About this listen

Join us in Fevers and Physicians in Space, where we delve into the intersection of health and the cosmos across a series of captivating stories. In the first segment, Pandemic by Jesse F. Bone, a world consumed by a deadly pandemic raises questions about the real cure. Next, Kurt Vonneguts 2BR02B challenges the desire for immortality and its consequences. Charles Beaumonts The Beautiful People explores societal pressures of beauty, while Lester del Reys Operation Distress tells of a solitary man in space grappling with a fatal illness that could threaten Earth. As the journey unfolds, we encounter tales of medical ethics, innovation, and the bizarre realities of health in the universe, culminating in a thought-provoking exploration of what it means to be human in a world filled with pathogens, beauty standards, and the quest for eternal life.
