Far beyond the frontier of civilized space, sails the starship the CSS Cavalier, manned by her strange and daring crew. Their destination? Adventure. Their cargo? Your dang ears. Their mission? Episodic science fiction comedy at the intersection of Star Trek, Douglas Adams, and the Marquis DeSade. From the same people who birthed unto you the blockbuster true-crime podcast Rude Tales of Magic comes a new and improvised sci-fi (science fiction) delight that has already been banned in most public schools and the Vatican.

Almost nothing ever makes me laugh out loud but this show frequently does. The characters are all so real. Such talent. Listen, pay for the RSS feed, it’s easy and you’ll literally immediately know it’s the best money you’ve spent all year.

I love Rude Tales so I thought I’d give this podcast a chance. Love it. You won’t be disappointed! And the Patreon is so affordable. Some good eps on there if you’re hungry for more. Joe is an awesome GM. Very talented. Everyone is having so much fun doing this, you can tell. It’s a delight!
KC from SJ · Sep 2023
the crew of the ss cavalier constantly have me smiling and laughing in public, much to my chagrin. i wasn’t sure i would like this podcast as much as rude tales of magic, their other show, because i have limited sci-fi knowledge. turns out, it doesnt matter because the show is still so darn funny, even though i might not get every star trek reference. this has become my favorite podcast (shhh don’t tell rude tales).

there’s just some je ne sais quoi when it comes to this cast. All podcasts sorta feed into the parasocial idea that you know the people on the other end of the mic… but fudge it, I’ll allow it this once!
Truly, though, nothing can beat a group of friends goofing off, speaking in silly voices, and solving problems in the most sensual ways possible. In space!
OTTSOS is endlessly entertaining and i highly recommend it for anyone who, like me, enjoys popping in their airpods and laughing aloud, seemingly randomly to outside observers, while walking their dog in the wee hours if the morning.
P.S. Tim platt - i love you
