What Is Fathom? What can you fathom? Inspired by the radio serials of the ‘40s, we give you “Fathom,” an anthology series of short adventures that explore the fantastical, the mundane and everything in between. Humans are complicated creatures. In these episodes we explore what makes them tick. Morality tales that become something else. Supernatural thrillers that are more realistic than they first appear. This is a strange time in a strange world. What can you fathom?
Fathom invites you to Be My Baby... Roughly thirty thousand feet above sea level, two pilots have a normal conversation minutes before landing in San Juan. Then, a sound. A strange sound. The captain hears it. Who else hears it? Do you hear it? Somebody else must hear it. It can't only be me. Can it?
An unexplainable event creates an impossible opportunity. A son tries to connect with his father. One partner tries to understand another's struggle. They say you can never go back. But what if you could? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fathomstories/message
