Editors’ Retrospective

Editors’ Retrospective

Editors’ Retrospective

Hello and welcome my survivor friends to a special wrap up episode where I sit down with the three editors of After the Apocalypse to have a retrospective chat about our experiences over the last half-decade.

So, if you’re new to the show, this is not a narrative episode. The narrative starts at season one, episode one. Your podcast app should let you sort on ‘oldest first’ and you will see that.

Today, I’ll give you this brief intro and then the chat and no outro.

That being said there aren’t really any blatant spoilers in here if you want to listen to our chat – It is forty six minutes long so perfect for that extra-long car ride or two-mile walk.

For you time travelers, it is the end of July 2025. We have completed the five-season arc of the main show.

Now we are pivoting.

‘Pivoting’ was all the rage in the 90’s when I was a startup guy. They wrote books about it!

What is said pivot? Well….we will be spotlighting new writers and audio performers on this feed going forward.

What does that mean to you? More high-quality apocalypse audio stories for your tender discriminating ears!

I will drop the first story on August first (yes, a week from today) with a fun story with some unique characters – you are going to love it!

What should I call it?

The ‘Apocalypse stories’ podcast?

I kinda dig ‘The Apocalypse Café’.

Anyhow – if you are a write that has some good stories let me know. If you fancy yourself an audio performer – especially female voices – also let me know.

I’ll probably end up needing slush readers as well when the undead hordes of starving artists find that I’m accepting submissions.

You can email me directly at cyktrussell at gmail dot com or use the contact form on my website oldmanapocalypse.com And yes, I know I need to redo the website. I have a long list of needs to dos.

A few technical updates before I go. There was briefly a feature on Acast, my hosting service, that provided early release and ad-free options. Acast pulled the rug out from under that and pivoted (see what I did there?) the service to another app – but it no longer supports Ad-free or early release – pain in the ass.

So one of my projects is to create Ad-free versions of the show and put them up on my Patreon site.

I also need to go back through and clean up my outros from the past five years and remove all the out of date references, etc.

Stay tuned as I work my way through my task backlog and enjoy my summer vacation! I’m reading a bunch of books and watching a lot of content and listening to even more books and starting to get antsy bout writing something new – but I have to clean the kitchen a bit before I start any new meals.

So as the burning sun sinks low, casting a heat shimmering shadow across the valley floor, we see sings of habitation down there. And we move slowly down the slope to investigate.

Come with me now on a new adventure as we keep surviving.

Interview - Fran Tabor

Interview - Fran Tabor

Interview: Fran TaborHello my survivor friends. Today we present a 25 minute interview of science fiction author and all-around interesting thinker, Fran Tabor. Don’t worry, we are getting close to the end of our summer vacation. Soon, you and I, and countless others, will be walking hand in hand towards the blinding sunlight of Season 5. I am working on the script for season 5. And by ‘working on’ I mean running out of time and worrying with intense apprehension at how we are going to extract ourselves from the story. We need to give our characters compelling finality to their arcs, we need to resolve a number of tensions, we need to answer several questions and do it all in an entertaining and fulfilling way. A world class way. I always get it done. I will power through and I’m sure we’ll all be satisfied. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Stoned Genius Interview

The Stoned Genius Interview

The Stoned Genius InterviewHello my survivor friends. Today I present a far-ranging, long form interview that I did for the Stoned Genius Podcast. The TLDNR is a) If you are looking for the main narrative this is not that. Season 5 will start up again at the end of the summer. And b) this is me being interviewed on another podcast and is over an hour and a half long – so you have been warned and c) I’ll drop the full interview here and will not put in any outro comments. The interviewer is Rodney – “the Stoned Genius”. He produces the eponymous podcast and interviews all kinds of different and interesting people. I enjoyed having a conversation with him. I don’t get enough opportunities to interact with interesting people. I used to travel more and could scratch that itch. These days I’m felling a bit of cabin fever. I need to find a way to get out more and interact. Send me suggestions on groups I should join. This interview covers a lot of ground. Rodney was more interested in my long-distance running exploits than my writing and podcasting. So, get ready to learn some things about me that you probably didn’t know. Rodney’s a curious soul. That’s what I love about podcasting. Any curious soul can find and connect with their tribe. If like what he’s doing you can find more at the Stoned Genius Podcast.…Show description: The Stoned Genius" is a podcast that blends humor and cannabis culture, exploring a wide range of topics through the lens of genius enjoying marijuana. Hosted by Ro Martin the show features discussions, interviews, and even comedic skits, all infused with a lighthearted and often irreverent tone.Like I said – I’ll skip the outro comments on this episode because the interview is lengthy. Here are my updates: You can find everything you need at my website oldmanapocalypse.com. I post all the links to everything I talk about there.

Interview Roger Smith - Robotics and SciFihttps://www.rddsmith.comHello my apocalypse friends, Hope you are doing well. In this episode we treat you to an interview with Robert Smith where we talk about robotics and AI. For those of you time traveling in from the future, it is June of 2024 and we are between seasons 4 and 5 of the narrative. As is my habit I take a break from the main narrative over the summer months, but fill the airwaves, or I guess that would be internet-waves with other things. For this summer I’m going to run a number of interviews. Some where I am the interviewer, like this one, and some where I am even the interviewee. So – if you’re not interested in that, feel free to skip ahead to season 5. ...Website -> http://www.oldmanapocalypse.com Buy me Coffee -> https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cyktrussellSubscribe page on Acast -> https://plus.acast.com/s/after-the-apocalypsePodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/after-the-apocalypseFacebook group -> https://www.facebook.com/groups/oldmanapocalypsePatreon to support the show -> https://www.patreon.com/AftertheApocalypseKindle Vella Story -> https://www.amazon.com/kindle-vella/story/B09LTRC8RHMerch Store -> https://www.teepublic.com/stores/after-the-apocalypse Twitter -> cyktrussell@twitter.comRunRunLiveWebsite -> https://www.runrunlive.comPodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/runrunlive Hosted on Acast.

After the ApocalypseA pandemic survival storySeason four, Episode twenty one – “The End Days” ...The next day the old man made it to the campus. He watched Zane attempt to skip stones across the campus pond with Wili. She still couldn’t get it right and, instead, turned to shove Zane from behind towards the water. Zane caught his balance, laughed, and pushed back. The shoving devolved into a giggling wrestling match. The old man turned to his son Paul and said, “Someone’s going to need to have the talk with those two or you’re going to be up to your armpits in babies around here.” ...Website -> http://www.oldmanapocalypse.com Buy me Coffee -> https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cyktrussellSubscribe page on Acast -> https://plus.acast.com/s/after-the-apocalypsePodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/after-the-apocalypseFacebook group -> https://www.facebook.com/groups/oldmanapocalypsePatreon to support the show -> https://www.patreon.com/AftertheApocalypseKindle Vella Story -> https://www.amazon.com/kindle-vella/story/B09LTRC8RHMerch Store -> https://www.teepublic.com/stores/after-the-apocalypse Twitter -> cyktrussell@twitter.com Hosted on Acast.
