This week on Ron’s Amazing Stories, we’re heading into space with two very different science fiction stories.
We begin with “Universe,” based on the classic story by Robert A. Heinlein. Imagine a gigantic spaceship traveling between the stars, where generations of people have lived and died aboard the ship. There’s just one problem: they’ve forgotten they’re on a spaceship at all.
Then on “As Read By”, Phil Chenevert reads “Project Hush” by William Tenn. It follows a top-secret Army mission to establish a military base on the Moon. But when the team arrives, they discover someone may have gotten there first.
Also this week, Q/A with Ron returns. Ron answers five listener emails covering X Minus One, listener-submitted stories, the return of author interviews, my interview with a former NBA All-Star, and where I find and restore the old-time radio programs heard on the podcast.
