What on earth does science have to do with science fiction? Is science fiction about science? Is it fiction that takes a scientific approach to fiction?
Without getting into the tedium of multiple possible definitions of science fiction, Colin and Phil explore what they expect of something labelled "science fiction". What you can expect is a rambling conversation that touches on philosophy, physics, logic, time travel, and much more.
We also have our usual quiz, and our dash through the past, present and future of our favourite genre.
