Episode 150 turns out to be a pretty well filled out episode. This week I play a cut from the Thru You internet project from artist Kutiman that may have started with a simple enough idea - finding music that you could play along with on the internet. What he ended up with was what may well be a future genre in the music industry. Because what has happened is a completely different sound and then again the same sound but made differently. I play the cut "Just a woman" which is a fairly standard pop / balard but it is the way the song was produced that is truly revolutionary. Two stories this week. First off, a fantasy dinner with Tesla and Mark Twain, discussing the woes of the world and from Michael Cassutt part one of his Nebula Nominated story Skull Valley. From the blog I read about a novel approach to preventing a world killing asteroid from hitting Earth again!
Science Fiction, Science Fiction and more science fiction! If it's on TV in print in the movies or even audio science fiction, We try to cover whatever is happening. Also the science of today that might influence new Science fiction.

Beam Me Up Paul Cole
Beam Me Up continues to grow. This new growth puts demands on our bandwidth. To keep up with demand I have added more bandwidth and storage space - all of which costs. If you enjoy the podcast version of Beam Me Up and would like to help defray some of the expense, please consider making a small donation by selecting the Pay Pal button below. Thanks! The theme of the show is discussion of current science fiction material. I have ongoing conversations about current, new and classic science fiction - what is currently in the theaters, in print and television. Also I like to include science articles that are just out there far enough that I think might influence new science fiction. As time permits, I play as much quality audio science fiction as I can. At least one or two stories during the show. Often I use fiction that has been released under Creative Commons or that material that might be in the public domain but often I ask the authors directly if I can broadcast their short stories. For additional information and or more material and links, please visit the show's blog at www.wrfrbeameup.blogspot.com If you have a short science fiction story and would like to have us read it on-air, please contact us.
