THE OPC
THE OLD PEOPLE’S CHANNEL
AN ORIGINAL SCRIPTED PODCAST SERIES FOCUSING ON AGEISM
DEBUTING FEBRUARY 24 ON ALL STREAMING PLATFORMS
The OPC – short for The Old People’s Channel – is an original scripted podcast series focusing on ageism, created and written by Richard Curtis. Featuring a cast of 30, the podcast series will debut on Thursday, February 24th, available on all streaming platforms.
Season One of The OPC introduces Bernard Bentlee, a wealthy octogenarian who has invested his fortune, and his family’s inheritance, in a risky new media venture. Is he living a pipe dream and destroying his family’s future, as his daughter Annette accuses? Or is he a genius whose vision bridges the generation gap, fully supported by his Gen Z granddaughters? A modern twist on the classic radio play format, The OPC is equal parts comedy and heart. Easy to binge and hard to forget, this is one podcast that will leave you wanting more. (And more is on the way: a second season is being scripted.)
The OPC is a Mozine Productions podcast, created and written by executive producer Richard Curtis and produced and directed by Megan Simard, with technical production, sound design, and music by Steve Mecca.
The cast of The OPC features Loni Ackerman, Opal Besson, Victoria Bundonis, Joe Cosentino, Peter Dichter, Dianna Dudley, Todd Faulkner, Kerry Frances, David Gibson, Nicole Greevy, Cary Hite, Shonita Joshi, Jamie Lee Kearns, Bunny Levine, Todd Lewis, Hilary Mann, Sevans Martinez, Steve Mecca, Kris Paredes, Marina Re, Merritt Reid, Peter Reznikoff, Richard Sacher, Megan Simard, Dick Terhune, Dan Truman, Jenne Vath, and Dathan B.
