Suzy And The Enforcer Act 2

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 26:12 — 36.0MB)

The Enforcer is wanted by the State as he travels through the Wasteland with a screaming, dirty and hungry Suzy by his side.

Season 5, Episode 1

Written by: Samaritan Dark Twitter @Samaritandark

We return to the post apocalyptic world where humanity’s fate relies in the hands of a rogue Enforcer.

Even though the Enforcer is mechanical and his mind is a system of AI components he understands that humans are sacred.

He travels with Suzy through the Wasteland doing his best to protect her. By doing this he’s defying his basic programming and the authority of the State.

We could all learn from the Enforcer, some government rules are immoral and go against the human soul.

Too often we’re programmed and refuse to think for ourselves, whatever our leaders dictate we fall in line like trained seals.

As fellow citizens of Earth we need to speak clearly, boldly and passionately before all of our freedoms are stripped away.

I only have 60 seconds before the angry mob breaks the glass and drags my body from the phone booth.

This is my attempt to create a show trailer. Some professional podcasters told me this is a good idea to attract more listeners but while I was recording I transported to 1985.

The new season is arriving later on this year along with a new name, Welcome To Earth Stories.

Do not adjust your channel, the show will be on the same feed but with a brand new cover.

Elevated Inferno **Bonus EP

Elevated Inferno **Bonus EP

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 44:41 — 61.4MB)

As you know I enjoy alien invasions, high speed car chases, and post apocalyptic worlds. Romance was never my thing until now.

You may accuse me of having a typical male brain, whatever that means. But I’m not one dimensional, I do like the softer things in life such as puppies and rainbows.

However romance novels were never my thing. I always thought of them as too sappy, too mushy, but when I read Elevated Inferno by Carlotta Ardell it changed my mind.

For one it’s not mushy and two it’s not sappy. It’s probably because the author is a Robotics Engineer so she doesn’t get lost in emotional dribble.

Yeah that’s right my special guest designs robots. How cool is that? Why would a Doctor in Robotics write a romance novel?

Many stories are distorted or forgotten by the machinery of time, on this bonus episode Author Brent Stark speaks of the unbelievable story of a tribe you may never have heard of.

Off Season

Episode is written by Brent Stark including the below synopsis

Some people claim the site that sits at the foot of the Appalachian Mountains is so beautiful and serene that it reaches up and touches the face of God. It’s a place covered with lush, green forests where crystal blue streams rush down the majestic hillsides, refreshing the land’s inhabitants.

But, on the other hand, some call it the saddest location in Ohio. Why? What happened here so long ago? Why haven’t many heard about this tragic location? Make sure you tune in to learn about the bravery and faith displayed by those in the Houses of Grace.

Elon Musk And The End Of The World

Elon Musk And The End Of The World

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 15:47 — 21.7MB)

How one billionaire sparked mass hysteria and what this means for writers.

You may have heard rumors of the sky falling and humanity torpedoing to its demise. Not from a rogue nation stockpiling weapons of mass destruction or from a solar flare threatening to reduce us to the stone age, but from one eccentric billionaire Elon Musk.

In the children’s story, Chicken Little, mass hysteria was at its peak. Little was convinced of the immediate apocalypse so he made it his mission to scream it from the rooftops.

Mass hysteria is a virus, it spreads its pestilence through social media and turns us into ravenous wolves.

What is the “unforgivable sin” of Elon Musk?

Free speech.

He wants everyone to share their views without the threat of being cancelled. He feels a thriving democracy is an exchange of ideas.

For writers this should be good news. It’s vital to listen and read opposing views, this is how we grow and become better earthlings.
