How technology and science are portrayed in movies and TV is always changing. Science fiction writers have dealt with this for years, but what about non-science fiction stories. How are these things treated in stories about our everyday lives?
Brent and Erik also check in about their writing. Brent is preparing for a new experiment that might become a book—”Five cities in five years.” And Erik talks about the first draft of a science fiction novel, tentatively titled “That Time in Venice.” If you want to skip the check-in and get right to the main topic, skip ahead to 3:45.
