DERELICT Premium: https://derelict.supercast.com/ Having survived the secondary airlock, Raynor, Freed and Chambers managed to save Stevens and access the Crichton, a much smaller ice mining ship docked on the massive derelict. But it contains its own enigmas, ones that point to the reality that this is no ice miner ship, and that the information they've been given about what is going on may have been all wrong. With the atmosphere burn beginning to destroy the Crichton, they must find a way to open the derelict's airlock doors and finally reach its interior...but the presence of a mysterious, dangerous prisoner in the cargo bay threatens to up end loyalties and risk the mission entirely.

"Dr. Graff... What have we done to ourself?" The trailer for the second half of the FATHOM season. Get ready, new episodes coming this month!

Dr. Eva Graff and Brynn Emerson have barely survived their ordeal on the Vault when an even more dire complication rears its head. In order to save what's left of Fathom base, the two women must work together to stop a dark event from occurring on the abandoned Southern platform...but the events of the past day, including the reveal of Mack's true agenda, have taken their toll on Eva. She can't stop hearing the sounds of her daughter Alex, can't stop wondering whether they were real or just the hallucinations from intense radiation exposure. And as the situation becomes more and more desperate, she will question everything...and, eventually, choose her path.FATHOM is created, written and directed by J. Barton Mitchell; produced by Elizabeth Laidlaw, Kirsten Rudberg and Thomas Barker; features original music by Makeup and Vanity Set, Luke Atencio, and Ryan Taubert; sound design and editing by J.

Finnegan - GAYLEN ROSS

Dr. Eva Graff finds herself in her most precarious situation yet: trapped in the rubble of the collapsed western Control capsule, lost and alone, her odds of survival decreasing rapidly. More than that, the death of Joe Freeman has taken a great toll, a trauma similar to one she has already suffered...and it may have broken her, leaving her ill equipped to deal with the major revelation that is coming about the events that have transpired on Fathom base.

After a surprise, cataclysmic tide surge hits Fathom base, Dr. Eva Graff is trapped in the west platform airlock. When she learns that base commander Joe Freeman is hurt and stuck in a  slowly flooding circuitry conduit, she sets off on a perilous journey to save him; a journey that will push her beyond her breaking points...

Seventeen years before the events in DERELICT, something was found at the bottom of Earth's ocean. An ancient artifact that can only be described as a giant door, inset into the ocean floor.  It became known as the Vault.  A gigantic enigma, buried and forgotten...nineteen thousand feet down. Just the kind of thing that would interest the galaxy's most powerful corporation, Maas-Dorian. To study the artifact, the company built a massive, self-contained, secret laboratory base surrounding it. That base is named Fathom. It's objective: unlock the secrets of the artifact and discover what it holds.​A group of scientists, engineers, and workers led by Dr. Eva Graff and Commander Joe Freeman have been working on that task for almost a year, but with little to show for it. The Vault has yet to give up its secrets, and their employers are beginning to lose patience. Add to that, some on the base say they hear...voices. Inside the signal the Vault is broadcasting. Hundreds of them. Thousands. Whispering and chittering of a desire to be let out...But none of it holds sway over a corporation interested only in power and profit, even if it knows all too well that some mysteries should remain buried. And that some doors should never be opened....FATHOM is a narrative podcast experience from award winning science fiction author J. Barton Mitchell, and follows a host of unlikely characters trying to unlock a frightening mystery at the bottom of the ocean. It is the prequel to the story that began in the podcast DERELICT.​​​
