Science Fiction Shorts

J. Arthur Wetenkamp

I read sci-fi stories to you while you drive to work, walk the dog, or try and fall asleep. Then maybe I give you my thoughts on the story, followed by you tweeting me your own commentary. We all become best friends and fly away in hover cars into a binary sunset.

  • Finally a podcast that truly understands Asimov

    It was so pleasant to hear the review. I hope you continue after The Najed Sun with Robots of Dawn, Robots and Empire. Then the entire Foundation series but in order if the over arching story not the order in whic they were written.

    Just finished your Naken Sun review. While Naked Sun is not as good as Caves of Steel, the rest if the series gets better and better. Most importantly you cannot read the original Foundation Trilogy before you read each of the following. These are critical to seein... more
