Show Notes

We finish our month of gratitude by saying, “Thank you!” to David, who supports this podcast at the highest level on Patreon! David requested that we listen to “The Martian Chronicles” from Dimension X! Thanks, David! Ray Bradbury’s famous anthology of interconnected stories presents the colonization of the red planet and explores the impact it has on humanity. Is Mars the perfect place to watch the end of humanity? Can all of these stories really be condensed down to thirty minutes? Will David appreciate our jokes about Oslo? Listen for yourself and find out!
