Something you don't see every day
It's nice to see more genre fiction podcasts. I thnk the world is large enough for many, many more of them. With "Alienethos", a brand new podcast that appears to be only a few months old, the creator is treading on new ground: ethics in science fiction. That's a refreshing change.
From the Alienethos website:
We’re really excited to present to you a new show by alienEthOS. alienEthOS: Morality Bites. This is a smaller show that will feature a moral dilemma or ethical quandary that a character finds themself faced with. We will turn it over to the listeners to tell us what they would do and why. This show is completely yours and we encourage voicemail and responses on the forums
This is an interesting, almost exciting, direction to get into with a web program; I applaud the author's notion to explore not only the
what and the
how but also the
why in popular literary genres-- sometimes it pays to ask basic questions about right and wrong. I hope the show lives up to the promise.
