It’s like a Shaun and Jen cocktail laced with acid inside a Philip K. Dick pie…topped with whip cream, of course. (Don’t try to imagine what that would look like…) In 4.7, we talk about why Another Earth is science fiction (and why the person who says it isn’t is a moron), Adam’s nifty news, the SF Gateway, and a few other fun things, such as how scientists are ruining science fiction and Jen’s slurpie habit. Tune in and enjoy! Note: If you have iTunes and like this show, please give us a review on our iTunes page, or feel free to email us with your thoughts about the show!
