Stars End S5E13 - The Podcasts They Had


Listen Later

In which we talk about "Cal" and "The Fun They Had" with special guest Rachel from the Menuscript Podcast.


"Cal" has been called "the last great Asimov short story" and it looks like it's his very last robot story. Cal is a robot who learns how to write ficton and over the course of the story becomes an odd sort of Asimov avatar.


"The Fun They Had," is one of the Great and Glorious Az's most reprinted works featuring a student thinking back to how great school must have been back in the long, long ago of the 20th century.


We're joined by special guest Rachel Schwartzbard who has just started her own podcast, the Menuscript, which is excellent. She'll talk about it in this episode. You don't want to miss that and afterward, you'll want to checkout her podcast!

The stories and Rachel's pocast can be found right here.
