When I was younger, I used to read sci-fi magazines, like locus and buy books that were compendiums of science fiction stories by names some familiar some completely new. Some of the stories were really bad, but most of the stories were really good and I always got a taste of what people were looking for in futures. I found the same thing here in escape pod. I hope you do too.
I love sci-fi and life
This came up as a recommendation as a cool long running podcast and just adds to my life every time I listen to it
Please listen and support if you can as nothing about it it disappoints 😊
Thanks to all involved who makes it and also to everyone who takes joy in it
There can always be hope and joy x
I started listening to Escape Pod close to 20 years ago. Unfortunately, over the years it became nothing but a stream of anti-white, anti-male, anti-capitalist hatred. This is very much a case of fiction being equivalent to lies.
Awesome, will tune into more episodes.
A huge variety of fun SF stories.
