Shaun Duke, Trish Matson, and Paul Weimer join forces for our first ever Mining the Genre Asteroid subcast. In this special show, we’ll go back in time to lesser known or unfairly forgotten science fiction, fantasy, and horror from before 1980 to explore what wonders are buried in the annuls in time. In this episode, we look at James H. Schmitz’s The Demon Breed. (MGA is the brainchild of Paul Weimer, who, along with Trish, kindly demanded it be turned into a show!) Thanks for listening. We hope you enjoy the episode!

In our fifth episode, we discuss what we’ve been watching lately — a little bit of Dredd and Abel Ferrara — and then head back to the 60s to discuss the recently-reappraised Burt Lancaster film, The Swimmer (1968; dir. Frank Perry). We tackle the film’s exploration of age and morality, its stunning indictment of WASP culture, the film’s rocky history, and much more. We’re also still working on our Subscriber Drive so we can add a second episode to the show. More details on that to come on the blog! Enjoy!
