Podside Picnic

Is GWAR a band and artist collective out of Richmond, Virginia or are they the vessels for a cosmic race of barbarian demigods? Porque no los dos?

Pete and Karlo chat about Michael Swanwick's fabulist science fiction novel, Stations of the Tide. Is a character named only "The Bureaucrat" to be trusted?

Hit Factory's back, which means Aaron and Carlee are here to chat about Jordan Peele's newest film, Nope (2022). Come get the takes while they're hot!

We get together to chat about Star Trek's most recent show, Strange New Worlds. Listen in and get ready to punch it

We gripe a bit about who put all this sand in our beer as we talk about The Sandman and the recent Netflix adaptation

We're back to read the short stories and novelettes we didn't already cover in our Nebula Predictions episode, this time with special guest and World's Greatest Writer, June Martin (if you don't believe us, visit her at https://theworldsgreatestwriter.com/)

Welcome to the Year of the New Sun! Join us in our read-along of chapters XVI - XXV of The Sword of the Lictor. Listen as we talk about Severian's journey beyond the gates of Nessus, and if you'd like to continue the discussion consider joining our Podside Picnic discord.

For our last Augustageddon episode we talk about James Tiptree Jr.'s (as Racoona Sheldon) The Screwfly Solution, where a harrowing new pandemic sweeps the globe.

It's that time again - time to unlock the next step in our journey through the Year of the New Sun.

Just as you can't read a Gene Wolfe story, only re-read it, so we hope it goes with podcasts.

Ready for an early live-action Transformers knock-off? For our next Augustageddon entry, we discuss the Stuart Gordon/Joe Haldeman (yes, THAT Joe Haldeman) collaboration, Robot Jox (1989). Crash and burn, folks. . . Crash and burn.
