First, thanks for signing-up. Maybe you signed up because of reading my novel, novella, or short stories. Maybe, we met at a con or book signing, or because of a newsletter giveaway, or you enjoy learning about new creators (Music, Books, Comics, etc). Maybe you signed-up because you enjoy going down the Rabbit Hole of Research and learning about the science in fiction. Or you’re a friend or family member.

However you got here, I am grateful that you have taken time to read my newsletter, listen to the podcast, and thanks for hanging in there with me over these last couple years as my writing career takes off. And if you are not signed up, or want to tell someone else to sign up here is a handy subscribe and share buttons (so go tell all your friends; sharing is caring):

And Now a Podcast!

Welcome! The Rabbit Hole of Research Podcast will be dropping soon! So excited to share science and pop culture with you. You can listen to the Podcast on most providers (Apple, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon, etc), the Substack app, in a browser or from this email!

Who Are We?

We are Jotham (Joe), a research mad scientist and author; Nick, roaster of the coffee bean, entrepreneur and pop culture guru; and sometimes Georgia, librarian, storyteller, and print maker.

So, What is this Rabbit Hole of Research Podcast?

It’s like playing a game of Telephone, where we will start in one place and let the conversation lead us down the winding scenic road exploring the science in science fiction, separating the facts from the Handwavium. We’ll have a little fun and you’ll learn a few facts you can use to impress your friends at a party or use as a conversation starter to go down your own rabbit holes.

It will not just be us rambling, fumbling and tumbling down the rabbit hole, but we will invite creators, thinkers and innovators on to talk about their research, creative process and join the lively conversation exploring the quirky science in fiction.

We know you have many choices of entertainment, so we will keep the episodes short, about the time it takes to drink a tasty beverage. So, please join us on this journey down the rabbit hole.

When Can I Expect The First Episodes?

NOW!

Episode 1 (Gaba Girl and Reanimation) and Episode 2 (We Talking about AI) will drop together. We should publish an episode every two weeks or so at first, but as we get a routine we will get to weekly. And we are planning a little launch party on February 28th, 2024 5:30-7pm at Bean Me Up Roastery in Munster, IN!

When Will The First Guests be on? And Can I Be a Guest?

So, the first guest will make an appearance in Episode 3. And sure if you want to be a guest, just drop me an email!

What About the Newsletter?

Even though I’ve been on a little Rabbit Hole of Research Newsletter vacation, don’t worry the newsletter will return this month (Feb 10th) with writing updates (like what now that my publisher closed), when will my new book go on submission to publishers, and what I’m reading, listening, watching, etc.

As always, thanks for the support! I couldn’t do this without you!

Cheers!
