News about The Sci Phi Show

Posted in News on August 27th, 2007

Hi all, sorry for the latest of shows of late and the lack of outcasts.

I have a number of interesting outcasts coming up that I just need to find time to edit down. Unfortunately life gets in the way some time. I will work to at least get the regular show out if not the outcasts.

Thanks for everyones patience. Especially those in the forums where I am woefully behind on conversations.

Hopefully there will be a regular episode out in the next 24 hours, although it will be a break from the current Matrix series.

As you can see i have added the thermometer for tracking donations towards the conference fund. Thanks to Ed and Richard (of The Evil Atheist Conspiracy) for the current round of donations.

Also i’m working on the release of a quarterly science fiction and philosophy journal, that will be a paying market, contact me if you would be interested in submitting some fiction or a philosophy article for more details. (Like my life isn’t busy enough !)

Conference Information

Posted in News on August 10th, 2007

Hi all,

There is a conference being held at the end of March 2008 on science fiction and philosophy. It is being held at Cal State University in Fullerton. Which is near Disney Land. I am hoping to go to the conference and record a bunch of interviews and talks for The Sci Phi Show. However it is pretty expensive to go to the US. So I am asking if Sci Phi Show listeners would be willing to donate some cash to the show in order to allow me to get to the conference ?

I can minimise many of the costs of the trip but airfare isn’t one of them unfortunately. So please consider if you can spare a few dollars and I can give back to everybody in the form of information.

Thanks for taking the time to consider this.

Airfare is around $2000 to give you an idea of where I am trying to get too.
