Joss Whedon & Firefly
Johhhhhhn Cena prank call. Fox’s predilection for cancelling the most-loved shows. Viewing orders.
Hard and soft scifi
Joss Whedon doesn’t care about the science. Star system design without FTL. A call-in from Adrian Falcone.
Sci-Fi western
From cyberpunk to westerns. Frontier living.
Culture and language
Language evolution on generation ships. Creoles. Joss’ poetic Rialogue.
Reavers
The mythology and the more reasonable backstory. Samuel Mumby calls in to express his appreciation for the former. “Who does the dishes?”
Religion
Sci-fi treatments of religion by Whedon and others.
