The year is 1970. Emma Gable, a blind teenager coming of age in a small industrial town in Western New York, is about as far from the seismic cultural transformations rocking campuses and city streets across America as a person can get. Emma escapes the chaos of her dysfunctional family by dialing up random numbers on the phone in her bedroom, just to see who'll answer.
But when a fateful call connects her to a mysterious band of proto-hackers calling themselves "Phone Phreaks", the revolution comes home, changing Emma's life for good. Because, Bell Telephone, the world's biggest corporation, is not amused that a handful of teenagers suddenly have the power to seize control of its vast and lucrative network and bend it to their will.
Bringing down the Phreaks is the corporate Goliath's number one priority, but for Bell Security agent Bill Connolly, the crusade becomes personal as he struggles to outwit and outmaneuver an adversary that seems always one step ahead of him.
Phreaks is the story of a fracturing family struggling to redefine itself as the world changes rapidly around it. Set at the dawn of the information age, its characters struggle with the same issues that define us today: privacy and surveillance, misuse of personal data, the ownership of ideas, our century-long obsession with the telephone, and the thirst for community that's driven us, since the dawn of time, to seek out new ways to "reach out and touch someone".
Full voice cast includes: Ben McKenzie, Carrie Coon, Christian Slater, Justice Smith, Bree Klauser, Ashley Williams, Esau Pritchett, Arielle Goldman, Danny Mastrogiorgio, Alejandro Hernandez, Daniel Kim, Dave Ahdoot, Rachel Kenney, Chris Roberti, and Katie Hartman.
Written by Matthew Derby.

Great listen

Story was great, good humor sprinkled in here and there to make it quite enjoyable; Christian, Ben, Carrie, were all fantastic... and Bree too did a great job. Just finished listened to it while doing house work, but will listen to it again to fully enjoy it. Really like Bree’s voice and funny at times when hearing a “familiar” voice like Christian’s. Not that I know him or anything, but have seen him in many films.. kind of like having a friend in the room - if not sounding too weird. Very good at recognizing voices - I was stunned Carrie was in Infinity War and I didn’t recognize her voice; saw that movie a fair few times.
Great cast, story, all around excellent production - very happy with it. Ben and Justice I just don’t know well enough voice wise to pick out, but thought everyone did a great job! Heard some audiobooks where the narrator seems like their just reading a page with no feeling behind it monotoned like a robot. Not this one, production was tight, actors made it feel real which is everything you want in an audio book/play... whatever you’d call this.
All in all would highly recommend!
