I read sci fi books and talk about them! I love Science Fiction, and since I'm convinced that the book is (almost) always better than the movie, I read and analyze Sci Fi from all eras and subgenres.
This is a broad discussion of Science Fiction literature, classic and contemporary. I'm not a professional critic, these aren't professional reviews, just my opinion. I get wound up sometimes and don't censor myself, so the EXPLICIT tag is for language.

01. Aurora, Kim Stanley Robinson
This episode: A look at Aurora (2015) by Kim Stanley Robinson. Best known for the Mars Trilogy, Robinson is well known for his detailed, immersive, literary science fiction where scientists often are the heroes. Aurora tells the tale of multi-generational colony ship en route from the Earth system to Tau Ceti. This stand-alone novel examines themes of interpersonal psychology, migration, and the ethics of star travel. So before you pack off to the Labrador biome on your wanderjahr, download this discussion for your travels!

00. Intro: Radio Free Arrakis
Where I try to explain what Radio Free Arrakis is all about, why I want to do this, and why my first official episode won't be about Dune.
