Welcome to The STARLOG Podcast!
This week, your host Jordan Hoffman is proud to introduce himself and podcasting XO Dave Gonzales, reintroduce STARLOG and begin The STARLOG Podcast.
In celebration of STARLOG's 50th Anniversary in 2026, the team behind FANGORIA is bringing STARLOG through a portal to our future. Later this year, STARLOG will be available as a print magazine in bookstores, on newsstands, and at the supermarket checkout.
This week, STARLOG Editor-in-Chief Annalee Newitz joins the podcast to talk about the contents of the upcoming STARLOG Magazine and how it's changed from the original publication. They also discuss founding the Gawker Media futurist blog io9, their non-fiction book Scatter, Adapt, and Remember: How Humans Will Survive a Mass Extinction, and how a train can love a cat in their fiction novel The Terraformers.
Next week, Disclosure Day's screenwriter David Koepp joins us to talk about aliens and Steven Spielberg.
