Science Friction with Asterios Kokkinos

THIS WEEK'S MISSION: If you're anything like me, you've often wondered, "Where's Katie Sackhoff?" She killed it as Starbuck on BSG...so where'd she go? In this episode...WE FIND OUT! THIS WEEK'S CREW: SF023 stars two of my favorite podcasters: Kevin Cole & Jeff Pennington. Kevin DM's a D&D podcast called Pretend Friends, [https://pretendfriends.libsyn.com/] and Jeff runs a Star Trek podcast called M-Class [https://soundcloud.com/user-422052834]. I love both of these dudes, and after you listen, you will too!

We're back! After a long hiatus spent making 983 other podcasts, Science Friction warps in with all-new episode! And this time, we embrace the NEW. Forget that crusty ol' TNG – this week, we review episodes of 2018's hottest sci-fi shows, including Lost In Space, The Expanse and Altered Carbon. Never heard of those shows? Me neither – I googled "new sci-fi that the kids like" and just rolled with it, baby!

THIS WEEK'S MISSION:   THE GREAT VOYAGER DEBATE!!   No joke: my two guests Marly Halpern-Graser [https://twitter.com/marlyhg] & Josie Campbell [http://www.twitter.com/CozyJamble] love Voyager. Josie likes it more than Deep Space Nine, which is insane to me, but god damn if she didn't make some pretty compelling points. We spend over a goddamn hour REALLY hashing out Voyager.   It's an intense thrill ride of non-stop pedantry, ONLY ON SCIENCE FRICTION!!!     THIS WEEK'S CREW:   Marly Halpern-Graser     |     @MarlyHG [https://twitter.com/marlyhg] Josie Campbell     |     @CozyJamble [http://www.twitter.com/CozyJamble] PRODUCED BY ZWICK!!!

THIS WEEK'S MISSION: I talk with two of my favorite people – animation writers Marly Halpern–Graser [https://twitter.com/MarlyHG] & Josie Campbell [https://twitter.com/CozyJamble] school me on how to write for Batman, The Teen Titans, and pretty much all the DC superheroes that you've ever seen on Cartoon Network. Plus: we talk about how we're GOING to talk about Voyager, but never get around to it, so you'll hear that in the NEXT episode!
