The Off Season: A Four-Part Serialized AUDIO DRAMA That Explores the #MeToo Movement 

from the Fiction Podcast, The Truth

In the current climate of celebrity comeback attempts, The Off Season follows the fallout of  popular television host Bruce Alvarez (Peter Grosz, HBO’s Veep) when he is ousted for sexual harassment. Alvarez retreats to an empty beach house, only to find an aspiring journalist (Erica Hernandez, CBS’s The Late Show) squatting there in the off season. He sees the potential for a comeback story. She sees an opportunity for a groundbreaking piece about the growing  #MeToo movement. 

As their respective ambitions go head to head, they take a deep dive into a world of crime, cover-ups, and whether or not redemption is even possible. The Off Season is a timely and compelling thriller about how the world enables and nurtures toxic men. It’s about how maybe, this time, things are going to be different.
