We have been in existence since 1970. For 55 years we\u2019ve been producing radio\/audio stories. These are comic and cosmic adventures, science fiction, mystical mysteries - some with spiritual wisdoms woven within. Our intention has always been to raise consciousness by using the media, radio and audio. Of course, some of these stories are just down right fun, fine family entertainment. Laughter is a great healer, as you know. We\u2019re all living in the Cosmic Joke, and one day we may actually \u201cget\u201d the punch line. But in the meantime, remember, kindness to others, people, plants, animals, even the earth and the clouds, we can all do. It makes us feel better, it probably even makes the clouds feel better. We hope you enjoy our stories.<\/p>\n<p><b>What Are ZBS Audio Dramas?<\/b><br \/>\nZBS produces original stories for Public Radio, Internet Radio, CDs, and MP3 downloads. Many of these series have aired on the BBC, CBC Canada, ABC Australia, National Public Radio &amp; Armed Forces Radio, including over 500 stations in the US. If you're unfamiliar with the ZBS world, listen to samples provided for each title. We think you'll be intrigued.<\/p>\n<p><b>Why listen to ZBS Audio Drama?<\/b><br \/>\nTo turn commutes &amp; long drives into an adventure.<br \/>\nTo make daily exercise more interesting.<br \/>\nTo let your mind paint pictures.<br \/>\nTo enjoy the bus\/train\/plane.<br \/>\nTo make chores more fun.<br \/>\nTo smile &amp; laugh out loud.<br \/>\nTo be in love with life.<br \/>\nTo be lulled to sleep.<br \/>\nTo feel less lonely.<\/p>\n<p>Please consider making a tax deductible donation to ZBS Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>The income from downloads, CD and USB sales does cover our daily existence, but it\u2019s not enough to produce something new, fresh, challenging and exciting.<\/p>\n<p>Look at it this way ... sometimes these stories are humorous or adventurous or simply fun. But that\u2019s the surface. We put a lot of love into these stories, that\u2019s why there\u2019s often a subtle kind of healing energy that makes people feel good about life and about themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Our stories are not the usual mindless entertainment.
