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:
- Richard Sparks leverages love of video games to author a book series that mashes up gaming culture, fantasy, and role playing: New Rock, New Role, and New Rock, New Realm
- Lancer interviews THE XENOPHOBES movie cast and crew.
- William Preston tells about his pulp fiction “The Old Man” series.
- Poetic speculative fiction of Tlotlo Tsamaase, author of Womb City.
- Author Alan Smale tells about his second book in the Apollo Rising alternate world series, RADIANT SKY
- Yaroslav Barsukov, a physicist-turned-writer born in Cold War-era Moscow, tells of his genre-defying speculative fiction.
- Raven Oak tells about her space opera books: CLASS-M EXILE, and THE ELDEST SILENCE
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.)
