Ep 87 - Not Till We Are Lost

It’s time to check in on the Bobs and see what has been happening in the Universe. Not a lot really, well if you don’t count the fact the Skippy’s have created a true AI. Or that Howard and Bridgette are exploring a new race of beings. Oh and Bob is helping to set up the “Quiniverse.” Bill & Gar might have figured out FTL travel. Faith is causing problems again. Just kidding, all of our old friends are up to more than I can possibly write here so let’s get into it with Bobiverse book 5, Not Till We Are Lost by Dennis E. Taylor

Ep 80 - Wool

We’ve all heard someone say something to the effect of, “that’s just how we do it and always have.” Imagine that being applied to everything in your life; who is allowed to have children, who is in control of the government, why can no one go outside? Now imagine even asking those questions would get you executed. Welcome to the world in the Silo, based on the book Wool by Hugh Howey

Ep 69 - The Overstory

There is an old saying about not being able to see the forrest for the trees.

This month we discuss Richard Power’s Pulitzer Prize winning novel about how saving trees is the only way we can save ourselves.
