We've had the Bad Batch series finale, the Tales of the Empire anthology episodes, trailers for the Acolyte and an interesting May the 4th promo video drop. IS it all still a dumpster fire?.......yeah
I'm seriously wanting to write this love story now.....
A friend of mine, Paul Avery Tindol, came out with a great scifi thriller! Hunting Snipe: and Other Notes on the East Texas Cattle Mutilations. I had the great pleasure of reading it before our chat and MAN I cannot recommend it enough! Paul and I actually studied theatre together at SFA, so its REALLY cool for me to see a colleague of mine create something as enthralling as this book!
There were a ton of interesting things going on that I wanted to talk about, so I summed them all up and did one episode instead of a bunch of smaller ones!
The latest hit show courtesy of Amazon Prime is out and wild: Fallout! If you havent carved out a few hours to burn through it like the radiation that permeates the wastelands of post apocalyptic America in the series, you definitely need to do so! Though I think the success of the show could potentially lead to something else......
I got to sit down and talk to a great friend of the show, author and voice over artist, Aaron Ryan, about his new book Dissonance Volume II: The Reckoning! Head on over to Amazon and pick it up, it is an absolute GREAT read!

ONE! SINGULAR SENSATION!!!..........Skipping down our evolutionary timeline, we can imagine pretty easily that the next drastic environmental change will be that our planet will have to contend with is: nuclear fallout. But how will human beings adapt?
Dealing with another foundational cornerstone in the bedrock of science fiction and its tropes, religion plays a HUGE part in whatever story it appears.
