In our first sci-fi video we came to a single unifying definition that we felt expressed the breadth of sci-fi. This time we're taking a look at the genre's history to show why we chose that definition. Audible ➤ http://amzn.to/2xlMBM8 Join the community for discussion and daily posts!

We take apart stories to see what makes them tick, then recycle what we find to create our own. Every month we make a video discussing what we've discovered, a list of interesting ideas, and then, finally, an original short story that makes use of all the new material.
