Join Ben Avery and guest host Kerry Nietz, author of AMISH VAMPIRES IN SPACE, as they talk about a rogue computer that wants to use our trio of heroes to become a “real boy”. This unusual episode of THE STARLOST has some interesting ideas and some poor execution . . . which perhaps means it’s not all that unusual.
In this episode we talk about:
* The Littlest Hobo (of course)
* Star Trek (of course)
* Space 1999
* The Forbin Project
* AI and AI run amuck
* Harlan Ellison (but actually a different Ellison topic than just his dislike for The Starlost . . . although we talk about that too . . .)
