  • A New Thing! Sci-Fi Book Club Episode 001 - The Three Body Problem
    2024/01/14

    This is a pilot episode for a podcast discussing modern science fiction novels, originally recorded in August 2022. We were hoping to record and release more of these, but life, as it does, got in the way a little bit.


    The release of the trailer for the Netflix adaptation of 3 Body Problem prompted us to dig this out and share it with the world. If you like what you hear and want more, email scifibookclubpodcast@gmail.com or jackrbkirby@gmail.com.

  • Episode 31: Live from the Greenhouse
    2020/06/09

    A very chilled entry, I'm just chuntering to myself whilst pottering in the greenhouse. Perhaps this is good background noise? If anyone wants to put some ambient sounds on this, that would be dope. I also try some AMSR whispered counting at some point, if you're into that x
