Universe Friday

Universe Friday

Hello.

Welcome to Universe Friday, a short-form, fictional podcast inspired directly by ‘Universe City,’ featured in Alice Oseman’s book ‘Radio Silence’.

These episodes are representational excerpts of what would be full episodes of ‘Universe City’ and are original works by a fan for the fans, and are originally posted on the Universe Friday Tumblr blog, @universe-friday.

Episodes will be posted bi-weekly, on a Friday, as consistently as I can. Each one will vary in length and contain multiple excerpts from the Universe Friday Tumblr page.

For any inquiries, suggestions or opinions, head to @friday-answers’ ask box on Tumblr.

Thank you. I hope you’ll be listening.
