The BEAM Chronicles

MJ Dooney

There are no "superheroes." We don't even use that word: we call them Anomalies. And to us normal people, not blessed with the gifts of flight, or strength, or hyper-powered mech-suits, these Anomalies, regardless of their intentions, are a threat. They must be dealt with--they must be equalized. We are the Bureau for the Equalization of Anomalistic Metahumans, BEAM for short. We will solve the Anomaly problem, by whatever means necessary.

The BEAM Chronicles is a sci-fi/super-hero fiction podcast produced, written, and performed by storyteller MJ Dooney, with the assistance of AI-powered voice changing software. Check for new episodes weekly.
