    The Sci-Fi Channel: A Primer
    Apr 8 2026

    We're Back! And with that we start a new mini series about The Sci-Fi Channel (SyFy, if ya nasty) and its wild diaspora.

    Something strange happened on old-school satellite TV: a channel appeared out of nowhere, looping wormholes and bright “screensaver” tunnels with no station ID, no ads, and no explanation. Then it teased an invasion and started a countdown clock. That mystery wasn’t pirate radio, it was the marketing fuse that lit the Sci-Fi Channel’s 1992 launch, and we can still feel the ripple effects today.

    This is a brief note from Podfest in Orlando earlier this year.
