31.) Our Thanksgiving Special!
(Recorded on 15 November 2023.)

Austin had gone out of his way to make a fantastic dinner for his 20 Minutes Into The Future family. They would like to have nothing to do with it, in any way, shape, or form.

Heather’s Holiday Playlist is, once again, here to help us deal with unwanted family this time of year.

Austin spent too much time on something no one wants to enjoy. Again.

We encourage you to help with our Patreon Fundraiser, where we are working with Michael Cassutt to create an audio-drama version of his lost vintage Max Headroom script, “Families.” So if you help support Austin Rich so he doesn’t have to punch a clock, then we can get more of this kind of material to you, quickly.

In our next episode, we will be offering our promised conversation about the film Blade Runner, which seems to only be available to buy or rent at this time, though who can say how long that will be? There are a number of other places to find it, too, so check it out.

29.) It’s Halloween In The Fringes!
(Recorded on 20 October 2023.)

It looks like Heather and Austin have decided to go… trick or treating in The Fringes!? Oh no! This can only lead to a drunken night at Caligula’s, where Heather has taken over the jukebox. Hopefully the good music will protect us from Bruegel & Mahler.

(The voice of our announcer is none other than Xeres of Xeron himself! The doorman was played by Imaginos.)

Heather’s Holiday Playlist is most definitely below.
