About PlotPossum

Some stories only look finished.

PlotPossum follows beloved movies, television shows, and fictional worlds beyond their endings. What happens to the characters left behind? What if one choice opens an entirely different future?

Discover immersive, feature-length aftermath stories, alternate timelines, and original what-if journeys. From the distant corners of Middle-earth to familiar worlds with unfinished questions, every adventure begins where another story ends.

We keep established lore, interpretation, and original speculation clearly distinguished, so you can enjoy the possibilities while knowing where the source material stops.

Settle in for long-form journeys, usually two hours or more. The credits have rolled. The possibilities haven’t.

The Bedside Universe official channel banner

Space, nature & the human mind

The Bedside Universe

You do not have to understand everything tonight.

Begin with something familiar and follow the extraordinary science behind it. Thoughtfully researched journeys, warm narration, and plenty of room to wonder.

About The Bedside Universe

Calm science journeys for sleep and quiet listening.

The Bedside Universe begins with familiar things—a glass of water, a fallen leaf, a memory—and follows the extraordinary science behind them. Explore space, nature, and the human mind through original, thoughtfully researched episodes lasting more than two hours.

Expect warm narration, unhurried explanations, and room to wonder. We distinguish what the evidence shows from what remains unknown, and make every journey easy to enjoy with your eyes closed.

Listen closely, let your attention wander, or drift off in your own time.

Science, wonder, and our place in it.

You do not have to understand everything tonight.

OUR PUBLISHING COMPANY

Many worlds.
A shared vision.

We are Plotward Publishing.

We’re an independent publishing company managing a growing family of YouTube channels. Our team develops, produces, and publishes video stories, lore explorations, film commentary, and science journeys for audiences who love to go deeper.

Writers, editors, and voice actors bring their craft together across our channels. From the first idea and research to the script, narration, edit, and release, we work as a team to give each story a clear voice and each channel its own identity.

Some of our channels follow the possibilities beyond an ending. Others piece together an entire saga, investigate a mystery, or offer a quiet journey through the universe. Curiosity connects them all.
