Join fictional hosts Jane, an inventor, and Barry, a robot, as they explore real places and real stories from a variety of neighbourhoods in Vancouver, BC, in this comedic, scripted, podcast tour.
Part radio play, part documentary, Artificial Outings weaves witty banter and storytelling with local histories and fresh perspectives. Featuring routes around our favourite neighbourhoods in Vancouver, BC.
This series continues and expands upon the Barry and Jane universe first explored in our original play, Artisanal Intelligence. Barry (played by Drew Carlson) is a sentient, hipster, customer-service robot, and Jane (played by Hannah Everett) is an unemployed entrepreneur and the inventor of Barry.
