“I have been reading Foundation for the first time since last year. The appleTV+ show has definitely got me all confused. This is super helpful to keep track of the book storyline and connect the dots.
I have definitely picked up a lot of side plots that I didn’t recognize at all!
Thank you!!”

“An insightful look at Issac Asimov’s Foundation trilogy. The podcast creator is obviously passionate fan of the Foundation series which shows with his thoughtful remarks on each section of the story.”

“This show is special, the books are paramount in Joels reading of the story and he doesn’t stray from Asimov’s words. It truly captures the magic of the books.”

“I cannot decide if I’m more excited about the new episodes of the Foundation TV show, or the Seldon Crisis podcast. I read the books multiple times, but don’t remember all the details and don’t really want to read them again right now.
This podcast summarizes the original Foundation books and...”Read full review »

“If you want a recap or entry into the universe of Isaac Asimov’s Foundation series, this is it.
So far this is a thoughtful and really well executed discussion with just the right amount of quotes from the series as well as context provided by the host.
Can’t wait to listen to more!”

“Foundation was my first foray into science fiction, and still my favorite. This podcast series is causing me to go back and reread the series. The narrator’s voice is so clear and dramatic, I want to drop everything and listen to all the episodes at once!”

“Before starting to listen this podcast I was a bit sceptic. Indeed, I am a true lover of Foundation as well as every piece of art written by Asimov and emphasising his work is not a piace of cake. This podcast achieves the most important task. It is able to give you an outstanding recap of every...”Read full review »

“With the coming “Foundation” series on Apple TV+, I have been going back to reread Isaac Asimov’s classic Foundation series of novels, starting with the original novel. Joel does such a great job of not only giving some background information on Asimov and the novels themselves, but he expertly...”Read full review »

“I’m 3 Episodes in and having a TON of fun. I’m an Asimov newbie - confess to never having heard of the famous trilogy- and finding this podcast a great “gateway drug”. The pod is providing the perfect balance of storytelling, and of context to Asimov, his writing, and the times in which he...”Read full review »

“I’ve been thinking it’s time for a reread. Joel’s artful summary is pushing me toward that even quicker. I suspect we both read it the first time, about the same time.
Shout out to the accompanying music. A good fit.”

“I think about the ideas from Asimov’s Foundation series all the time. The narration in “Seldon Crisis” is excellent, and I find myself picking up details that I had long ago forgotten. A welcome way to experience or relive the story.”
