James L. Sutter joins the crew to discuss Joon-Ho Bong’s critically-acclaimed Snowpiercer (2013). We tackle the film’s symbology, its religious imagery, the allegories of capital and race in its narrative, and a whole lot more. Plus: there’s a big old debate at the end on how dramatic “serious” sf is sometimes treated differently than “fun” sf. We hope you enjoy the episode!

Announcement: November is the Month of Joy and Call for Contributors
We announced this on Twitter, but to make it official, here’s a magic post about it. Given all of the heated stuff going on in the sf/f community — and those communities related to it — the Skiffy and Fanty Show blog will dedicate the entirety of the month of November to a Month of Joy tour. What does this mean? We’re going to share what we love and put a lid on the stuff that makes us upset. Think of it as a healthy dose of positivity to stave off the specter of a bleak world. We’re also including some guest writers in this Month of Joy. We’ll announce names later on (things not being confirmed and all). If you’d like to contribute, you can do so by sending an email to skiffyandfanty[at]gmail[dot]com. Whether you’re a fan, a writer, a fellow podcaster, or a secret agent who sneaks compliments onto people’s notepads, you can be a part of this, too! Let the Month of Joy begin!
