About this listen
What if President John F. Kennedy had survived and rocketed the Space Race of the 1960s into overdrive? And what if he was, maybe, not quite...himself?
Space: 1969 is a wild and outrageous sci-fi comedy from the mind of Emmy-winning writer Bill Oakley (The Simpsons, Futurama, Portlandia).
Nancy Kranich (played by Emmy-nominated actress Natasha Lyonne of Russian Doll and Orange Is the New Black) is a night nurse on an orbiting space station. But Nancy hates her job, is sick of space, and longs to find adventure and a safe place to smoke cigarettes that won’t blow everyone up.
But when Nancy gets caught up in an outer-space conspiracy involving President Kennedy (serving his third term), former vice-president Richard Nixon (now a miserable, forgotten lawyer practicing estate law in New York City), and an intergalactic object that could change the course of history, she gets way more adventure than she bargained for.
Can Nurse Nancy save herself, the Moon Colony, and the future of the entire United States of America?
Space: 1969 is a retro sci-fi comedy adventure that has to be heard to be believed!

You could loosely describe it as an alternative history, speculating what would happen if President Kennedy didn’t die in Dallas in 1963.
I think it is accessible by anyone, but as some reviewers have pointed out, familiarity with 1960’s US history and social norms adds to the humour I suspect.
Retro space opera or what?
