Lieberstein teases a moment in the podcast where Cheri Oteri gets a job doing closet design on the ship. "There was a couple of cases where I went back and the other actor came back and I was just like, 'We just have to keep this. They did some really funny stuff, but you need both sides, so sometimes somebody would do something, but I've already recorded the other side," he said of the process. "There was a little bit of improv, but it was very hard to use most of it. With so many funny actors and comedians on board for the podcast, Lieberstein admits it was "challenging" for any of them to get improvisational on the script because of them not being in the same room. Because he just mimicked everybody and just had such great timing and improv skills of his own that."

"We were on Zoom, but then we built this little blanket fort for everyone for sound and shipped them a microphone," he said.
Recorded last year and in "different locations," Lieberstein reveals no one was able to work together in person for the Audible Original but the chemistry with everyone was just perfect. And so this was taking that position, and trying to put a more realistic, or at least, comic character."
"I just feel there'd be a union and people would want to put themselves in the line zero times. I've always felt that these captains of spaceships care so much about their jobs and put themselves, put their lives on the line every week it shows and it just seems so false to me," he said. "It's basically like a sci-fi, but I'm kind of calling it anti-sci-fi. With origins in a short play that the creative Lieberstein put on in the past, which featured Captain Cottonhammer, Lieberstein admits he really liked the role he imagined and just kept writing until he developed MIDDLESPACE. But his life soon changes forever when he refuses to answer an intergalactic distress call, which turns out to be a trap, offering him the chance to make himself a hero. The Audible Original and Above Average Production finds Starship Captain George Cottonhammer (Forte) bored out of his job, annoyed by his staff and hopeful over a dream to one day open his own intergalactic burger franchise.
