Our first 2019 episode of At the Movies is basically Becca, Alex, Julia, and Stephen doing a lot of squeeing, shedding a few tears, but mostly just the squealing. I’m pretty sure Alex actually squeaks with joy at one point. That’s how much they loved Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. And despite trying really hard to get Stephen to play the villain, he just can’t get into destroying the multi-verse. Just trust us when we say that this is just under an hour of pure love and happiness, and we hope you enjoy it.

For our first interview of 2019, we’re excited to bring to you the fantastic S.A. Chakraborty. Paul and Elizabeth chat with S.A. (Shannon) about book two of the Daevabad Trilogy, Kingdom of Copper. They explore why the second book is set a good five years after the first one, how the characters deal with the political turmoil of a land divided, why being a good person is completely subjective, how language and cooking help set the tone for the worldbuilding, and a heck of a lot more! Minor spoilers lie ahead, but this interview is absolutely brilliant! We hope you enjoy the episode!

It’s 2019 and time for our first episode of the year! Shaun, Paul, Julia, and Stephen get down to business with all their faves from last year and what will probably be faves this year! Then Cam, Kerry, Elizabeth, David, Trish, and Jen throw their hats into the ring, so make sure you stay until the end! 2018 might not have been a great year for the world, but it was a great year in speculative fiction, which is why there’s still plenty for us to talk about as we look back on everything we did. Who knows what 2019 will bring? It seems as if speculative fiction is at least one area that definitely won’t disappoint us. For the last month we’ve been sharing our joys through our #MonthofJoy posts and BookTube videos, and we refuse to lose sight of those joys as we plow headlong into an amazing year of podcasts, blog posts, videos, newsletters, Patreon exclusives, merchandise, and more! So to quote Paul:  keep your eyes on the skies and your ears to the ground, because we’re coming for all the specfic! We hope you enjoy the episode!
