The Next 5 Minutes
Dramatised dystopian scifi
This show was at one time binge-ready, but now it's... not?
It may have switched to an "always on" status, or the creator may have stopped using Season Number and Episode Number values. Or they're inconsistent with their tagging, have removed episodes, or made other changes—intentional or not—leading to a less-than-perfect listener experience. And, if we're honest. It could be us. We might have listed the show too early, and episodes of the first season are still releasing.
Regardless, it's currently in a state that disqualifies it from being listed in our directory, as it's no longer binge-ready.

Yikes! Something odd is happening with this show making the episodes inaccessible or the entire show no longer binge-ready.
Show synopsis
This show uses machine-generated voices
It’s 2035… and things aren’t great Downunder. Mass homelessness, pollution ruining beaches, teenagers facing slave labour and everything, including euthanasing the elderly, has been privatised by a corrupt libertarian government in cahoots with Empyrean Industries, a shadowy corporation busy mining the moon.
An underground terrorist movement called Swag Sting is mobilising but wracked by infighting. Crowd control measures include giant, deadly robot kangaroos. As our protagonists battle for humanity’s essence, we uncover an alarming future that lurks uncomfortably close.
THE NEXT 5 MINUTES is not just a podcast—it’s a movement, a deep, dark, truthful mirror reflecting a future we must avoid. Every. Second. Counts.
