    Conversing With A Rubricist! Or A Talk About Hobbying.

    Welcome to the seventh episode of season two! In this episode we get to have an international conversation with a hero of mine in the Warhammer40K hobby world: Edward AKA Death_Of_A_Rubricist on Instagram. We discuss what Warhammer40K is, talk about the War Of The False Primarch narrative event (which is open to all to join), and also discuss the nature and benefits of hobbying. This episode was a lot of fun and there is something for everyone, even if Warhammer40K isn’t your jam! Links to sites we discuss in the show: Edward’s Instagram: https://instagram.com/death_of_a_rubricist?utm_medium=copy_link The blog for the War Of The False Primarch: https://warofthefalseprimarch.blogspot.com/?m=1 A link to how to get involved: https://warofthefalseprimarch.blogspot.com/p/get-involved-outline-of-project.html?m=1 A link to Edward’s primary blog: https://apologentsia.blogspot.com/?m=1

    A Conversation On Vintage SciFi Month With LittleRedReviewer

    For the fifth episode of season two we have something really special! The founder of Vintage SciFi Month joins for a conversation on one of the greatest months of reading ever! The end is a bit abrupt as my headset died on me so apologies for that, but this episode was so much fun to produce so we want to give it to you in its entirety! Also here are several resources for finding material to read for Vintage SciFi Month (which takes place every January). Here are the links to the resources talked about in the podcast: Project Gutenberg http://gutenberg.org/ Luminist Archives (everything) http://www.luminist.org/archives/periodicals_index.htm Luminist archives SF Magazines http://www.luminist.org/archives/SF/ Librivox Audiobooks - free public domain https://librivox.org/ Ann and Jeff Vandermeer "big books", these are avail in print and e-book. Big Book of Classic Fantasy https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780525435563 Big Book of Science Fiction https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781101910092 The Weird Compendium https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780765333629 This is the story LittleRedReviewer was talking about by the Bengali lady. It is Sultana's Dream by Rokheya Sakhawat Hossain, from The Big Book of Science Fiction.  the story was published in 1908, and it was also recently reprinted at Strange Horizons http://strangehorizons.com/fiction/sultanas-dream/ Open Road Media - lots of classic scifi avail in print and e-book https://openroadmedia.com/category/science%20fiction and we also hope people check out e-book options and curbside pick up their local library. even if you don't live near a library, or can't get to one, or it isn't open, there's a good chance no matter where someone lives, their county's library system has an ebook loan program.
