On the planet Summa Nulla (crossroads of the galaxy, high point of nothing) someone is manipulating the media. And Ruby, smart, tough, sexy detective that she is, is hired to track down the male-factors. The swinging Andriod Sisters perform speak-satirical songs as Ruby, the funny, fast-paced galactic gumshoe, encounters some pretty weird planetary inhabitants on her quest for truth and the intergalactic way.

A full cast production.

I listened to this story on radio a number of years ago and was delighted to find it here. It is one of those listens that you just have to let it happen and not analyze it to death. It is a fun "Sci-Fi" story.

Enjoyable but Quirky.

a classic radio drama!

I grew up with Meatball Fulton's stories but never listened to Ruby until today! Holy Cow, what a wacky, and compelling adventure. Somewhat confusing and disorienting, but I believe thats the point.
absolutely loved the techno vibe and the music.
cant wait to hear the rest in the series!

Really Fun Adventure! Awesome Soundtrack.

They really should make this into a movie. Maybe someday they will. Or maybe a 3D animated movie.

I love this story.

I used to listen to Ruby on the radio. It is a fun diversion like Dreams of Rio or Saratoga Springs.

I used to listen to Ruby on the radio. It is fun.

This is the original Ruby audio adventure, by ZBS. It is great, with a lot of fun listening, from beginning to end. It is difficult to describe, but maybe something like "'Word Jazz' with a scifi plot line" is close. Or, one could just say that Ruby is a galactic gumshoe - a Good One, and leave it at that. It was originally a full-cast theatrical radio broadcast serial, with music, sound effects. Not a "regular" audiobook. If you are a new listener you will notice updates and reprises between episodes, which is part of the fun, and helpful because there's a lot of action. For all the years that it's been out, it holds up very well, and definitely bears repeating. A true classic.

Written by Meatball Fulton this is the start of ZBS Media's series Ruby the Galactic Gumshoe. Sort of Blade runner meets Tomb Raider, Columbo and the Marx Brothers. Endlessly entertaining and delightful. if you like old movies, puns and campy humor this is for you.

Campy fun radio serial style
