The Three Hoarsemen
Hosted by Fred Kiesche, John E.O. Stevens, and Jeff Patterson
In the long and storied history of science fiction podcasts, never had the powers-that-be deigned it safe to allow John H. Stevens, Fred Kiesche, and Jeff Patterson to appear on the same panel discussion. “It would be worse than crossing the streams,” they said. “Violent weather would sweep the land, and cicadas emerge from the depths!” Okay—it’s more like visiting three cranky uncles in a run-down retirement home…
55 Solo Paul
Your Intrepid Heroes, Paul Weimer and Fred Kiesche, discuss ReaderCon, Gene Wolfe, blogging and podcasts.
With a hat tip to our mentor of erudite tomes, John Stevens and to Jeff Patterson (who, sadly, had to miss the conversation due to that silly “work” thing).

52 Jupiter and Beyond the Infinite
And we are back (so soon?, the plaintive cries arise) with a look at the ultimate science fiction film, 2001: A Space Odyssey, as a result of Fred’s multi-volume dive into various behind the scenes looks at the film, as well as a biography of Sir Arthur C. Clarke and some side jaunts into interests inspired by Clarke.
Along the way we also delve into comedy and the horror of a remake of the classic. It’s the Ultimate Log of the Ultimate Trip.
