A desperate alien. A struggling mom. One life-changing swap that flips a family upside down.
Alpha 8 is an award-winning, family-friendly sci-fi audio drama that blends E.T., The Princess Diaries, and a Freaky Friday twist into a heartfelt adventure about identity, parenthood, and second chances.

The alien must learn the meaning of family to save her species from extinction—while the real mom fights to escape, return home, and protect the people she loves. Government secrets, emotional discovery, and domestic comedy collide in this eight-episode cinematic story.
