Used Claude to create a site for my sci-fi book club podcast. The reading schedule updates dynamically, and pulls links to each episode automatically. Took a bit of tinkering to set up, but I'm so impressed (with Claude and myself)! Check it out: www.loreparty.com/science-fict...

Our analysis of the Dune: Part Three trailer is out now. Some of my thoughts: 1. It's Hayt in that sarcophagus, Edric isn't in the movie 2. Scytale's role will expand, he'll be a primary antagonist 3. Alia will be more fanatical than in the book Listen: open.spotify.com/episode/44b9...

I’ve been chasing the high of first playing Mass Effect back in 2007 for almost 20 years. What sci-fi game do you think comes close to capturing that kind of world building and storytelling?

Really proud of today’s episode. Frank Herbert had a lot to say about our relationship to technology. So Leo and I dug through a mountain of contemporary research about AI to see if Herbert was on to something… open.spotify.com/episode/0ZP0...

Murderbot on Apple TV+ has been…interesting. I wasn’t quite expecting the show to take such a sitcom approach, but it’s not bad. Could dial down the overly-goofy comedy though. We’ll be covering it weekly on the pod: open.spotify.com/episode/6tEZ...

I paid sixty dollars for No Man's Sky nine years ago and they refuse to stop making the video game. I've begged them to go home to their families but they won't stop adding new kinds of weird little guys and like, optimizing the gentle patter of rain on an alien ocean. Please let me pay for a DLC

It’s so heartbreaking that The Witcher franchise has fallen into the hands of people who don’t respect the source material nor understand what makes the original stories great. (Talking about the Netflix adaptations, not the games. The games are incredible.)
