The Carrington Doctrine
After the lights went out, some people survived. Others… adapted. The Carrington Doctrine is a dystopian sci-fi mystery podcast told through the solar-powered voice logs of Colin — a former union electrician and reluctant narrator living deep inside an off-grid commune led by a man who believes the sun will cleanse what’s left. As the days grow quieter and the hum in the trees grows louder, Colin records everything — not for history, but for his daughter, Amber… in case someone ever listens.
Episodes
A squirrel problem, a stash in the woodpile, and a signal that won’t stay quiet. Colin’s recordings pick up something new—something not quite right.
Rain falls. Doubt grows. Colin records from his hut as cracks begin to form in the commune — and in himself.
Colin lays out the hardline rules of life inside the commune — from energy usage to communication bans. We meet Marty, the group’s resident oddball, and start to sense that not everyone takes the doctrine as seriously as Elias would like.
Colin’s sarcasm deepens, and beneath it, something else: doubt.
In the first episode of The Carrington Doctrine, Colin begins his solar-powered log from deep within an off-grid commune preparing for the so-called “Second Carrington Event.” He introduces us to the group’s strict rules, eerie silence, and a doctrine built around sun-worship, survivalism, and suspicion of the digital world.
Colin’s tone is dry, but his hidden motive for recording? Much more personal.

Colin went into the woods to get away.
At the time, he didn’t know what from.
Now, he has no idea.
