It’s a Superpower?? is an immersive audio experience and is best enjoyed with headphones.

Remember the five autistic disaster-humans you met last episode? They’ve acquired magic powers beyond their control, which are threatening to destroy the world as we know it! So, er, no biggie. Featuring: vasovagal syncope, legally distinct robot cars, covering Lewisham High Street in blancmange, and a pair of enigmatic strangers bearing news. Grace Jarvis guest stars.
