The Tides is the 35-minute pilot episode of a sci-fi radio drama that explores what might happen if we tried to see our life in alternate realities. We often wonder if we made the right decisions, but we don't get to know the answer. It's no use obsessing over what could have been different. The grass isn't always greener on the other side. This episode follows the protagonist Maya Gray—an intelligent scientist weighed down by grief—on her return to her remote Alaskan hometown, Gipka. Upon arrival she discovers it is not how she remembered it.
