    Epic Heinlein Dimension X epi w/an edifying preamble. Excellent again, I2R & much-appreciated. It is this listener's hope that you'll add additional episodes of DX, X-1, CBSRMT etc at your leisure (& by "at your leisure" I mean make that sh-t for now lol).
    Also: The inclusion of scripts is a nice touch, especially useful for total DX geeks and those who prefer to read along including the hearing-impaired.

    Very good. I understand his longing to go to the moon.

    yes, "Bob" Heinlein was tops in "hard" science fiction -- physics in stories is ~ plausible

    To record the ahow for other time zones they cut large 18" records called transcriptions. That's why its scratchy.

    Brilliant. I was introduced to Heinlein during a Greyhound Bus trip across the U.S. Methuselahs Children (If I got the title right). Also brilliant is the advance warning about the 'noise' from the recordings. Simple truth: I was able to follow along to the end and am glad for it. Great job and thanks for being brave to submit this!

      Cool. I was introduced to Heinlein at an early age via my father's extensive library which included a myriad sci-fi authors' material including PK Dick, Bradbury, Heinlein, Asimov , Sturgeon et al and while at age seven I didn't fully "grok" every nuance and salient plot point, each story and novel made an impression on me including Stranger in a Strange Land, Venus on the Half Shell (which made me wish I was the protagonist!), "The Veldt" (and other stuff from The Illustrated Man), Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, A Scanner Darkly, and so on. As I matured, I revisited every one of these authors' works and realized through the lens of age, education and experience just how prescient, relevant, often amusing and amazing in general these works are.
      So yeah, what you said: Brilliant!

      @@michaelkottler Friday got me! It was then I recognized those writers were holding back. I've been to Comic-Cons since the late 70s - and the last 20 years solid (for various reasons). My point (boast) is that I was able to meet with Bradbury during an LA Museum "lecture" he gave in the early 90s. Give or take. What charmed me about him was that he was charmed by me. Oh. My. My ultimate take away was him saying to me - "Please, my friend, please just don't stop writing - you'll figure it out." Me: Yessir! :0) Thanks for the thoughts.
