Against Minkowski's better judgment, Eiffel decides to use Hilbert's mechanical skills to repair a faulty system in the station's optical network.

With everyone's whereabouts and actions accounted for, the crew struggles to solve the enigma of the mysterious, disappearing screwdriver.

Tensions run high when the crew revisits the issue of how to handle Doctor Hilbert's continued presence on board the Hephaestus.

But when a member of the crew decides that drastic measures are called for, they may end up damaging the fragile bond that joins them together beyond repair.

LaF Podcast Interview

Earlier this week, we had the pleasure of sitting down with the hosts of the Literature and Film Podcast for an interview. The L-Train and Mr. Two-Frames talked with Zach Valenti (Eiffel/Hilbert), Emma Sherr-Ziarko (Minkowski), and myself about all things Wolf 359.

These guys were a complete blast to talk to, so if you want to hear more about how our episodes come together, the challenges of voiceover acting (and of playing two characters at once!), or what we hope the future has in store for our show, you should definitely tune in! Plus, they have one of the sharpest and more entertaining media commentary podcasts on the web, so if you're looking for other shows to listen to between installments of Wolf 359, try out one of their other episodes!

You can listen to Wolf 359's interview the LaF Podcast here.

After weeks in a state of emergency, Eiffel, Minkowski, and Hera are faced with an unexpected challenge: staving off boredom during an uneventful night on the Hephaestus. Desperate for any way to pass the time, the crew goes through games, contests, bets, jokes, minor intrigue, secret-telling, rare moments of sincerity, and even a bit of honest work. Plus, elementary grade English, paranoid old harpies, Giraffe 163, a failure to communicate, and Ziddeldy-Dibbeldy. 

This episode’s music features Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D Major by Johann Sebastian Bach. This interpretation of the piece comes courtesy of Musopen.

Still dealing with the fallout from Hera's deactivation, the crew struggles to keep the rapidly deteriorating Hephaestus functional. Overwhelmed, sleep-deprived, and constantly faced with new mechanical problems, Eiffel and Minkowski can't escape the feeling that they are on the verge of a disastrous mistake. But when the Commander thinks up an unconventional, and possibly dangerous, solution, the exhausted pair must decide whether they are willing to take on yet another deadly risk. Plus, "check engine" lights, dizzy spells, Hitchcock antagonists, Dr. Iscariot, and a brain the size of a mack truck. 

Remember - our second mini-episode is waiting in the wings. We'll release when we get to 25 reviews on our iTunes page. If you haven't done so already, and you would like a quick glimpse at Eiffel's life before the beginning of the show, please take a moment to review Wolf 359!

Episode 14: The Kumbaya Approach

Welcome back to Wolf 359! Season 2 of the show has officially begun, and we are kicking things off with our fourteenth full episode, The Kumbaya Approach. Listen to it on our Season 2 page! 

Unsure of who or what to trust after the events at Christmas, Eiffel and Minkowski make contact with Mr. Cutter, their liaison to Goddard Futuristics and the mission's direct supervisor. But given Hilbert's actions, how wise is it to inform Command about their discovery of the mysterious deep space signal? And how much does Mr. Cutter already know about what is happening on the Hephaestus? Plus, long distance calls, exponential emergencies, showing and telling, extreme prejudice, and Hephaestus Mystery 340.

This episode features Scotty Shoemaker in the role of Mr. Cutter and Cecilia Lynn-Jacobs in the role of Captain Lovelace. This episode also featured music from The Italian Girl in Algiers by Gioachino Rossini. This interpretation of the piece comes courtesy of Musopen.
