The best Captives War and the best The Expanse podcast out there!
This is such a great podcast for fans of James S.A. Corey and fans of sci-fi in general. Their deep dives and analysis are great. So is the fact that they are just nerds like the rest of us about this, and it really comes through.

I really like this podcast. It provoked some ideas about TMOG that I hadn’t considered on my first read. It’s insightful and fun - and now I’m realising I’m going to have to reread all the expanse too.
I know there may not be a lot of podcast in this space, but please believe those that are here appreciate your work and dedication. Been grinding all your episodes since I found you.
