This month we read and talked about the Strugatsky brothers influential sci-fi classic ‘Roadside Picnic’. We all really enjoyed this one and its not difficult to appreciate why it became a classic and has inspired countless authors, movie makers (Tarkovsky’s movie ‘Stalker’ is based on the novel) and game developers (S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Shadow of Chernobyl is loosely based on the novel too).

It’s here or wherever you get your podcasts from.

One thing to note - we’re leaving Spotify after May, we can’t carry on contributing, even in our small way, to a company that does shitty things to musicians and who’s ex-CEO invests in AI and AI weapons companies.
