What up Fermented Folks!

Today we debate one of the granddaddies of Cyber-Punk, Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash! 

This novel not only coined the term 'Meta-Verse,' but also paved the way for an entire sub-genre of sci-fi/fantasy. Many of the things Stephenson imagined in this book have all but come true, but that doesn't mean we're going to like it over at Fermented Fiction... Come on by and see what we think if you dare ;)

What up Fermented Folks!

Today we debate the academy award-winning animation series Arcane.

I know there are LOTS of people out there that are absolutely bananas about this show, but I must warn ya’ll… there is one amongst us who was not swept up in the hype… be prepared for all of that.

Happy New Year to all!

See you next week :)

Hey Fermented Folks! 

Since it's our last week of December, we have an exceptional treat for you. It is our honor and privilege to present SK Ehra, author of two novels in her five-novel series! 

Today we will focus on her first book, Call of the Crossroads. This supernatural mystery/thriller tale weaves a compelling narrative through the eyes of well-researched, true-to-life characters and a highly unique take on the supernatural and communication with the dead. We at Fermented Fiction highly recommend this one and hope you enjoy our chat with the author. 

Please support SK by, first of all, buying and reading her book 

After you've done that, please head over to her Goodreads and leave a review, because that's the biggest thing, aside from reading, that you can do for ANY author, indie or otherwise :). 

Thank you so much for being on the show SK! 

To our listeners, thank you for being here, happy holidays, and we will see you in the new year! 

Hey there Fermented Folks, 

This week we dive into somewhat new territory for our show. We are trying out a romance! Woah... We shall see how this goes. \

Though Travis is a romantic at heart, I am certainly not. Still, I found lots to love and lots to dislike about this tale. Let's find out what we both thought through forced enrollment and our open-table discussion segments! See you there.

What up Fermented Folks?! 

Thanks for joining us yet again on Fermented Fiction. 

This week we discuss a movie that might well be the greatest Christmas/Horror movie of all time. It might also be a terribly outdated, and sub-par abomination that was forced ruthlessly down the throats of the American youth, who had no way of knowing that it was absolute trash. 

Find out what we really believe in this week's Christmas-themed episode :).

What up Fermented Folks? 

This week we discuss the classic fantasy novel by C.S. Lewis. 

We're talkin' personification of all them animals, we're talkin' about winter without Christmas, we're talkin' Lion Jesus going hard in the proverbial paint for a revolution.

Hey there Fermented Followers,

Thanks for tuning in for another Featured Author of the Month episode! This month I’m very excited because we have the pleasure, nay, the honor of welcoming to Fermented Fiction (still called Sinister Soup at the time of this recording) the owners, founders, and masterminds behind the indie publishing house Sterling and Stone.

These guys are three of the trailblazers for modern indie publishing. Between the three of them they’ve written hundreds and hundreds of books (literally). Some of the big hits include the “The Beam” series, “Yesterday’s Gone” series, the “Unicorn Western” series and too many others to count. Today we will pay a little extra attention to the “Fat Vampire” series, as it is soon to be a TV show!

Thank you so much to Johnny B. Truant, Sean Platt, and David Wright for coming on the show! We wish you all the luck as you continue forward with your myriad of amazing projects.

To learn more about these three guys and about Sterling and Stone, go check out the website: https://sterlingandstone.net/

After you’ve done that, make sure to pick out a series that sounds fun to you and read some of these guys' amazing stories. I recommend Namaste as a great stand-alone intro into the world of Johnny and Sean, or if you want a great taste of what David brings to the table, you can hardly beat the “Yesterday’s Gone” series.

Hey there Fermented Family,

This week we discuss Stephen King’s Fairy Tale. Not the first foray into fantasy from this master of the horror craft, but his most recent. Stephen describes this as a passion/Covid project of his. Let’s see where one of the darkest minds of our generation when during one of the generation's darkest time periods…

Thanks for listening! See you next week.

What up Fermented folks? 

Thanks for tuning into another week of Fermented Fiction. This week, we discuss Richard Curtis's 2013 hit Romcom, "About Time." A story about time travel, love, family, and the consequences of getting involved in any of those things. 

As always, I won't spoil anything in our description. Suffice it to say that any story centered around both time travel and romantic relationships is guaranteed to be rife with moral, philosophical, and literary conundrums. We'll get into some of those today :). 

Hope ya'll enjoy the episode, thanks for listening, and we shall see you next week!
