Mine was "The Mote in God's Eye" by Niven and Pournelle.

Mine was Pohl's "Gateway".  Why is this not a movie btw?

Eddie, good to see you here on the other side of midnite.  Well done man, putting in a full Gabcast show and still goin strong.  I expect this of Jaz, being in some alternate Aussie timeline, but you get extra credit.
Hi Eddie. I really enjoyed my first time today

no..they were just writing stories Dick..nothing more

That's debatable. Herbert definitely used his works to promote ecological issues.

"Gateway?" I thought SyFy was turning it into a series.

really? feels more like a conversation to me

I don't know, just the way he asked Amy how she became a fan was really condescending. It gave off the vibe of "How could a girl like Sci-Fi." and then their little disagreement.

Ok so it seems Hoagie read Foundation, arguably Asimov's most important work.  Did he read others?  Inquiring minds want to know.

I would agree with you IF he hadn't of asked Tim the same question a moment later.

Don't slack. You're doing so great with the show




Hoagland called Isaac Asimov from the museum phone when he was 19, just because he could?
