    Robb Pearlman For Grown-Ups and Kids

    Robb Pearlman For Grown-Ups and Kids

    The Sistas nerd out and speak 'book' with pop cultural king Robb Pearlman, who has written over 70 books, including Starfleet Is and Live Like a Vulcan, Love like a Wookie, Laugh like a Hobbit. With a self proclaimed agenda to "put out kindness" into the world, Robb is still determined to make you think. Sistas and Robb think about declaring things as canon and even delve into the world of Poet Smurf.

    Paul J. Salamoff - Storyteller

    Paul J. Salamoff - Storyteller

    Writer, Director, Producer, and Screenwriter launches his new novel The Silent Planet
    The Sistas sit down with Subrina's mentor, New York Film Academy screenwriting instructor Paul J. Salamoff, to talk about his new sci-fi novel The Silent Planet, described as Solaris meets Jurassic Park. This interview is a gift as Paul drops all sorts of wisdom from writing with a theme, to how to take a note, to the inspiration of collaboration. After over 30 years in Hollywood, Paul has a story about everybody and everything. Hear how two lines of dialogue can make a film, or that time he interviewed Steven Spielberg. Paul doesn't believe in the 'tortured writer', but Subrina believes there was a slightly tortured Sista in NYFA's Screenwriting course that year.

Johnringo ,

Great podcast

Love the interviews, and also the episodes where they just throw a great topic around. These women know their Star Trek/TV/film history and their opinions are always worth listening to. Love this podcast!!!

wval35 ,

This is Wonderful

I was looking for a female Star Trek podcast. Most tend to be male. I wasn’t expecting this wonderful group of black sci-fi sisters. This is fantastic

GALinReston ,

Fantastic

I popped over here because I saw the Melissa Navia episode referenced on her Instagram. I'm staying because it was so good and now I want to listen to them all. Great podcast from another OG Star Trek fan!
