Half of it, anyway. Jason Sanford, John Ottinger, and Adam join us for a discussion about the SF/F/H movies coming out in June, some really weird science news, and film adaptations of SF/F books. A few jokes are had at Shaun’s expense and Inception gets what’s coming to it… (This episode is half of a much larger recording. The second half is discussion oriented and is focused on religion in SF/F and our thoughts on why fantasy literature fairs better than science fiction. I expect that episode to go up on Monday, if not earlier.) Tune in and enjoy!
