Apocalypse Theater Podcast
by Benjamin Allen: novelist and podcaster
The Apocalypse Theater Podcast is an audio drama featuring fiction and dark fiction stories written by Benjamin Allen.

Each story, however, has a separate theme, beginning, middle, and unique ending, so it is not necessary to have heard previous episodes.

ATP 033 - Mind Games
Do you ever feel like you're living the same day over and over again? Every three years our University of the Seven Suns along with hundreds of other psionic schools from across the Eternium compete in a giant resource contest within the ringworlds surrounding the Dyson Sphere of Partikan. It was pretty fun until I started waking up at the beginning of the contest without knowing why. No one else seemed to know what I was talking about so I was on my own in figuring out how to break the cycle. The truth turned out to be more sinister and dangerous than I ever would have imagined. Enjoy the first few chapters of the audiobook. If you like it, check out Audible.com for the full story.
