EPISODE 40: Four Way Bradbury

"How deep was the well back then?"

-- Kevin

We are a sci-fi podcast and we'd be remiss in our duties if we did not, as some point, talk about the genius that is Ray Bradbury.  The man that shaped the ideal of mainstream sci-fi and influenced generations to tell their own stories on Mars and beyond.

Kevin and George unpack six of Bradbury's short stories and talk about the man, his influence on their own lives and where they see his work touching the work of others.

Also, is Intern Tony actually calling us back...on the air?!
