Between Silo seasons, Wool-Shift-Dust is exploring the outer sectors of the galaxy with the newest Hugh Howey sci-fi adaptation to hit the screen: *Beacon 23* , airing on MGM+. We'll be covering the full season, a few episodes at a time.Meanwhile, our ongoing *Dune* retrospective goes deep into what makes a good adaptation, with the book many call the most important work of science fiction ever, the unadaptable yet often adapted Dune – from the book to the movies you know and the ones you probably missed, we get into the lore, philosophy, filmmaking, and Sting's winged speedo (we have some laughs, too).Also, listen back to our Halloween *Edgar Allan Poe* and *The Fall of the House of Usher* coverage, and our weekly breakdowns of *Silo* , Apple TV+’s dystopic scifi thriller, from two different perspectives: book reader Elysia, and show only Luke, with spoilers only up to the episode discussed and equivalent parts of the book. *Coming this holiday season* : Wool-Shift-Dust explores the world of It's a Wonderful Life *Coming in Jan* : Wool-Shift-Dust studies The Three-Body Problem Find us on Twitter: Elysia Brenner: @elysiacb ( https://twitter.com/elysiacb ) Luke Middup: @LUKEMIDDUP ( https://twitter.com/LUKEMIDDUP ) And Discord: https://discord.gg/8CeM9crU Email us: WoolShiftDustPodcast@gmail.com Join the Wool-Shift-Dust bookclub: http://www.patreon.com/WoolShiftDust/ Published by The Lorehounds.

Beacon 23: Interview w/ Glen Mazzara, S2 co-showrunner
Elysia talks to Beacon 23 season 2 co-showrunner Glen Mazzara about the show, what it's like to be a showrunner (during a strike), with deep and honest reflection of how story decisions are made, and answers to some of our lingering questions. Before and after the interview, Luke joins Elysia to talk through this and other new information, and play a couple rounds of Would You Rather.

Beacon 23: S2-E7&8 – Harmony's final form?
Elysia and Luke look back on the two seasons of Beacon 23 as a whole as we take our last beacon-based deep dive (for now, hopefully) into the final two episodes of season 2: episodes 7 ("Free") and 8 ("Disintegration").
What exactly happened with Harmony; what did we learn about these characters and this world; who would we Join, Jail, or Jettison; and who is the most murderous AI of them all – we attempt to answer everything!

Original episode notes:
In this quickie intro episode to The Star Wars Canon Timeline Podcast, you’ll learn not only what all those words mean (in the context of Star Wars), but also how this podcast works – how this experiment in creating a chronological timeline amidst a chaotic release order will unfold, and what to expect from the journey.
I break down the 9 eras of Star Wars history we’re covering – starting thousands of years in the past, through weekly releases of the upcoming series The Acolyte – as well as what kinds of guests to expect, essential Star Wars timeline lingo, and how this podcast is designed for both old fans and fresh faces who are Star Wars-curious.
This Is the Way.
