    I very much appreciate this peek into the minds and thought patterns of the creative but conscientious and/or intelligent sci fi authors. Please continue the conversation...

  • a great slice of speculative fiction cake

    Great podcast with some of the biggest names of speculative fiction. The discussions are meaty and interesting without being dense or boring. I only wish the podcast was a little longer (30-45 minutes) but nevertheless there's a lot of interesting content in the 25 minutes . Good job Tim Wu.

    I liked the food podcast but, if these two are in competition to see which becomes permanent than, Stranger Than Fiction has my vote!!!
