Fun and Witty

Expect lots of fun if you’re a new listener. Abu’s an old friend as I’ve enjoyed his Gom Jabber podcast for a few years. He brings the same conversational style here with both funny and introspective comments. Looking forward to his new partnership with Obssa. Best wishes guys!

Entertaining and easy to follow!

I love the vibe of this podcast! Feels like a we’re all friends sitting on the couch talking about the latest group favorite. Great for those of us that love the world building of sci-fi books and films and want to dive even deeper!
