The officially unofficial podcast for Foundation on Apple TV+. Each week we review the latest episode in detail and compare it to the book and other sci-fi.
When we talked with David S. Goyer, he told us that this episode was his favorite of the season. Now that we’ve seen it we might just agree. Join us on the podcast for a discussion of Foundation S01E08 “The Missing Piece”, including the political maneuvering and sci-fi concepts, from the cool to the creepy.
Join us for the podcast for some discussion about the potential spoilers dropped in the latest official podcast, the laws or robotics and much more as we consider your feedback for Foundation S01E07, Mysteries and Martyrs.
This episode split its time between the three going plot concerns, which we appreciated. The political maneuverings on The Maiden continue to excite us. What’s happening with Brother Dawn on Trantor is raising a lot of interesting questions about cloning while answering others. Things are also getting good on the Terminus side now that we know more about Invictus. Join us for discussion of Foundation S01E07 “Mysteries and Martyrs” on the podcast.
Find out what the audience had to say about Foundation S01E06 “Death and the Maiden” in this feedback edition of the podcast.
Last Friday we sat down (virtually) with David S. Goyer, the creator and executive producer of Foundation, to ask him some of the questions we’ve had about the show thus far, as well as the questions you submitted to us. Apologies to anyone whose question we didn’t get to and a big thank you to David for sharing his time with us. Respect and enjoy the interview.
This episode is more action-heavy than the previous ones and the potential consequences for Terminus are frightening. But maybe only half as frightening as the consequences that a certain artificial life form might experience after bowing to her moon goddess right in front of her clone god. Join us for the full discussion on the podcast.
For some reason we’re incapable of talking less. We tried to talk faster. Nothing worked. So, going forward, we’re going to be splitting off the feedback from the main discussion and analysis. It remains to be seen if that can get our episodes under 2 hours. Respect and enjoy the podcast.
The Empire might be absent from this episode but that didn’t keep us from appreciating what Foundation is doing in S01E05 “Upon Awakening”. Join us for the podcast to hear us discuss interests ranging from galactic calendar systems to the process of being deprogrammed after life-long indoctrination in a cult.
Another week, another strong episode of Foundation with S01E04. The mystery of Salvor Hardin continues to unfold as Terminus is threatened, but the real meaty stuff is once again happening on Trantor, including the slab of beef that is Lee Pace. And boy, do we sink our teeth in for a big ol’ bite with another near-2-hour episode.
We really enjoyed the ambitious approach to storytelling that Foundation is employing in its third episode, “The Mathematician’s Ghost”. The themes resonant throughout both times and places and every plot point and character seems to be a lens that can be looked through both ends of to reveal two different images. Join us for a…
