause...? You decide. Of course, it's hell on his social life.

When the history of horror comics was written, one name stood and still stands above the rest: EC Comics. With equal parts suspense, gore, camp, and revenge, the triumvirate of EC’s horror output laid the groundwork for what was to come from many of the genre’s greatest writers and directors. Now, AudioComics (a division of Pocket Universe Productions) presents EC’s The Vault of Horror, its stories adapted and presented in an audiorich fully immersive setting complete with a full cast, scoring, and soundscapes.

Cults are back, baby
On the Venn diagram of my listening preferences, The Zeta Family occupies several circles: It’s got the pacing of a thriller along with plenty of jokes, a storyline about cults, and the vocal talents of (*dies*) Natasha Lyonne. Kevin Nealon and Amy Goodmurphy round out the truly awesome cast of narrators, and the sound design is next-level. As Editor Aaron attests, "Referring to The Zeta Family as anything less than a truly original audio experience would be an understatement." I can’t wait to join the cult when this weird and wild listening adventure debuts this month!
About the Creator
Gretchen Enders is a television writer working in Los Angeles. Her credits include Amazon’s Gortimer Gibbon’s Life on Normal Street (for which she received a WGA Award for Outstanding Children’s Episode), Netflix’s Grace and Frankie and Marvel’s WandaVision (premiering on Disney+). Her other Audible credits include Bedtime Stories for Cynics and More Bedtime Stories for Cynics, hosted by Nick Offerman.
About the Performer
Kevin Nealon sets himself apart from other comedic performers with his unique sense of humor, dry wit and likeable demeanor. He is perhaps best known for his nine-year stint as a cast member of NBC’s Saturday Night Live, where he created some of the show’s most memorable characters including Subliminal Man and Hans and Franz. Quite notably, it was his reoccurring role as an anchor on Weekend Update that helped make the sketch a show staple. He also earned an Emmy nod as part of the SNL writing team. He received much critical acclaim for his role as Doug Wilson in the Showtime series, Weeds. He currently stars alongside Matt LeBlanc on the CBS-TV comedy series Man With A Plan, and he also hosts the YouTube series Hiking With Kevin. His 2009 Showtime stand up special, Kevin Nealon: Now Hear Me Out! aired to rave reviews, followed three years later by a second standup special for Showtime, Whelmed...But Not Overly. Other televisions credits include guest starring roles on Hot In Cleveland, The League, Soul Man, Drunk History, and Curb Your Enthusiasm. He is also a regular on the talk show circuit. On the big screen, Kevin starred alongside Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston in Just Go with It, and opposite Andy Samberg and Sarah Silverman in Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping. Other credits from his extensive film career include Anger Management, Blended, Eight Crazy Nights, The Wedding Singer, Happy Gilmore, You Don’t Mess with the Zohan, Joe Dirt, Walk of Shame, Daddy Day Care, Good Boy, Roxanne, and the cult hit Grandma’s Boy. Kevin continues to tour the country performing stand-up comedy, and he is currently working on his third, yet to be titled, stand-up special. In addition, he authored Yes, You’re Pregnant, But What About Me?—a comical look at the male perspective of pregnancy which is available in bookstores.
About the Performer
Four-time Emmy nominee Natasha Lyonne executive produces, writes, directs and stars in Netflix series Russian Doll, which she co-created with Amy Poehler and Leslye Headland.

Animal Pictures, Lyonne’s production company with Maya Rudolph, has a first-look TV deal with Amazon. Lyonne directed an episode of the upcoming final season of Orange Is the New Black, in which she stars as Nicky Nichols. She recently guest-starred in IFC’s Documentary Now and reprised her role on The Simpsons. In 2017, she made her directorial debut with the Kenzo short film Cabiria, Charity, Chastity, for which she also wrote the screenplay. The film screened at the Tribeca Film Festival. Lyonne is well known for her performances in Slums of Beverly Hills, But I’m a Cheerleader, and Everyone Say I Love You. Stage credits include Blood from a Stone, Tigers Be Still, Love, Loss, and What I Wore, and Two Thousand Years.
About the Performer

She is the recipient of multiple Just For Laughs North West Comedy awards and has been performing and creating comedy for over 10 years. Amy has made several television appearances, including CW’s The Flash alongside comedic genius, Jason Mewes. Her wicked sense of humor has caught the ear of many festivals around the world.

About the Performer

Really enjoyable
I really liked this! I wish I could find more audio productions like this. Katie and her cast of characters bizarrely grow on you.

creative
The narration was fun and different from my expectation. Story was original and entertaining, plus the characters were easy to picture and fun to listen to.

I was unsure of this story but it's not bad
it was okay. a solid 7.5 out of 10. it short enough of a good road trip listen. the beginning was a bit iffy but it ended on a heart warming note.
