Here we are with the second episode of the show! We get a little more controversial, slightly less clean, and a lot more crazy (well, Adam does; Shaun, as we all know, is a little angel).
One quick thing: we mention in the episode that one of the segments still has the split audio. It doesn’t. I managed to de-split the audio, so there are no split-audio sections. We didn’t have time to re-record.
Without further delay, here it is. Enjoy (notes are below):
Our question of the week is:
Who are some of your favorite new science fiction writers and why? (“New” means a writer who began publishing novels in the last ten years.)
