LISTEN to the SciFi Thoughts podcast


Author and podcast host Lancer Kind will, for a few short minutes, tease and tantalize your mind with this genre from the future. SciFi has many dozens of sub genres with different story telling styles which attempt to bring new possibilities into how you see the world. My mission is to expand what science fiction means to you by exploring this genre that is diverse as the stars in the sky.

SciFi Thoughts will, like the James Web Telescope, draw focus on a discovery and tantalize you with thoughts on movies and literature through intelligent and engaging discussion.

Upcoming guests

Typically, each guest interview is turned into three to four laser focused episodes.  (And we use real lasers.)

Forecasted show order:

  1. Seattle Writer’s Cramp critique group is looking for members, world wide. The guests were Tim McDaniel and Steve Gurr.
  2. Three Body Problem series by Netflix
  3. Author, physicist, scientist Edward M Lerner tells us about two new hard science fiction novels that have freshly released—Life and Death on Mars, On the Shoals of Space-Time. And introduced his InterstellarNet series.
  4. Lancer interviews THE XENOPHOBES movie cast.

Guests, rest assured that when your episode goes live, Lancer will contact you via multiple social media channels.  If you’ve got a hot date–book launch or Kickstarter, for example–contact Lancer and he’ll make all possible effort to accommodate.  (You can contact him via phone/SMS if you have his number.  Otherwise, Twitter, FB, LinkedIn, or email–email has the slowest response time.)


Brilliant guests we’ve already had on the show. Click the album cover to listen to their series.
